Well I've hauled a CAT once before. A little Cat loader with steel tracks, cab and a rear backhoe. Est. weight was 25,000 lbs. Parked just right on the trailer it won't put much weight on the truck and the truck will pull it. Slow going getting going and over hills but it'll pull. Single axle truck would be a little harder but I think with the right trailer and the Cat parked on it right, it would be possible.

As one member posted, I don't see any chains holding it down. 
It's either "photo-chopped" or that guy is a bigger moron than they're giving him credit for.

I don't think it could be photo chopped, look at the trees, you couldn't do that. He's got it sitting pretty far back on that trailer. Most of the weight is probably on the trailer. Still though he should have something on that rear hitch to both sides.

My Dodge would have done it single wheeled. I hauled near that regularly. Whats the big deal? He has the brakes on in the picture, that would send the front down some and level it out.
