I've seen hitches, receivers, rear bumpers, and front portions of frames ripped off. I've even seen frames bend and rear/front ends ripped out. I've never seen a ball break, and I've been involved in lots of really quick and large shock loads during recovery.
I've always carried a purpose-built recovery strap and d-ring shackles. Most people just use chains. I don't like being around in that situation, but a lot of times, they don't have the option of using something designed for the purpose of yanking.
Eta: When I'm advising, I don't ever let anyone I'm around just use the ball as the primary anchor point. The ball basically holds the chain/strap in place, and the main yanking force gets transferred to the ball mount, then the hitch

He severely over pulled to get him out. Once moving with both vehicles participation, a little abive idle would have been sufficient.

I pulled a big motorhome out of the campgrounds at Talladega with my jacked up F250 back when. It was one of those with the totally flat windshield in the front. It looked like that Tundra when I got him out.
Only difference is when I started I tried to snatch the mf in half because a bunch of us told his dumb arse not to park down there with it raining.

To quote my 7 y/o ( a big Ford fan), " That's the funniest picture online."

Its a 2 5/16' ball baw. Aint no one on here got no balls bigger than that no matter how chrome they are. But to your point it aint gonna break

No such thing as a 2 5/8 ball

The puller is a idiot

What the freak! I guess the driver of the Tundra is paying for both vehicles to get washed, and washed and washed again...
