Proper placement of the trailer and loading can be easily done without that motor running for so long at the ramp base, causing a huge washout just below the concrete!

Ditto you both. It is obvious they are not up-to-speed on "safely trailering your boat".

It really seems to me that you're a nice enough guy and that you're sincere in trying to help. I feel that you're probably excited about making that video too - it was pretty well done. I am trying to stay away from my caustic/sarcastic inner self.
In the terms of constructive criticism - 70% of what you did there was unnecessary. 70% of what you did only served to jeopardize your outboard; your head/hands; and the ramp.
Please reconsider your approach. If you make it down this way I will take you fishing and you can hold my beer while I do it "my way". I feel like you will be a convert.
