The ITS, International Trundling Society forbids the use of hydraulic jacks. On a side note, trundling is being considered as a alternate in the next Olympics to sport climbing. Or in spite of?

OP video... weak
The biggest trundle I ever witnessed was in Potrero Chico this last Jan. A guy putting up the third pitch of a FA pushed a refrigerator-sized block off and not only could you see and hear it from 1/4 mile away... we watched it break into two giant frisbees of doom that rolled down hill for like a mile - crashing right over the climbers trail and nearly landing in the road at the bottom of the canyon. THAT was a trundle.
Trying to find my photo now.

I resubmit my trundle from last summer as a decent contender. Cheeseball soundtrack and all. 15 feet tall, 6 feet wide at the waist, and 6 inches to a foot thick...

One should not trundle.
All the living entities that get hit will hurt and cry.
America is so violent .......

no need to trundle, just hang out on the apron for a while,
stay in a camp curry mafia tent cabin, they can get you right next to the action,
plus, you can see chicks undress at night,
or, if your not lucky, an alfred hitchock profile will appear on the tent wall next to yours,

My friends trundled a boulder directly through a house. Alas I was not there on that fateful day for better or for worse. Luckily, the homeowner was not there either. They were on vacation. If they had been there, the boulder would have interrupted their regular Sunday afternoon TV couch lounging, having smashed through the entire living room. The rock was about the size of a VW bug, knocked through two walls and moved the house off it's foundation.

Trundling for the sake of trundling is lame.
(I don't care if the Sierra Clubbers used to do it for fun.)
Trundling for the purposes of route development is close to lame.
Trundling something that has recently become a hazard in an already developed, well-used area is probably a good idea (if it's done carefully).
