I'm 260lbs.. i regularly jump on the tailgate with no problem, and i don't see a huge difference in construction methods from other trucks.

I've had three guys and a couch entirely supported by the tailgate (~ 700lbs) and mine's still in one piece...

With how the tailgate is folded, it makes sense that it was pushed into something and bent under the load.
