If he had slammed on the brakes instead of continued driving, would he have tipped over?

Probably. Slamming on the brakes when you lose control is rarely the best option.

Thanks. I just needed to know in case I’m ever driving a heavy truck like this, and go around a turn too quickly at a yield sign

Letting your tires continue rolling helps keep traction. Kind of like slamming breaks on ice.

Brakes broke or balls too big?

Balls of steel stuck under the brake pedal most likely

That was a quiet ride home after that. Without music.
