Sorry to hear Crying or Very sad
Not trying to dwell on what happened, but maybe you could help others by your misfortune.

Maybe you could describe the bit on the run where he got under, material, size, flaw, what would have stopped this.
It may sound silly but i think people could learn something from this (when run making). It also puts into prospective how devious these spawns of satan are.
