I thought those were indestructible? Must have been some horrible witchcraft or wizardry that broke those.

If that happend during improper pushing / pulling technique, a lot of hurt could have happend to the person, if they weren't ready for the snap-off . . .

Glad you're OK, could have ended up a lot worse, I've seen it happen . . .

How is the hand that wielded it?

Fine. A coworker was using it.

I have never seen one break like that before....

My dealer said the same thing.

is that a government model of that wrench?

Nope, just a '67 model.

Damn!

Can you tell us the story on that one?

He pulled, it broke. It wasn't completely unexpected. We had been snapping 1/2" grade 7 all thread before this happened.
