I haven't ever seen this happen. Water pump story

My friend was driving back from a car show. Water Pump gave out on him. This is what he found. Mind you this is a China manufactured chrome pump he purchased new a long time ago.
The casting failed and the whole thing let loose. Good news it the total cost, minus the towing bill, was a replacement water pump and the antifreeze.
Life happens at the intersection of hard work, talent and luck.
This was the luck part.

He was in fifth gear cruising about 1500rpm when it let loose.
Cheers
