Hi :) Errr, i don't think people were suggesting the o.p. had done anything wrong or not followed instructions. It's more likely that almost all of us are remembering having been in a similar situation. As we become wiser we take more precautions against it but i bet most of us can remember some horrendous incident where the loss has seemed overwhelming at the time.
One time a 'prank' made my heart race so much i thought it would explode out of my chest and the room started spinning and i sat/stumbled heavily. When i found it had just been a prank i didn't have enough left in me to be angry.
