Ok. I am sorry for your loss but let me just say that this is ****** awesome LOL How often do you see this LMAO! The tree thing just tops it off. That sucks.
Anyways, did the whole dang axle tube come out or did it snap in half? Only way I could see this happening is if the C-bracket that holds the axle in broke.....any more info?

C-clip eliminators actually hold the axle out in the housing end. So if the axle breaks anywhere inside the housing, it will not allow it to come apart like this.
