My (School) Cello Exploded

First off, my cello was in the wrong place on the rack, so someone touched it. Plus it was horribly out of tune.
So I start tuning it with the pegs (correctly, mind you, I loosened the fine tuners, so that wasn't the issue) and there's a loud pop. The entire room goes silent. My bridge fell off and the sound post fell! Luckily the teacher wasn't mad about it and was just like "oh, I'll have to send that in. The first chair isn't here today, so just use his."
I'm pretty sure that was his personal cello on the cello rack, so I was just internally screaming "oh my god please don't break aaahhhhh" the entire time. It was a nice cello though.
