We have our long awaited shotcrete today. While they were shooting, apparently a rock flew out of hose and hit the pipes and cracked it open which caused the water under pressure to look like a geyser. Has this happened to anyone??? Attached a photo after water stopped spraying.

I don't ever recall seeing that happen here. It's totally understandable and yet so unlucky.

Wow!!. Well Murphy's Law at work. It had an opportunity to hit all that rebar but went in between and hit the pipe. Very unfortunate but fixable.
