LOL. That sucks. Poor girl, she must feel so bad. Lesson learnt: don't let anyone handle ancient mirror.

  I watched one where this dude was holding a piece of instrument (I think) and it was literally, the only one of its kind in the world. He broke it and then swore a lot.

Probably forgot to bring it with her. Why do accidents that happen to other people so often amuse us (i.e.when no physical injury ensues)?
