There's a couple of good lessons there.
1. Why is the belayer standing to the left when the crack goes right-to-left? Thus putting more outward force on the lower piece that blew, and also managing to 'trip' up the falling climber on the rope.
2. If you're going to fall, best put that fat padded haul bag below you and aim for it instead, rather than land in a puddle.
