Was shaving just now and one of my mirror wall light bulbs blew up. Luckily it's encased in the light fixture with an opening at the top so it was contained a bit, but some glass blew up through the top and rained on me. The glass was very hot, so I'm guess it wasn't LED.

Were you using an electric shaver? Sometimes the right frequency can create resonance and break glass. It happened to me once when using an ultrasonic cleaner - quite spectacular!
