A very minor mystery

Back in the seventies a farmer had a problem with his milker. While running the milker one Sunday morning some thing went through the line and broke every glass corner in the run. There was nothing found in the final milk collection bin. Nothing found on the floor where the glass corners broke. Under normal conditions I would expect any corner that was broke would let the offending item out of the run.
It's been a puzzle for a lot of years. I do not have an answer.
What kind of theory's can you come up with

Aliens. Definitely aliens.

Perhaps the glass corners finally gave the underwear gnomes what they needed to complete Phase 2:

Back-suction implosion. Moo-ving along now...

frequency would be my best guess.

I knew someone once who conveyed that the window in their room had 3 layers of glass. They woke up one morning to find the middle pain had a dime sized hole in it, the other windows were left untouched.

With three stomachs ... them gasses are gonna build.

Get the right conditions .. that methane build up, is in a glass of its own !!

Wrong conditions ... Aliens took a bite !

I was going to say a build up of pressure too and maybe that the apparatus was not calibrated correctly leading to a high build up of pressure...

You beat me to it... "Sob"

You bored too mate? *grin grin*

Reminds me of my army days :

We used to fart into the toothbrush glasses (after a good night out on the Guinness and a curry) and then turn them upside down and leave them on the sinks in the communal bathroom.

It was great fun watching our mates go a lighter shade of green when they were washing their mouths out after brushing their teeth...

Buwhahahahahaha...
