Sounds like this was no standard drill... If someone took an impact hammer to a rack with spinning drive I'd imagine there would be few survivors

Many standard drills these days have a hammer drill mode that gives some rotohammer-like action when you push in while drilling. It's easy to leave this mode on if you're only ever driving screws, as you're unlikely to push hard enough to engage the mechanism. If you're an idiot.
