Default Broken spark plug, A few questions, Pic inside.

I wasn't sure where the best spot would be to post this. I figured the All Motor forum might have some good insight. If you think it would be better off in another one don't be shy....

The plug was pulled from my bros stock 94 jdm gsr motor.
While changing plugs and wires,when this one was pulled out it was still together but easily came apart when it was turned over.

Just curious what would cause this..heres the pic...

That's a Champion plug. They seem to be more brittle than other spark plugs.

They make good power however.....

Thanx a lot. We just wanted to make sure nothing was wrong, the plug still looked fairly good still so it was mostly curiousity.
