Default Muffler Blew Up While Accelerating Onto Highway

Is there any reason why my muffler blew out while accelerating onto the highway.
It was very loud, and split the muffler in half. At first I thought I had blown my engine.

Any ideas why this may have happened

It was probably rusty..and then you problem redlined it merging and all that power(seriously) just blew the rust apart.

Do you have a swap? Because when as soon as I put my swap in my muffler destroyed itself haha. I'm guessin the higher revs and air moving faster put it to death.
