Do not trust carbon handlebars. On this impact to a tree, with the rider already fallen off the bike, you wouldn't face this problem, if you had aluminum. aluminum flexes. Carbon flexes catastrophically...

Nah, I'm not bothered. Any bar will fail catastrophically if you try hard enough.

Just maybe it was torqued more than 6 nm. That scores the bars to make them snap clean. Just like this pic.
