I'm still not sure on the complaining of 'could have died'. Seriously? A rack breaks, which they do, and it drops down to the tire, you go over the handlebars. Much like cyclists have been doing for years. It's kinda like a front fender collapsing from a stick or even a dirty Cinzano team member jamming a silca into your spokes.
Ride a bike and you will go down. Sometimes slowly and softly but sometimes its bloody and spectacular. Sorry someone fell over but this was a customer installed rack in which the customer bent a piece of steel to make it fit. This is the Riv list in which people extoll on the virtues of steels' failure mode. How long has this tang been cracked and weakened and ignored? Buy a new tang, or better yet, go to the hardware store and make a new one. Then ride the bike.
