Default Broken manifold ?

hi, everyone.
My clk 200 started sounding like a tractor suddenly whilst i was driving along.
It sounded like the exhaust was missing.
When i got it home, I opened the bonnet and could feel the gasses blowing near the down pipe joint.
However on closer inspection with a small mirror and a torch, it looks the manifold has broken, just above the joint.
Could this be so ? has this happened to anyone else.
I can't imagine what would cause this sudden failure.
Any idea's anyone?
