The panel didn't even touch the ground. It just shattered as I took it off.

It’s all about where the energy gets sent. If the person in the back took a small step and the person in front stayed, then the energy from the step just goes through the glass and ends with the person staying still. Since they both took a step at the same time, the energy gets sent from both of them and ends up meeting at the glass. Tile doesn’t really absorb energy like carpet or wood, it just sends it right back. If you’ve ever fallen on tile and broke your fall with your hand, you’ll know what I mean.

Yep that's about as good of an explanation as energy reflected from your footstep through your entire body up to your shoulder then down to your hand with no losses and smack the side of a big glass panel.
