Wow Randy ! Sure glad you were not in there, so was it just a 2nd floor, wood framed, just failed or you think what was going in was heavier than you thought it was, more moisture etc.? That would really play with my head, loading up something like that and having no idea it could give way.
Well at least its inside, not the entire barn, we went through that on a 80x150 barn in '09, with that same corrugated tin, roof collapse of 2/3 of the barn.

Hopefully you can get it cleaned up without too much hassle, darned glad to hear no one or your livestock was injured.
