Basically I have a shower with a big glass pane and I was in bed and heard a massive crash and went to look thinking someone might be breaking in but no the shower glass pane shattered itself and nothing can fall on it or anything. So I’m so confused. Any ideas?

And before anyone jumps to anything paranormal I’m sceptical of that type of stuff.

    They rarely shatter on their own. The damage was probably done earlier but you didn’t see it, and it took a while before it finally spread enough it broke.

      Maybe, I didn’t notice any cracks or chips in the glass and that was about 2 hours earlier. But maybe It was a hairline crack or something

        Glass can and will break for no apparent reason, even tempered glass.

        During manufacturing the glass can take on stress that is not visible but is a ticking time bomb. Temperature differential alone can push that stress past its breaking point.
