My co-op run through It Takes Two died at the clock tower because my buddy raged and snapped his controller

So my buddy Dave and I were about 6 hours into It Takes Two on his couch in Tacoma when we hit the clock tower section. If you have played it, you know that part needs both players to nail timing on the gears and levers, and Dave kept missing his jump by like half a second. After the 11th death he just stood up, said "I am done with this stupid game," and threw his controller at the couch cushion, which somehow popped the right stick clean off. We sat there in silence for a minute, then I grabbed my spare pad from my backpack and we tried again. It took us 4 more tries but we finally cleared it, and honestly the win felt better because of how bad we choked earlier. The weird part is he still blames the game and not his own hands. Now I keep two controllers in my bag no matter whose house we play at. Has any co-op game ever made one of your friends rage quit mid run, and did you ever get them back on the couch?
