My pistons were not cracked, but the cylinder pressure did push the rings and ring lands hard enough to break off the pistons, but not enough to lift the heads torqued to 150ft lbs, even though they were just cleaned and reassembled, no decking or matching. 6.9 head gaskets are all I use anymore.
And I'd consider this as extreme use. WAY more abuse than probably 98% of us will ever put our engines through.

That was the goal, always trying to find the weak links and find how to improve them.
