We were lucky restoring from backup worked, it had never been tested before. We were really lucky the CEO and the other coworkers took it so well.

And we were extremely lucky that the CEO was more interested in preventing such an outage in the future than in playing the blame game. I have a hunch this kind of situation can get really ugly once people start loosing their cool.
