He was trying to break the bolt on the top of the shock assembly loose. The whole time the piston was spinning. He forgot to hold the piston in place, which broke the seal and it started leaking oil. It only happened on the first shock (my front right), but it seems that my front left shock is the one that is blown. I just want to replace both to be safe.
