^@Wikia Contributer above me ^ No that was just a boulder trap. Those are quite common. Traps were added in 1.1 update, featuring 3 new naturally-generated traps, namely the Dart Trap(common), Boulder Trap(semi-rare) and Explosives Trap(Rare).

By the way, in Terraria, dropped items do not disappear. they stay there until the server is shut down or the game is quit. I don't think items can be blown up either.
