I have a very hard time believing in this.

Are there any big exchange operators (btc24/btc-e/bitstamp/btcde/bitfloor) on here that can confirm that they themselves were not DDoSed?
The reason I'm having a hard time believing this is because btc-e/bitcoin 24/bitfloor were all down for about 3 minutes just before the first crash happened ($250->$220).
After the price dropped to $220 mtgox was starting to come down to 300sec lag, just as it hit 300sec lag all the exchanges went down for 2-3 minutes (bitfloor for a little while longer) again and mtgox changed direction and grew towards 4500sec lag.
