It happens. But looks like you smoked him. They don't always leak like a hose on double lung shots.
I remember taking a WT buck with my rifle about 15 years ago, perfect broadside double lung. A big splash of hair and blood where I hit him. He never bled another drop for the next 150-200 yards until he slowed down then started to stagger and fell over. When I gutted him the vitals side of his diaphram was like a chest full of lung jello.
