I can testify my fellow hunters it CAN happen. When it happened (second time) to me I am silently sitting in attack position about 1500 meters from an escort when all of a sudden if I don't go into flank zuruck I may be hit by my own eel. Scary moment. Made for one hell of an escort evasion scenario as well. First time I was attacking a lone Egyptian freighter, and immediately blew ballast and full speed back. Would rather take a chance with the armed freighter than be hit by my own eel. Luckily the first torp nailed the freighter, and I got out of the way in time. A big shout out to Vecko for all the love put into TWoS
