To be disconcerted at DPs response

Last night, myself, DP and DPs brother were watching the Olympic diving and gymnasts.
I was commenting on the physique/attractiveness of the athletes in a light hearted way. DP is a sportsman who has a pretty impressive body and he knows I find him gorgeous, this is nothing that would ever have annoyed him before.
He basically snapped and yelled at me to stop talking. I was mortified in front of his brother and really taken aback. He apologised after and I apologised also as I hadn't meant offend him. He reassured me I hadn't and was hugging me and telling me he loved me.
He's been going through a tough time recently and I've been very supportive but I know sometimes he still struggles. That being said I can't shake how I feel about his response and it's been bugging me all night, it wasn't what he said but how he said it, there was so much anger and venom that it really threw me. Don't really know how to put this into words or get past it as what I was saying was clearly wrong? I just feel really strange about the whole thing. Any advice?

Had drink been took?

I don't think you were being as funny and lighthearted as you thought you were at the time. I wouldn't have liked it either if I was trying to watch a sporting event properly and a bloke was wittering on about the size of the women athlete's breasts. Sorry.
