Sorry to hear that man. I just lost my biggest aro, at the time, about two and a half months ago, he was around 27" or so. I hate losin one of my favorites, all my aro's are very special to me. He is at the taxidermist right now, I should have him back in a couple of months.
 
If it can fit, it will manage it, think about it, you could aim yourself through a gap that you can fit through, it's no different. Sucks though, looks like you tried to jump proof your tank. As for damaging themselves on a hard surface (tank hood or whatever) has anyone tried something like streching a small hole net over the tank with a gap between that and the hood. Might help absorb the jump without damaging the fish. Just an idea, although admittadly a pain maintanence wise. Something to think about though if you have fish that you know spook or jump a lot.
 
sorry for your loss, like losing a member of the family...
 
the same thing happened to me a month ago. no sign of escape or injury just found him dead on the ground :(
