I think that you might have missed this call, if that was your only reason for passing (I wasn't there, and so won't presume to judge).
The rule specifies necessary conditions for calling HCT. If the play meets those conditions, then it's a HCT, whatever else happened. If the runner had stopped his fall with his hand and landed on his side instead of his back, for instance, I'm still calling HCT.
