Pannier slightly bent.

So today I parked the bike, granted it was parked on a slightly downward parking lot.

Due to the wind (Some heavy winds 30mph) it seems the bike tipped over. I wasn't present as I was exploring the area.

I'm not really annoyed about the bike falling over, it's an R1250 GSA so enough crash bars to protect it.

What I am annoyed about is that the left pannier is slightly bent. The lid won't close nicely anymore.

Is this normal when it happens. I would have thought the panniers to be sturdier? Or am I delusional in thinking that?

Thanks in advance for any help/info.
