To be "spike trapped" is to be caught in a situation that is painful, painfully avoidable, and painful to watch. If you witness someone get spike trapped, you are likely to facepalm in reaction.
Players of Dungeons and Dragons frequently must "check for traps" to avoid getting spike trapped, but you can be spike trapped by situations outside of gaming as well.
When getting spike trapped is painfully avoidable, you can see the situation coming, and yet you still somehow do nothing to stop it. This also makes the event painful to watch. Sometimes it catches you off with only a moment to react, which can make getting spike trapped particularly painful.
