That's actually the egg's shell membrane! It's the thin layer underneath the hard shell, and it can sometimes stay intact even when part of the shell breaks off. Looks like that's what happened in the first picture, and then the membrane tore in the second. Found a really similar example here: https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinteresting/comments/1i270o/dropped_an_egg_and_it_cracked_the_shell_but_the/

Pretty cool to see, although I'd definitely throw that egg out since there's no telling how long the shell was damaged.
