With over 50 years of flying I have never hit turbulence like this. I did hit some serious stuff at 45,000 Feet once upon a time but it did not result in an upset or loss of control of the aircraft.
This incident as reported involved clear air turbulence (CAT) which was evidently Severe. At 37,000 and all clear you do not expect such a thing to happen unless the winds aloft are unusually strong and even then it is rare.
