Ridiculously stupid fold

I've had an absolute shocker folding AA to an all in over bet. My thinking behind it was, he's caught the 8 and wants it to look like a bluff. For some reason I never considered an over pair to the board. I was very close to calling but didn't. Is this an insta call for anyone else in my position?

    At least you've answered your own question. It's easy to make stupid mistakes in the heat of the moment, but you already know where you went wrong upon reflection.
