Wow, that’s one in a million. Good thing you found it. Had something similar happen to a bicycle I was restoring. While polishing up a wheel, I popped off the wheel reflector. The retaining clip shot across the garage. Looked for a minute but didn’t see it and went back to polishing.
A week after I finished the bike, I got a flat tire. Taking the tire and tube off, I saw that the clip had landed inside the tire that was hanging from the garage wall. I didn’t see it, so it was between the tire and tube and quickly wore a hole through the tube.

You know what? I actually would like a pickle.
