TH350 torque converter separated?

Put a used but good TH350 in one of my trucks. Took it up the road, felt good, no slipping, shifted nice. Ran it through the gears manually, felt good. Downshifted it to second and backlashed it, no problem. Downshifted it to first, backlashed it(maybe a little high on the RPMs for first, but not much) heard a pop, and then had none of the gears forward or reverse. No fluid leaks, fairly loud whining sound. (in addition to the one coming from ME) Did I cause the TC to separate internally from the combination of high RPMs and the shock of the backlash? Let me know if any of you have done this or heard of it before. Thanks, Mike
