Exclamation How much damage did i do?!?!?!?

OK so here is the story:

a few days ago i was cruising around 60mph with my buddy and i popped it into neutral to ride with no hands for a second as i adjusted my helmet strap i pulled in the clutch and attempted to shift up to second still around 50-55...well the gears did not sound happy to perform that action it was a godawful noise of metal to metal contact in the gearbox...i still shutter thinking about it

Anyway, i have been practicing cluch ups and i have probably done about 30 or so all but 2 were successful(give or take) then yesterday i did one as i always do WOT in first till i hit the power band flick the clutch and NOTHING happened i looked down and my gearbox had shifted itself into neutral are these 2 phenomenon related and any gueses at how much damage i did with the first one?
