Default rod from pedal to master snapped

the other day, i press the clutch pedal to start the car and it fell to the floor, i pulled it up and couldnt press it down again...
my friend force it down, but the pedal stayed down.

i go under the car and the the clutch line popped out of the slave.

i put it back in and proceed to bleed, then notice pedal is either down or up.

go to check..
and rod is broken ???

for the **** of it i got a new slave and will be ordering a tick..

what do you think went?
the slave and then in the process to force the pedal down, the master snapped?

slave has maybe 25k on it, master has 106k

Sounds like the only problem was the line came loose, until your buddy smashed the pedal and broke the rod.

Yes, it sounds like something came loose in the line and then when the pedal was forced to the floor that's when it broke. Either way, one of our Masters will do the trick for you. Here is the link if you need it, might be a good idea to get the remove bleeder too.

They are designed not to hold air, usually it comes down to user malfunction.
