Disaster could be one bump in the road that throws the debris into the rotating mass, you can calculate the odds of a poor outcome and go from there.

Would it be quite dangerous to forget about it? Im assuming if its caught near the flywheel then it would most likely kill the clutch. Dont have many options here, I realize that I will most likely kill the clutch, just dont want shrapnel in my arse.
