You okay? Depending on when, that can be a dire thing.
Not a pedal but once snapped a crank arm with basically the same result: planting my clipped in foot on the pavement going at speed. Do. Not. Want. Again.
Agree it must have been frozen to the axle for some reason, as the threading is reversed to prevent inadvertently coming off.
