A few minutes ago I picked up my house keys from the ledge in front of my TV set. Before I could take another step, I noticed something very baffling. A wristband that I keep on the same ledge somehow fell to the ground, landing about 4 feet (1.3 meters) to my right and about a foot behind me (I heard it landing on the floor). I keep the wristband on the same ledge (in front of the TV) where I keep my keys. I have failed to come up with any credible-sounding scenario that can naturally explain the event.
The only thing I can think of is that the mere action of picking up the keys somehow caused the wristband to be violently ejected to the right, so that the wristband would land four feet away, to the right. The scenario seems unbelievable, and I failed to notice anything unusual in front of me.
An alternate explanation is a paranormal one, that the incident is a supernatural omen. The wristband was a "Do Not Resuscitate" wristband I wear on walks, to specify that if my heart ever stops, I do not want CPR to be attempted. A spooky event involving such a wristband might be an omen of my death in the not-too-distant future.
Below is the wristband as I saw it on the floor.
