Parking brake wtf

This was awhile ago, I went to pull the brake, and it came all the way up, with no pressure on it, and felt like I broke it. I put it back down, pulled it back up, and it held as it normally does.
Wtf?
It hasnt had a problem since.
Just wondering what the hell happened there

RE: Parking brake wtf

your parking break can be adjusted from under the car, sometimes it will do that if you pull it too hard and fast

When I set the parking brake, and then take my foot off the brake, the car still rolls back a little and then stops. Is this normal?

I am sure it is fine. What you are probably feeling is the weight being held with the front brakes being transferred to the rear brakes.
