If it was making some sort of scratchy noise, that only means the READ/WRITE heads are off. And I can tell you that it's dead. You may gladly trash it away. The only time you can bump an HDD is when the motor that controls the READ/WRITE arms is jammed.

The Hit It Myth distance between the read heads and the disk surface got shorter as time went by, and some modern disks (already discontinued thats lucky) used to let loose a part of the arm where we find the head parking and held it again when activated. Its usual to find pieces of those heads spread inside disks whose user or technician used the tap solution. Those pieces scratch thedisk
