Car - Toyota Celica 1997 ST. 7AFE.
I was driving at about 60 - 70 mph. I accidentaly shifted in to reverse while driving like 3 times while trying to change to 5th gear. Each shift lasted like 3 to 4 seconds in reverse at those speeds.  I know I messed up. Did I damage the transmission?

5th gear is in the opposite direction... I'm floored that you not only though that reverse was 5th, but you attempted to jam it in a few times.
