Maybe not for the plot (since it's never referenced or brought up ever again in the film) but I think it does work thematically:

This would be the one real miraculous event in Brian's life. If anything, you would expect that a man who fell from a tower, got picked up by a flaming ball, and returned safely to the ground would be hailed as a holy person by all witnesses.

Instead, nobody gives a fuck and in the next couple of scenes Brian becomes a holy figure through entirely unrelated and mundane means.

Yeah, my main problem is with the whole "never mentioned again" thing. As it is, you could as well just leave it out.
