Rukee, I had a similar occurrence when I was 18 (1st GTO) doing a jump start. "Someone" crossed the positive and negative cables ...when they made the connection, the resulting explosion sent the Delco battery top about 30 feet straight up!!!! The battery still worked after that... I have been REAL careful to this day after that little F-up........Glad you aren' t horribly deformed like the guy from Phantom of the Opera.....
