Default Jump Starting Situation Nearly Cost Me Plenty!

The Battery went dead.
I put the Charger on it for a few hours and tried it again.
Nothing.
Dead.

I left the key on by mistake.
AAA showed-up and connected the Cables of a Jump-Pack.
The KEY was ON.

When I started the Engine. The Heater Gauge Needle was all the way around to leaning right-on the Needle Pivot of the Gas Gauge.

It freaked me out.
At first I thought the car was overheating like a Nuke gone critical mass.
Once I came to my senses; I ruled-out overheating. No warning light!

The juice hitting the system from trying a few timed before getting a good connection caused the Heater Gauge Needle to gain enough momentum to cleat the top and fall to the left.

Disconnecting the Battery for 20-Minutes caused the Dash Gauges to return to Home Position.

60 Inches of snow.
By the way, ....
This amused me.
A complete flip is, ... a "Three-sixty!"
This knucklehead watched his bike do a "Forty-six-eighty!"

Yep. 46-80. (360 X 13).
He lost his MoJo by passing a truck over double-solids.
