Default Re: Jump Starting?

I've seen a battery explosion but not from charging. When I was at University I worked at a battery manufacturing plant -My job was to fill up the dry batteries with Sulphuric Acid.
One Christmas the manufacturing line all wanted to return to their Pacific Island home for an extended Christmas holiday. Management declined so for a few days the line packed their uneaten lunch inside the battery cases in protest . Sulphuric Acid + Sugar equals explosion sometimes incendiary -It was not good !!
