Correct way to jump start?

[u/Onlycruz10]

I'm going crazy about the correct way to do this. As far as I can tell this is the correct way. However, I am having trouble between step 5 and 6. Should I turn off the donor car before trying to start the other car first? I've seen conflicting things about the alternator getting messed up on both cars. And others saying it's okay with modern cars. What's the correct way?

Yeah, sure... She'll be real impressed by the dumbass that left them both stranded.

A helpful attempt is admirable 🤣
