Default Boosting gone wrong

I was going to boost my car today with my friends help and I wasn't paying attention and he reversed the connection, black with red, red with black on his car. and I wired mine properly and as soon as i touched the negative terminal, sparks when flying and I think it blew something cause nothing turns on, no lights on the dash or anything. any help guys?

Wait, what kind of boosting are we talking about? I thought you meant turboing. Or stealing. Or jumping?

In any case, I would check the main 80amp fuse as suggested earlier.

I Would def check the main fuse especially if nothing is working. Besides there not that expensive to replace.
