Hi. I'm new here.
Yes, what you were smelling is hydrogen sulfide gas which has the rotten egg smell. Lead acid batteries produce hydrogen gas when charging--a spark from jumper cables can cause the battery to explode throwing sulfuric acid everywhere.
I had a battery blow up a foot from my face. Fortunately a fellow mechanic hit me with the water hose and I have no scars.
