Hooking up an amp to battery

aight i just want some invoice on what you more experience poeple think. i think some may find this funny. my boy was installing an amp for his friend. he ran the wires on the dodge caravan 2002, he evetually got it in the hood, and when he was going to hook it up tio the battery, is where he encountered problems lol. he started to unscrew the positive on the battery and the car went crazy... all the lights were flikering, the spedomiter was moving, so was all the other gauges.... so he connecteed the positive back again.... and the car would not turn on.... so he tighted it again and it finally worked when applying gas.

correct me if im wrong, he wont belive me but DONT YOU HAVE TO DISCONECT THE NEGATIVE FIRST from the battery???/ when hookin up an amp power cable?? or even hooking up anything??
