Hello !

I plugged in my 2016 MBP to charge a couple of hours ago, I hadn't used it in like 4-5 days.
I was sitting at my desk computer and was hearing some weird noise, I thought it was just very windy outside but it felt weird.
I stood up and saw my MBP had its fan turned on at full speed and it was extremely hot.
I opened the lid and it was just sitting there on the login page...
I just logged in and rebooted the computer and it seems fine now.

Hopefully it is a one off, but if somebody has any idea on what the heck happened I am very curious.
I don't think any damage could come from this, but it really felt like a toaster and with the lid closed that can't be a great thing for the screen and components....

Thanks !
