Default Help! Bent 2 intake valves and chipped a rocker

I am havign a mechanic friend of mine change my head gasket and he had it running but the valves were noisy. So I was like lets just adjust the valves. He adjusted them all and it ran good for about 15 minutes straight. We turned it off and the next day when he went to start it it cranked klike once and made a crazy noise now I have 2 bent intake valves and a chipped rocker. What the heck could have happened??? Help!!
