What would happen if the Earth stopped spinning for one minute?

If Earth’s rotation is stopped and all the angular momentum is released as heat, everyone dies.

If the whole Earth stops by magic, with the angular momentum just vanishing and then reappearing, then the result is very minor.

Other than that, everybody would want to know: What the heck just happened? How did Earth magically stop and start again? But everybody is just fine.
