It got me to thinking of putting the end of the wire in a jar, which

Think about that above statement. Do you really think that a lighting
strike capable of traveling hundreds or thousands of feet in the air is
going to be detered by a couple millimeters of glass, or a couple inches to
the opening?

Actually, it wasn't lightning around at that time. the sparks were
static burst or something generated from lightning afar off. I was
concerned about the possibility of fire when I threw the connector
into the jar.
