What happens to burning matches when placed in a jar of hydrogen?

If you can introduce the burning match into the jar of hydrogen without contact with air, it will go out, but in practice this is impossible.

If you are really quick it will make a dull bang, because the hydrogen will only burn as it meets the air. If you are a little slower, the bang will be louder and squeaky, because the hydrogen will have mixed with air and will burn faster.
