Why does a lighted match stick put out when brought near a jar containing hydrogen?

A match won't light in hydrogen. It needs some oxygen.
If you light a match in a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen, you'll ignite the hydrogen ...
which also wants very much to burn in oxygen. The hydrogen will combine (burn) with
the oxygen instantly, brightly, and possibly loudly. The product that remains after the
hydrogen finishes burning is H2O .
