It's not suppose to sizzle, you need a new light switch! It might start a fire!!

When a switch makes a noise when turned on, this would indicate a quite worn switch or a switch that is not connected properly.

The audible noise is made from electricity jumping over a small gap.

This jumping does unfortunately create heat and might in worst case cause a fire.

It might be easy enough as just tighten a few screws in order to correct this.

How can you see path of light through smoke?

You can see the path of light through smoke because the particles in the smoke scatter the light. When light enters the smoke, it hits the particles and scatters in different directions, making the path of the light visible. This effect is commonly seen in settings like laser light shows or sunbeams filtering through smoke-filled rooms.
