Feb 25, 2017 at 3:34 comment added Paul I am not an experimentalist ,but the reason may be inductance . A circuit dislikes a change in current so when you turn the switch off ,the circuit dislikes it and still want to maintain the constant current through it.The back emf is so high that even air get ionized.
