Scoring is not an issue in pool, therefore there is no "highest" break. In that particular form of billiards, the break is the action of taking the first shot and splitting up the racked bals.

You may be confused with snooker: in this, the highest break possible is 147 points (all reds with blacks, then all colours).

Can a glass jar break if dropped from height in a swimming pool?

It depends on how high you dropped the glass jar into the swimming pool. If you drop the glass jar from a few feet above the swimming pool, it will not break. If you drop it from several stories above the swimming pool, the immense pressure on the glass jar that the water is exerting will cause the jar to break.
