Compression Question

How can a car have 0 compression in a cylinder, but have enough pressure to blow off a spark plug wire without the plug inside?

Supposidly I have 0 compression, but you can't put your hand over the hole without it blowing it away.

That''s what I'm guessing, because in order for that to happen there has to be compression right?
