My escalation goes like this: 1) Turn lid 2) Bend knees slightly, take deep breath, and push jar away from body while turning and breathing out, thereby using core muscles for undoing and arms just for gripping, usually effective. 3) Take pliers. Apply to side of lid and pull lid upwards until it goes slrrrrpPOP and the vacuum releases.
