Default 2007 SE V6: Starter Makes One Clicks and Sparks

My Honda Accord 2007 SE V6 is not starting. Turning the ignition only makes one loud click in the starter, there are also significant sparks from the starter at that time, and then nothing. I have stopped trying to start fearing that it may be a fire hazard. Battery has been tested to be good. All posts are snug and corrosion free as well. I am ordering a new starter just in case. Could kind and very helpful friends of this group please see the videos of click + sparks and offer any advice, suggestion, or ideas? Thanks very much!

If the starter is clicking then sparking, then the problem has to be in the starter and likely needs replaced or rebuilt.
