I presume you mean one that has been opened while inflight and is found to have been crushed upon landing? The cabin pressure of a airliner is lower than most airports. When you land the pressure is greater. Oddly enough, most pilots are aware of the exploding potato chip bag phenomena. Bags of potato chips (etc.) tend to inflate and explode at high altitudes. A thermos of ground purchased coffee is also hazardous, since it is hot enough to boil over at high altitudes.
