Re: Coleman Fuel can as crash cushion

I also had another Coleman fuel can in that belly pod, along with backpacks, sleeping bags and three plastic 5-gallon buckets full of foodstuffs. The other Coleman fuel can was barely dented, while one of the food buckets was badly deformed, you might say mangled, another was punctured and dented, but still useable  as a food container, but wouldn't hold water, and the third was wholly unscathed. My only real loss was one can of soup that had its lid seal violated by being scrunched too far out of shape.

So there were a few other impromptu crash cushions that came into play as well.
