Pressure is NOT going to crush it like a tin can. That is bad science. You also DO NOT open doors or windows in a tornado and or hurricane. You will compromise the entire structure.

Geeeze, I always thought you DID open windows a crack--not so, though, eh?
You know that for a fact? (I need for future reference in FL)

It's also common sense. A can is a lot harder to crush when it is intact.
