It's a Kinja'd marathon!

If somebody could make the Kinja logo smashing the tanker, that would be the best.

Hope that guy jumping over the F1 car got seriously hurt. Stupidity of that magnitude deserves severe punishment.

My Automotive technology textbook explains this phenomenon quite well, actually.

Yep, and it doesn't take much. Tanks like this are made to prevent busting outwards - relatively little negative pressure will do this.

Found the video. Apparently about 760 bar (or 11 psi) of negative pressure.

Almost, but just the K shooting down and crushing the tank.

Unless it's an ASME-rated vessel it can be as little as a couple of PSI or a few inches of vacuum...then *thoomp*

760 bar is approximately 11,000 psi. Methinks you meant millibar :)

Oops, you're right. it is probably millibar... In the video (it's German), you can hear him a man say "760". In the comments, someone said "bar" and I went with that. I didn't notice all the zeroes in 11 000 - I only saw "11".
