Not at all. I've seen it done. The only caveat is don't hit it quite
straight, or squeeze a bit before impact. You can easily smash a can
holding in in one hand with out a lot of force and slamming it against
something flat and solid...as long as you do not hit it quite straight.
And don't cut your self with the "pop top".
Keep it straight, undented and apply the force straight and the thing
will support quite a load.
