We used to do this with empty hairspray cans with a volume of 16 oz. I can only imagine what an 11 gallon container would do, but it would be nasty.

One of my wife's asthma inhalers once inadvertently wound up in the fireplace. It took off like a mortar. I thank God no one was in front of the fireplace when it punched a hole through the screen and smacked the opposite wall.

Hairspray contains flammable propellant, beer kegs simply rupture violently from steam.
