Anything that hit the deck or a substantial area on the railing from 40-50 ft. would prolly be extensively damaged. At least enough to breech the closures.

I've seen a container dropped from a container crane at Ga. Ports Authority to emphasize safety hazards years ago while working w/ a local union out of Savannah.

HOCKATAYOW. (hock-a-tie-yow) Like a beer can.

AIRTIGHT? I recall a news article from last summer about a passle of immigrants dying in one of these. I can't find it now for the life of me. (too damn lazy, to be frank). Could have been from heat exhaustion, tho....
