What happens when a hot soda can is placed in cold water in the hot soda can in cold water experiment?

When a hot soda can is placed in cold water in the hot soda can in cold water experiment, the can undergoes a rapid cooling process. This causes the air inside the can to contract, creating a lower pressure inside the can compared to the outside. As a result, the higher pressure outside the can pushes the can inward, causing it to crush or implode.
