The Society of Physics Students ( http://cas.umkc.edu/physics/sps/news.html ) built a can crusher a few years ago. We just took high speed (1000 fps) video of the can being crushed (and vaporized).
The crushing is too fast for the camera. We'll get a faster camera and repeat this.
Some early photos of the can crusher can be seen here ( http://cas.umkc.edu/physics/sps/projects/cancrusher/cancrusher.html )
