    I was in the Boy Scouts when I was a kid. Camping stoves attach to little portable propane tanks - I had a ‘large’ one that was about 1 liter total volume.

    On a campout, I managed to break my water bottle, and about 15 mins after that I ran out of propane.

    Used the pliers in my multitool to pop the valve off the opening (still had an outer lid that screwed on when not in use - made a surprisingly good seal).

    Cleaned it out really thoroughly, and that was my new water bottle for a good year or so.

    The looks of horror were pretty great.
