When an empty water bottle is placed into cold water the cold water crushes the empty bottle because temperature wise the hotter the temperature, the farther the particles in an object will move, the colder the temperature the closer the particles in an object will move, just like humans, if it was 100 degrees out you just want to spread the heat out, but if it were to be 10 below you would want to keep as much heat in your body as possible

Why would a tightly closed empty water bottle crush itself?
This answer presumes that "empty" means the bottle has no water in it, but does have air in it.In this case the bottle would collapse (or partly collapse) if the temperature inside the bottle dropped to a lower temperature causing the air inside to shrink, or if the bottle was taken to a place of higher air pressure (such as taking the bottle from a mountain peak to the base of the mountain.The bottle would also collapse at some point of evacuation if "empty" means the bottle was evacuated of water and air. The point of collapse, in this case, would depend on the physical construction of the bottle - ie, whether it was made of steel, plastic or glass
