I was thinking about a standard 12oz aluminum beverage can. Dimensions in inches: Outer diameter = 2.6, Inner diameter=2.53, thickness=0.035, height of can=4.8 I don't think Euler's buckling formula is valid here, because the slenderness ratio of the can is not large enough. I did some experiments, by placing can on bathroom scale and slowly applying force with my foot. Most cans crush when the scale reaches 100 to 120 lbs, but I've had some as high as 180, and as low as 80. Does this sound reasonable?
