It will 100% not withstand that pressure, I bet you could get to maybe 5

I’ll take that as it’s already at 10 and holding just fine.

My money is on the bottom blowing out. Growing up i used to put things like dry ice in plastic bottles and when they would go, bottles like those usually blew out the bottom. Almost in like a star shaped banana peel pattern. Usually launched the bottle too, so beware of that. If it goes, it may move several feet. I would recommend strapping it down.
