I've done this a bunch of times to make burn barrels. What I do is use=
 an angle grinder and grind the top "crimp" until you can see you've=20=

split it all the way around and then give it a couple good whacks with=
 a=20
hammer. You _probably_=20
won't ignite hydraulic fluid doing that, but keep something handy to c=
over the bung in case it does start burning in there.
