Thinking about this…

It would be pretty easy for me to simulate that event.

Buy some carbon fibre pipe. Make some metal end caps. One with an annular burst disk. Glue them on.

Put it in one of my 15k pressure test vessels and pressure it up until the burst disk ruptures or the bond breaks.

I could even put some bacon in there to see it the fat makes it explode… it won’t.
