I'm gonna guess at the answer

Because the call still being on gives the shape strength. Instead of harmlessly crushing into the ground, it holds the shape long enough that it will hold YOUR entire weight on one foot in a way you can't balance on before you fall.

By the time the liquid or air is able to get out of the bottle, because the cap is on, the damage will have been done.

In the middle of people frolicking dancing jumping pumping thumping moshing surfing the bottle with a call on might as well become a looney tunes or Mario kart ananas peel
