  As above, any of you have destroyed, cracked or damaged the Nalgene bottle before?
  
  I just dropped mine from a flight of steps full of water... nothing happened.
  
  I read Nalgene website last time, they claimed it only showed small cracks after being shot by a solid slug shotgun.
  
  In NS, i ignited a thunderflash in it, nothing happen also.
  
  Should try driving a 5-tonner over, but i am not that rich la. haha

  SWAT teams use the same material for thier bulletproof goggles, if something happens to your nalgene bottles, its time SWAT teams evaluate their equipment.

  Just go to any camping shop like Sports Connection.
  
  Ask for Nalgene bottles - they're sure to have them.
  
  Be prepared to pay, though - a 400ml bottle can cost something like $14.

  SIGG bottles? They're quite good, actually.
  
  My unit's spec mess once bought 1-liter SIGG bottles for all the specs in my unit. I once dropped my bottle several stories. It made a hell lot of noise on impact, but it was just slightly dented.
  
  I lost it last year. Accidentally left it in the exam hall.

  I doubt anything will happen. I'm thinking of getting one now actually cause it've been quite long since I last bring out drinking water. Since I need to take care of my health now, I'll probably get one.

  My Nalgene fell from the 3rd floor of PLaza Singapura out of my bag onto ground floor, then Uncle sweeper pick it up, and return to me. Heng never hurt anyone.
  
  Bottle was unscathed
