I don't see a rush of air past the container causing it to fail; it may be that there is damage to the other side as well, and then the damage may well have been caused by an outrush of air taking the path through the container.
You're forgetting that the air inside the container is at the same pressure as the cargo hold, so when the cargo hold decompresses the container also has to decompress rapidly or it will burst.
My understanding is those containers are not designed to hold pressure.
