A system. The system includes a liquid container and an energy absorbing system positioned. The liquid container includes a wall which defines an interior volume of the liquid container. The energy absorbing system is within an interior volume of the liquid container. The energy absorbing system is configured such that if an object passes through the wall of the liquid container and impacts the energy absorbing system, an amount of energy absorbed by the energy absorbing system is at least 18% greater than an amount of energy absorbed by the wall of the liquid container. The energy absorbing system includes one or more energy absorbing members, wherein at least one of the one or more energy absorbing members comprises a metal and has a Brinell hardness of at least 150.
