Jerrycan Handles

If you are a camping fan, you will understand how handy jerry cans can be, but we are sure you might be puzzled about why there are three handles on the top. Well, the idea is to ensure the fuel in the can is even distributed while it is being carried around. If you are the only person carrying the can, it is ideal to use the handle in the middle, while if you are carrying two at a time, it is best to use the handles on the opposite side so the two cans can help to balance each other. Suppose you are carrying with a friend the two outer handles would be used. Take note, this was very critical during World War II.
