Exploding soda cans with electromagnets in SLOW MOTION ft Joe Hanson

Shouldn't it just slide out of the coil in one direction? The magnetic field produced by the current in the can should be in opposition to the magnetic field produced by the current in the coil. As I know this would repel the can IN ONE DIRECTION not split and repel in two directions. I saw the correction at 3:00 but still it is not clear for me why does the can split in two. I even know a poem in my lang:

Eu, curentul cel indus,
Totdeauna m-am opus
Cauzei care m-a produs.

This is puzzling.
