I believe the answer is:

That, because pressure and temperature have a direct relationship and pressure and volume have an indirect relationship, crushing (decreasing the volume) and adding heat (increasing the temperature) will cause the aerosol can to exceed its pressure limitation and may explode. 

I hope this is what you are asking for!

Heating the can increases the kinetic energy of the gas molecules.

Increasing the kinetic energy of the gas molecules increases the pressure of the gas on the can.

Crushing the can reduces its volume.

As volume decreases, the pressure inside the can increases because the gas molecules collide with the can’s walls more often.

If the pressure gets too high, the can may explode.

Explain the significance of this quote, “Heisenberg may have slept here.”
ch4aika [34]

Umm...Well...

Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle says that we can never know both the position and rate of change of a particle at any time. We can only know one or the other. This leads to rather silly jokes that deal with uncertainty, probability, and superposition. So, saying that "Heisenberg may have slept here" is essentially saying that it is uncertain if Heisenberg slept there or not, making for a rather silly, but slightly unfunny physics joke.
