There are gases inside the jug that creates pressure. As the water ages in a sealed container the gas may get used up in reactions, this lowers the pressure inside the jug collapsing the walls. Same thing if the water was put in side the jug warm and then cooled. Warm water has more pressure and as it cools the pressure reduces collapsing the jug. You usually only see things things with very thin wall jugs.
