Passenger floorboard popping

I recently was checking out 350 in south forida. When I got into the passenger seat the floor popped as I moved my feet around. sounded like a tin can pop... I'd push it down and it would "pop" back up. Anyone experience this? Sounds like an awful thin floorboard...

That sounds odd and scary. Hopefully M-B isn't decontenting the floorboard area now, lol.

It sounded like, when I was a kid, my grandfathers oil can that you popped to squirt out lub oil... the salesman just blew me off when I showed it to him...
