Default Bleeding coolant system with rad cap off, blowing out radiator

I tried bleeding the cooling system, with the engine warm and the cap off. When I loosen bleed valve it started sucking air and spraying coolant out radiator cap. I also noticed after I turn off car and start again the hoses collapse????

Cant see water pump leaking, clogged system maybe? Where could vacuum pressure come from? Intake manifold gasket?
