Can you survive on Venus because of its atmosphere?

No. The atmosphere of Venus would kill you very quickly. At the surface, temperatures exceed 800 degrees Fahrenheit and pressure is more than 90 times that at sea level on Earth. The atmosphere itself is mostly carbon dioxide. So you would be simultaneously baked and crushed if you were to set foot on Venus.
