The Organisms are full of water on their insides and as water is incompressible the pressure on the inside of their bodies is the same as the seawater pressure on the outside, they can not feel the great pressure, it makes no difference to them. It is only when you send a submarine down deep that that the pressure matters as the centre of the submarine is filled with AIR which can be compressed.
