Why doesn't air pressure cursh objects?
Air pressure WILL crush objects. A standard experiment is to fill a 1 gallon can with water, and then closely fit a small diameter hose to the outlet. Invert the can, and if your hose was indeed sufficiently small, the water will drain out, and the can will collapse due to the air pressure from outside overcoming the strength of the can walls. Air pressure will not crush solid objects in general for they are already as dense as they can become.
