Why would the oil pressure go from about 40 up to almost the red lineit on a dodged 4x4 with a 5.2?

Its because your head gasket blew, filling your crankcase with coolant, diluting your oil, making it pump oil much faster. Can also be caused by a faulty plenum pan gasket leaking.This can cause an erratic oil pressure.The gakets break and will cause oil to be consumed through the p.c.v. valve into the intake.This gasket is located and mounted to the intake on the bottom side.

What does the saying dodged a bullet mean?
If you dodged a bullet, you had a very narrow escape. The image is of someone actually managing to get out of the way of a bullet fired at them. If you barely escaped something bad, you'd say "I really dodged the bullet." This is usually a figurative danger rather than a literal one -- mostly you hear the phrase in terms of a bad situation at work or home. An example would be "You really dodged the bullet when you managed to convince the boss that you really were home sick yesterday."

What is the water pressure at the deepest part of the ocen feel like?
The deepest point of the ocean is in the "Marianas Trench" and it's called "Challenger Deep" wich is almost 11000 meters deep, the pressure here is literally 1000 times stronger than the normal pressure at sea level, so it would feel like nothing, because u would be almost instantly crushed :)

I think it can because there is a lot of atmospheric pressure so it can be crushed at one point.It would be crushed very quickly. The pressure on Venus is almost 100 times the pressure on earth. The gravity on Venus is less than the gravity on earth, however.

I dodged the bullet on that one by not using synthetic oil in my car. If I did, I would be sure to change it at least as often as my owner's manual stipulates so I don't void my warranty.
