Yes,
particularly true for those around the neck. Do it right (carotid arteries) and you can kill in under 10 seconds. (see the Godfather movie for the excellent timing shown in the garrote scene at the bar.)
No, it is not possible to kill someone by pushing on the pressure point in the wrist. Pressure points can cause pain or discomfort, but they cannot cause fatal harm.
There is a pressure point on your neck. If you stab your thumb into the pressure point it will stop the blood flow. It will either kill the person instantly or make them pass out. DO NOT use as a self defence move.
Applying pressure to the wrist alone is unlikely to kill someone. However, extreme force or techniques applied to pressure points can potentially cause pain, injury, or loss of consciousness. It is not recommended to use such techniques outside of trained and controlled environments.

To pinch someone's pressure point, find their pressure point. From there, pinch it with your thumb and pointer finger. You can also just apply strong pressure to it.
Boiling point is when the liquids pressure equals the pressure of the atmosphere.
When pressure is applied to water in an autoclave, it raises the boiling point of the water, allowing it to reach higher temperatures without turning into steam. This increased pressure and temperature help to sterilize equipment and kill bacteria more effectively.
The pressure at the stagnation point of a fluid flow is the highest point of pressure in the flow, where the fluid comes to a stop and its kinetic energy is converted to pressure energy.
Air pressure also affects the boiling point of water. The higher the air pressure, the higher the boiling point.
The boiling point of a liquid depends on the pressure applied to it: higher pressure raises the boiling point and lower pressure decreases it. By reporting the boiling point along with the pressure, it allows for accurate comparison and reproducibility of experimental results, as different pressure conditions can affect the boiling point.
The simple answer is pressure.
