Have you ever gone down in the deep end of a swimming pool? Usually is about 12-15 ft deep. Notice how hard it feels the deeper you get? Well, that's same as if you go to bottom of ocean. Deepest part of ocean is Mariana Trench, about 7 MILES deep. so if you feel lots of pressure upon you when you're only 12-15 ft deep in a swimming pool, imagine how your body would be if you were under 7 miles of ocean water. Several thousands of pressure per square INCH. Even atomic subs can only go about 1,000 feet deep before they explode from the pressure.

And yet, there are creatures, animals living at the bottom of the trench. they have adapted to that deep pressure as if it's no problem whatsoever. but if we caught one and tried to bring it up to surface, it would die from LACK of pressure before it went very far upward.
