Crush Depth: What Happens When A Submarine Dives Too Deep? – SlashGear

Submarine technology is built to withstand the pressure of deep sea travel. For context, standard smartwatches often come packed with a water resistance of roughly five atmospheres of pressure, equating to around 50 meters (or 164 feet). At this depth, the pressure exerted on humans, watches, and submarines is five times greater than at the surface. 

Eventually, the pressure becomes unbearable, even for the hull of a vessel designed to traverse the deep. The “crush depth” signifies a depth at which a submarine will hit this critical threshold and be claimed by the deep sea. It should be noted that depth ratings and real world max diving distance aren’t always the same, so a submarine could potentially cross its maximum dive depth and return to the surface. However, testing this limit certainly isn’t safe, and can easily result in catastrophic loss of life.
