How Do Deep Sea Fish Survive the Extreme Pressure?

The video explains how atmospheric pressure increases underwater, affecting humans and marine life differently. While humans face severe risks at great depths, marine creatures have adapted to survive intense pressure. Fish and cetaceans have unique physiological adaptations, such as compressible lungs and special proteins, to withstand these conditions. However, there are limits to how deep they can go. Studying these creatures is challenging due to their need for high pressure environments.
