eli5: when a submarine exceeds its crush depth, and it’s crew is killed, what actually happens to them? Do they die instantly or are they squished flat? What happens ?

They likely hear a sound for a split second. Then end of existence.
You lose consciousness with a punch. Imagine being punched by several tons of steel and water traveling at some hundreds mph.
A gardening hose shoots water with 1-2 bar of pressure, that’s equal to 20m depth. Just scale it to the sub depth. The force is unimaginable, but you can picture it as being more than being hit by a full speed train.
