I saw videos about Hydraulic presses pressing 100s of tons,how is that possible, not like how that’s achieved but how doesn’t everything under the press is destroyed?

Hydraulic presses apply that super-high force in a very small area and in a very controlled space/fashion. The die can only move so far due to the internal structure of the pistons, so it can’t go down farther than surface of the press. The surface of the press is generally made of very sturdy, durable material that is bolted to the floor (and to the pistons), so that it won’t move or be damaged when the object/workpiece is being pressed.
