In a shipwreck at the bottom of the ocean containing air pockets, would you die from jumping in the water due to water pressure?

I’ve attached an image here, to further illustrate the scenario. Imagine that the wreck is at the bottom of the Marianas trench, 10km underwater.

Would jumping into the water kill you from the pressure? Or would it only kill you if you swam to where there is no cover on the right side of the wreckage?

Answer 1

The air bubble would not hold under that pressure so this scenario isn’t possible. The air would compress and ultimately disperse into the water, filling the chamber with water.
