For every ten meters deeper you dive, the pressure of the surrounding water increases by an amount that's equal to the total ambient pressure that you feel when you're at the surface (101 kPa). So if you dive down to 10 m, the total pressure your body feels is now 202 kPa.
The pressure increases about one atmosphere for every 10 meters of water depth. At a depth of 5,000 meters the pressure will be approximately 500 atmospheres or 500 times greater than the pressure at sea level.
