Atmospheric pressure is directly caused by the density of air around you. As the altitude increases, less air is present due to a lack of living things around you, the the atmspheric pressure will decrease.

pressure is simply the weight of the material above pressing down on you due to gravity. There is less material above the higher you go. it is that simple.
