Do you have a copy of Machinery's Handbook?

Do the math and you'll understand.https://twitter.com/PoseidonAwoke/status/1109805247311036416 …

The maths for preventing implosion is somewhat different that explosion due to different modes of failure. That said, a submarine 11m down is under higher loads than vacuum can impose.
