That's what I think, too. No expert in physics here but if a plane crashes into the ocean and its wreckage is to be found that deep, would not the bodies get drastically crashed or sandwiched due to sudden exposure to high-pressure? I'm referring to the speed of falling and the natural force of resistance coming from the meeting of bodies of plane and water (which, btw, would make a cement-floor effect when you fall from air-traffic height)..
