The article says they were going for 4000m, but it was only rated for 1300m.

That would imply a collapsing somewhere between the two.

Also, would the body, being mostly made of water itself, really get crushed instantly? I would certainly expect the pressure to squeeze all the air out of your lungs.

I know nothing about how the body behaves under high pressure.
