Huh? It's actually pressurized by over an atmosphere. Most radiator caps pressurize a system to 16PSI. That's above the 14.7 that's already atmospheric pressure. To get the same pressure by swimming down underwater, you'd have to go over 10 meters to probably about 35'. I think the extra pressure raises the boiling point by over 35* F (up to about 250*)
