At 1000 feet there is 445 psi to crush human lungs and I'm trying to figure out an exact number for the skull.

A skull is full of liquid, and therefore would be difficult to be crushed since liquids can not be compressed. Ears and nose would fill with water and that would be it. Skulls found in sunken ships are not crushed even at tremendous depths.

Your lungs won't get crushed because the gas in them would be at an equal pressure. Your skull would only get crushed if you were an airhead.

nicely final time I checked, scientists are actually not attempting out that because it quite is not mandatory. yet once you bypass a million mile under the atlantic ocean, your physique would be under plenty to a lot rigidity and your cranium will fall down under the rigidity.

hundreds of thousands of pounds per square inch, your skull will fill up, and then it will take hundreds of thousands of pounds per square inch in order to crush it.
