I heard that Mariana trench pressure is approximately 1000atm. How strong is it? Can anyone tell me how strong is it? Can it break bricks?

One atmosphere is a little under 15 pounds per square inch, so that would be about 15,000 pounds per square inch. It might break bricks, but the brick is pushing out as hard as the water pushes in, so probably not. A person can't breathe at that pressure because oxygen is pushing in but not out, so you would die of oxygen poisoning.
