Venus

Venus has a high surface air pressure. According to NASA, the pressure is about 100 times that we feel on Earth. If you were able to send a polystyrene cup to Venus, it would shrink to 1/3 of its volume. This is due to the pressure acting upon it. To get a similar result on earth, you need to submerge the cup to 900m below sea level.
