      Change in pressure. Those pipes are not as high-pressure as the surrounding ocean, so they risk being sucked into the pipes by the pressure imbalance.

        The Nord stream pipelines were actually at significantly higher pressure than the surrounding ocean though, they were pretty shallow, and at a pressure of 100 atmospheres.

                A ∆P walks into a bar.

                The rest of the town violently follows him until he ceases to exist.

                Alternative:

                A ∆P walks into a bar. The bartender serves drinks, furniture, and patrons to the whole block (violently) and the ∆P blinks out of existence.

                  Some might wonder how the hell a ∆P just walks into a bar like that?

                  It’s just a joke and not that deep, so that is a very good question!
