    Water pressure?
    If a 1metre tall man is immersed in water, will there be a difference in pressure in head and feet.

    Yes.

    The pressure on an object is directly related to its depth in water. So if this 1 -meter tall man is vertical in the water, feet down, his feet will experience a higher water pressure from the water than will his head.
