Answer:

We can't feel it because the air within our bodies (in our lungs and stomachs, for example) is exerting the same pressure outwards, so there's no pressure difference and no need for us to exercise any effort.

Given:

We do not feel atmospheric pressure

To find:

The reason

Step-by-step explanation:

The atmospheric pressure outside the human body is equal to the blood pressure inside the human body. That means the pressure in our bodies is roughly the same as the atmospheric pressure outside.

Therefore, both the forces acting on our bodies cancel out and we do not feel uncomfortable.

Hence, the outside atmospheric pressure and the inside blood pressure are the same in human bodies is the reason behind not feeling the air pressure.
