Really? Those blind shrimp aren’t deep frying their food on the undersea volcanos? Are we sure?

Yeah, because it's in water, not oil, it ain't frying. It's boiling.

The pressure at that depth allows the temperature to get way higher than 100°C, so I bet it probably is closer to frying than boiling.

Pressure cooking is still boiling though
