Actually, hat is one thing I am pretty certain that can not be done. Nukes are actually pretty delicate things. They work by compressing fissionables. I would imagine the crush of one from the deep sea pressure would cause a fizzle.

Water pressure at 1 mile down is about 160 atmospheres. Is that that much? Also, I think the Russians have some experience in this.
