There are plenty of layers that are far denser than you, all the way down to the theorized metallic hydrogen, but you'd be squished thinner than a sheet of paper long before you got to worrying about where to stand.

Won't you only really sink until your body density roughly matches the air density, since past that buoyancy will try to carry you upward again? Not to say it won't still be deadly, you'll be suffocated and probably also cooked, but crushed too?
