Damnit, I was just getting past my childhood quicksand fears from watching Tarzan, Gilligan’s Island, and Land of the Lost.

Wasn't there also a story last week about a guy, maybe in a truck, who was stuck in quicksand?

I watched a YT video last weekend of Murphy’s diesel rescuing a D11 from quicksand.

Jonny Quest had me thinking quicksand was a top 5 leading cause of death on Planet Earth.

Quicksand's nothing compared to The Devil's Triangle!

It was everywhere in jungle adventure movies. I think most kids of the 50s, 60s and 70s assumed you could barely walk outside the house without sinking.

He was on foot and about chest deep in it. It's maybe 5 miles from my farm. A couple neighbors have joked about sneaking in because we want to see quicksand.
