    Learning about buoyancy in relation to quicksand is a helluva thing. You panic thinking you’re going to sink and drown but then you stop not even half way and realize it’s just more annoying mud but at the beach.

      It was in the dry sand part, not the water, but I get your point. The first person was just walking along and then one of their legs sank to their crotch.
