I thought quicksand would be a much bigger problem in my day to day life.
Tbf you wouldn't hear the people who drowned in quicksand complain about it afterwards.
You kidding me? for like a good half hour they won’t shut up about it!
Help me, I can't move, I am sinking, help m.....
The thing about quicksand that bothers me is that they never explain where you would encounter it. So I just assumed all sand could potentially become quicksand if it was deep enough. I guess I thought beaches weren't deep enough
You need fine sand and lots of water so beaches weren't exactly wrong but it's still somewhat rare. Warning sign on Texel (Netherlands). Swamps are another candidate though there's also other traps there, as well as mudflats... or at least it's a very similar phenomenon the German term is different (Schlickloch vs. Treibsand) but it's essentially the same thing. Don't go walking from island to island without someone who can read the ground, maps would be useless they change every low tide. Also don't leave when the water is already coming back. Also, don't complain to your hotel that the sea is gone it's a feature, not a bug.
Yeah I've never seen quicksand, but I have stepped in that thick-ass mud that traps you and schlorps your shoe off
"Schlorp" is a very fitting word here
This was always the reason at school for why we weren't allowed to splash on puddles or walk in the mud. Even as a kid I called bullshit because I never saw tons of abandoned shoes in the mud. As a parent now I wonder how the heck they keep the kids out of the mud and puddles as well as they did
That’s a dope warning sign 🙌
Yes. Also being burried alive
To be fair, it wasn't until much later that I learned that the "buried alive" was metaphorical. See: debt, stress, etc.
I mean it was an actual thing too though!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premature_burial
Happened during the Rape of Nanking too, except they did it on purpose to civilians.
Oh for sure, but it's not nearly as much an issue in day to day life as we were led to believe. I suppose I could have been clearer.
Edgar Allan Poe has entered the chat...
Im still worried about this one.
same! I thought I was the only one!
