Two News Stories Of People Getting Stuck And Being Rescued From Quicksand.

This one is from a hiker who got stuck in quicksand while hiking in the canyons in Utah. A while back another hiker also got stuck in quicksand in the canyons in Utah. I guess hikers need to be careful not to step on unstable ground when hiking in a slot canyon.

And this one is from a woman who got stuck in some knee deep quicksand while walking at a beach in the UK.
