Fair enough. Next tutorial how to avoid heart attacks.

Thanks for the tips. Watching this because I found myself trapped in quicksand today getting a coastal geocache. I had to wing it today, next time I'll be a little prepared.
Thank god you're alright!
Dang it really was a problem for you
I got stuck in the quicksand.. my life was at risk.. I could have died so very easily......
But then the cameraman reminded me this is just a show and he is only 6 feet away.
What do you suggest? Come back later. go intentionally jump back into the death puddle after setting up a tripod?
I suggest you try to live by the weapons you use to sell your show.. put a little risk into it, else you are just an actor and we should take your 'advice' as minimal at best.
I definitely get behind what you're saying to an extent, don't get me wrong, but.. It seems silly to me to suggest that in order to make an instructional piece of media around surviving "x" you must go into "x" in the probably worst case context one who'd be watching the media would go into it. It's kind of like teaching self defense. You don't ask for a female instructor who grabs up a purse, puts on a mini-skirt and goes walking dark alleys on the weekends.
@@doodlypear9393i know this comment old, but yeah lol, it's like he's telling a person teaching how to survive a street fight, to actually purposely get into a street fight with a random person. Some people are that dense.
when i saw this in my recommendations, i told myself "i should probably learn how to get out of quicksand incase it ever happens"
How To Survive Quicksand? first: pretend you cant come out. second, come out
Han Solo It was to teach others how to get out and what to do if it ever happened.. of course it was staged. "Let me put my life in danger for a TH-cam video." Yea...... no.
Han Solo your the smartest person alive
quicksands HATE him
😂😂😂😂
Actually, step 1 is only necessary when there's a camera watching xD
“Once you get your legs out” aren’t you skipping the part where we learn how to actually get out
He said that "the way out is staying calm and making small movements" He also mentioned that "fighting it will sunk him deeper"
The key is to get as close to the edge as you can level your chest out on the surface. Make small movements by wiggling your leg out to the surface.
Basically what you do is wiggle your legs upward, after you've gotten to the edge and your hands are already out. Once your legs are out yiu can gradually pull yourself further out.
I seen a few videos but never done this myself so I am no expert. From what I can tell, you won' sink deeper than waist height because of the density of quicksand and so a human is naturally buoyant. Pretty important, because it means you can wiggle around a bit without worrying about sinking. The sand gets hard because you displace a lot of the water which makes you get encased like concrete. Wiggling helps soften the sand and let water turn it to mud so you can pull yourself out. it also appears this is how people fall into one. It looks solid at first but your movement over it causes the ground to soften into mud.
As you wiggle, you can pull yourself out if at waist height. You should lay down flat as possible while you pull yourself out which increases the surface area and lower your ground pressure so you don't sink. It's the same logic why snow shoes don't sink into the snow. Likewise why tracked vehicles don't sink in mud but wheeled ones do. If only leg deep, you can wiggle one leg out, once that one is out kneel down and put all your weight on that one. Kneeling distribute your weight along its entire length, and putting your weight on that one helps you free your other one. Wiggle the other leg, pulling hard can cause injuries since its encased in sand. Once both legs is out, its best you crawl out so you have the lowest ground pressure possible and not sink.
Yes it's clearly staged, get over it. While it might look cheesy to many, others may have never known the solution and this might save their life someday. I for instance knew about the staying calm thing but never knew how crucial cleaning all the mud afterwards is.
Ozzie Storm gay?
yes
Been there, Done that in Mexican desert stream sand. Stepped on what, from the surface, looked like a sand bar but, in reality, was sand buoyed by slight positive pore water pressure (underwater spring). It was like stepping into a swimming pool. No resistance at all. Fortunately, I was next to a rock ledge but, it was hard to get out because pulling out created suction on my body.. Fortunately, I was young (22) and strong but, I bloodied my fingertips getting out. I just wanted to note that this guy's recommendations are spot on! (old geologist)
Brooks Anderson wow! What a man. Thanks for the story! Btw, I'm a female. Just used my husbands profile. Didn't want you to think I was some "guy" getting dreamy eyed over your comment. Anyways, "what a man!"
This guy was afraid of sunstroke. I was worried that it would rain and I would drown.
quick sand is mostly sand,clay,and sometimes saltwater.the saltwater and the pressure compressing the solids will only enable the sand to sink you up to the waist.quicksand hardens quickly,so wiggle your legs as if swimming upwards to free the water.
once you can kick freely,lie on your back(you can float on it if you distribute your weight in a wide area).start to backstroke(it might seem stupid and hard,but it works out the water even more).once you reach the edge,don't try to stand up!shimmy towards solid and stable ground(remember to keep your head up). slowly get up and find water to wash off the gunk. *REMINDERS* remember to:STAY CALM!(vibrations free the water *around your body* [around includes the bottom,sinking you even more].),quicksand has a high viscosity
(it gets really sticky),and if there is a friend or bystander nearby,ask them to contact emergency services or a life guard if you are at the beach( *DON'T ASK THEM TO PULL YOU OUT!!!!!!!* they could hurt,injure,or rupture the skin trapped in the quicksand, causing infection.).that's all😁
I got caught in sludge in a marsh land and it was pulling me in further as I fought it. Than I realize it was better to stay calm as I made baby steps to get back on stable land. This did not happen in Africa, South America or even some jungle in Asia. It happened right across from Co-op city in New York City.
Did you make it out??
@@ausmanx1161 unfortunately ☹️😱 I'm ALIVE! 🙂 ARE YOU HAPPY FOR ME?😁
@@qolspony haha yes! Got to make sure! 😂
@@qolsponyare you sure you didn't die.
@@ausmanx1161Nope he’s messaging you from the sludge lol
Someone will find this comment one day.
Don't Read My Profile Picture and after one day I found it
Oh hello there!
I did
I like your profile picture
After a month I found it hi
my shower would take eternity.
Hello fellow Bangladeshi :)
Hi!
Hi I'm sad because your a Bangladeshi I like Bangladeshis but I live in india Hyderabad.telengana
If you showered in quicksand it would take a decade
@@dewanfariharamisa5664 Hello mate Bangladeshi
Always have a cameraman and production crew around when you meet up with quicksand.
I don’t know why am I watching this I barely leave my house 😂
It’s always good to watch how to survive documentaries, it’s good idea for safety reasons
Everybody has a" plan to stay calm " till life punches you in the face
Glad I Watched This just to learn.
"I've been watching out so closely for predators that I run directly into quicksand." Lol yeah right not scripted at all
😆
"Now my clothes are clean, I can carry on." Me after laundry
Wow, this was so helpful! Next you should make a video on how not to drown and show you fall in a pool,then grab the side of the pool and climb out.
Bro might as well had a pool ladder
I encountered it only once. It is SCARY! It's the panic that will kill you. too.
1:00 does that mean peeing while trapped in quicksand increases your chances of survival?
😱
😂😂🤣🤣😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
😂

play darude sandstorm and just do it probably you can get out from thesand

The quick sand would be jumping and vibrating around with the beat

"I been looking for predators,but I stumble in to quicksand" my first thought was why is this being recorded like it was planned out?
Wow I was around sand in the woods with my friends growing up, the amount of luck we had and didn't realize.
Ive been in quicksand. Out exploring a swamp. Thought just soft mud, until i tried to get out. Each pull of my legs caused me to sink deeper. Sank to my waist in minutes. I admit i paniced and struggled. Luckily low over hanging branches were within reach. Thats how i got out.
Me and my buddy when into muddy quicksand like this, we were just above waist deep and he's like " bro I can't get out come and help me " at this point we were both torso deep into it and the edge was 8 or so meters away from us. I get over to him and pull him up until he was knee deep but this causes me to sink even faster. I'm now upper torso deep (and inch or so from where my chest line starts) and he has just got out. We both look at each other and laugh and I pull myself up slightly by wriggling my head and chest on The quicksand. Torso deep again I am able to reach a large root that came out of the mud and with my fingertips pull myself back up to knee deep where I walk back to we're he was. We start walking back to our group and I look back to see the root sink into the quicksand. We were 14 years old.
I've once been stuck in quick sand...it's difficult getting out...but luckily my dad was with me at that time
During an athletic event, I ended up waist deep in mud, I was slow, therefore alone and the next wave of runners wasn't gonna show for another hour. I did exactly this, small rotations until I could feel my legs rising. Only difference was I was laying on my back, since the solid ground was behind me
my friend got stuck in quick sand one. me and my other friend were digging and digging to try and get her out. it didn't work. I said to my friend "keep digging, I'm getting help" I ran as fast as I possibly could to my parents and my friends parents, to out of breath to talk. I managed to say "sophie sinking in sand!" my dad got half way there when he realised a very kind genorous man had help free sophie from the sand and at this point the sand was just past her waist. she was very lucky that day and I'm so thankful that man was there to save her ❤
There are two types of quicksands, right? This is an example of surviving the mud one. But what about the other graver quicksand which is...... the _sand_ one? I personally think once you've fallen into it, it's an absolute checkmate.
More often than not, quicksand is basically mud. Dry quicksand is usually considered to be a myth, though supposedly scientists made some in a lab, but it's unknown how common it is.
There's something even worse - a mud kind that is in a swamp area. You think it's a puddle, but you die drowning in dirt and water.
There are videos on YT of tour guides at Mont St. Michel showing people how to get out of quicksand.
Not going to lie but this man is quite attractive...
Fishice Fishnice He's sexy af.

S3rious Gam3playz Who's heart did he steal to be in jail?
to me, he looks like a combination of Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins
fuck him
When i was young and watched cartoons stating that you sink beyond your waist and you can only escape with someones help..... however with watching this. you can never trust a cartoon again 😢😢😢😢😥
This was my favorite in national geographic.
What this guy failed to mention was that the human body is less dense than quicksand. So if you can make small movements to get yourself in a horizontal position, then you will be able to wiggle your way out.
As a kid in the 80s we still think about this situation. That’s why we are here
Close your eyes when he tries to get out. Sounds like a different video.
U pervert.
Really? 😒😂😂
Well, to me it sounds like a man struggling with diarrhea
I feel like my parent's was staring at me when that sound came =__=
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
One of the top fears in 80s action TV shows!
How to survive quicksand?
1. Forget your Jordan 11
2. Now try to escape the mud.
I might as well start looking into this because considering how things are going in 2020, I might have to put these skills to use in my bedroom very soon.
Fun fact; there's such a thing as quicksand porn. I watched a whole documentary about it.
OhMyGodBrittany That sounds hot. Got a link?
Yeah, let's call it a "documentary" ;)
lol...google 'rule 34' 😜
Hazen is my platonic love!!😍
scary, heartattack scary😨
😉
I've often heard how to escape quicksand but this is the first time I've actually seen it
This kinda gave me anxiety
vicky coco same gurl
Kristina’s camera roll same gurl
INTernet Chicken same gurl
I couldn't even lift myself out of a pool without a handle. What more a quicksand 😂
I'd probably lose my patience and die >///
Love how he’s pretending like he didn’t do this on purpose for the shot
This guy just copied the Bear Grylls quick sand video!
So massive movements and panic are key.
I FALLING AND I CAN'T GET UP
Bah! Try digging through Manitoba clay! :)
“This is dangerous”
Has a camera crew filming him that can pull him out anytime lol
Why don't you just use a shovel or dig your way out?
Mars Bars every tried standing in front of a wave? And not falling over? That's what quicksand is like, it's not like dirt, the shovel would he too hard to move and it would get stuck. Ok, maybe you're just a city person so you don't really know, if you ever go on a rainy trail and just stand in then mud for a bit, you'll realize that it actually takes a bit of effort to pull your foot out.
oh yeah cause you're always going to be carrying a shovel with you everywhere you go lmao
I’m pretty sure this was a joke
I’ve been in quicksand before! Lol, thought I was going to have to pull a Indian jones.
Pick a side an start kicking
T Norris 4
I know he mentioned the heat stroke bit but he could have also mentioned that it's physically impossible to sink and drown in quick sand. Buoyancy folks.
How deep is Quicksand?
It can be ankle-deep, waist-deep, belly-deep, or chest-deep. Depending on the Quicksand pit ofc.
What a smart dude
So it's kinda like oobleck plz like
Hello dear friend ! Now you are going to hear, My name is Niklas I come from STOCKHOLM, This is 6 years that I add Your beautiful series that you recorded. You should know that you are my best Favorite Person, You are strong and courageous, Don't forget this compliment😇🤗👌💪🙏✍Gracias Se🎥nör
better survival skill is to watch your step no matter where you are going. If you do fall into it, quickly spread yourself out, at which point you probably won't sink, since it's the vertical pose that puts all the stress onto your feet that penetrates the mud and sinks you. Depends on the density of the medium I think. What he got into looked like mud, you get out of that easy. You have to stay in the mud or wet sand even long enough to sink even a foot deep. I doubt anyone got killed by this bs. A tar pit might be a different story.
"sorry bud, forgot to press the record button. Can you do it again?"
that's not quicksand, just fucking mud and water from the hole you dug up to make the pit. Hope you refill it back up shit will die for sure bros
bro don't even make me give this shit ass video another view by replying to you, these guys dug a mofo hole to do this, why is it there!/?
Raijin Enel You clearly have never been in any area of biodiversity in your life
343 Industries then how did it get there?! It's next to a rock and an open mofo pond, how did it form there??? No. It is dug up by their team, the sun is above him so must have shot the segment midday, meaning all morning they were digging that shit up
Raijin Enel Yes, this is quicksand. And yes is quicksand of mud.
please tell me you dont take you image of quicksand from cartoons because thats clearly quicksand
By the time you showed demonstration my head was already under quicksand.
*WHAT IF..... you do a head down dive into quick sand???*
Tic Tac How to escape quicksand while head planted in it : Eat it! Dont be shy it yummy ;)
Tic Tac well then, your dead! But who would be stupid enough to do that?
MEGA Noob drowning and suffocation are two different things. Drowning would probably be the more appropriate term.
Just get a plunger or vacuum it up
Matthew M Nope, suffocating is when you can't get any oxygen into your lungs, drowning is when you inhale a liquid. Examples: a plastic bag over your head is suffocating, breathing in water is drowning.
How to survive quicksand: get out of it. Goosh I love these tutorials.
So, if you're not near a "side" you're dead
This dude really acting like this wasn't intentional also acting like that was real quick sand 😂
staged. plain and simple.
Erick Geronimo how so
Ricky Nuggets so he was basically in a mud pit?
Plot twist : Matthew McConaughey here gets bitten by deadly water moccasins cleaning his pantelones
Hey this actually shows how to get out of quicksand, all the rest of those, those girls just drown. Thanks
GOOD TO KNOW. My property has a swamp, lots of mud. One never knows. 50 acres might have a mud pit somewhere.
I feel way safer knowing this imagine im walking in the city as usual and poof im in quick sand
so quicksand is basically like oobleck. nice.
The best way is to move one leg calming up while putting some weight on the other leg wiggling the leg a little & slow, then bend that leg & on top of the sand, & then do the same with the other leg. Idk i saw a lady do it in a quick sand she got out easily
I got caught in quicksand once when I was 7-8 years old. Or does it count as quicksand if it's mud without sand grains? Either way, I'm really glad my dad found me and pulled me out by the time it got over my waistline.
How do I wash out my hooha if I run into a situation like this?
Great to know.
What a legend
I live in a city so I dont have to worry about this sort of thing very much but one time me and my friend were jumping in mud puddles when I was younger and he fell thigh deep in mud and he lost both his shoes way down there
"My Clothes are clean" Adventurer: It is not clean at all
I daily watch Primal Surviver in NGC my tv❤
this must be one of the scariest things to face... i would be sooo scared. :(
Good to know.
Where is the so popular method called “ laying your back on the mud and push” lol
Comments are almost as big a meme as his grunting
camera guy - "yeah thats good "
the dude - "HELPPP!°!!!"
And I was here thinking it was a sink or swim situation
My brain straight up went into panic mode!!!!! 😫
Nice demonstration mr Audel !
Wtf that timing i seen this 1day left in tv lol and now i see it in recomanded
This is why I look down when I walk
Quick sand almost killed me, until I got pulled out by some guy. I was young at the time.
I was really scared for him!
Excellent video.
Make a video on how to survive on/under a ice lake.
