Have you ever had a sloppy encounter with quicksand? Also, consider checking out Keeps at www.keeps.com/thoughty2
I have, many times...I drowned I tell you...sad...i never died...These dreams in my head
I love how you advertise
I think instead of shear sheer strength, you mean friction coefficient.
Shear is the force perpendiculair to a plane
But how easily things slide past each other is the field of Tribology.
Shear strengt is a material property, that yes could be regarded as the viscosity of a solid, but it's within the object. 2 objects rubbing together experience friction, which is dictates by hardness, surface roughness, lubrication, normal force etc.
Not the shear strenght of the material.
When I was 12 years old I fell into a big, deep mud pit. I was stuck and sinking in the freezing muck for nearly two hours and sank over my head before I was rescued.
Speaking of your sponsor, can you do a video on hairloss? I am 38 and have never left my house without my hat on. I have long thick hair. My half brother who never wears hats is two years younger than me and is almost totally bald. How/why is this?
When I was a kid I always thought quicksand was going to be a bigger challenge in life.
Isnt it weird this is not taught at schools?
But well, not even actual History is taught, so whatever.
Most in school's history class is not even real... so...
Same with lava. As a child I was certain that same day I would have to flee from it.
Im brutally disappointed by the lack of relevance that quicksand has played in my life.
That and meteors.
@@EddVCR To be fair, a meteor only plays a role in your life for the amount of seconds it takes for the shockwave to hit after the light has. depending on how far away it is you could have a couple minutes before you're fucked. The tunguska Meteor blew up over siberia in 1908 and people said in London that they could read a paper at midnight with how bright it got for a little while. Anyway when it blew up the shockwave was so powerful it leveled every tree in about a 750 km area all facing outward from the center. There were just a small number of the trees that were left standing up still... but they were missing every single needle and branch on the tree so it was literally just the trunk pointing upward(they were pine trees so just the 1 main trunk). It exploded overhead like the one in Russia in 2015. The shockwave was so powerful that it literally ripped off every branch and needle while leaving the tree still standing directly under it since the shockwave was coming straight down. It also cause the ground to look "Like a rug that has been bunched up". The force was so strong form the explosion that it caused the ground to ripple like water. Anyway, off to learn more terrifying info that can't be used to save myself...

Kudos to the model demonstrating quicksand safety. Should keep the stinkers happy.
I recall on a long walk with my ex, being against a river bank and seeing the rays of the setting sun casting a shimmering path across the sands that led to a tree studded rocky outcropping that demanded our presence.
We soon realized our mistake as each step produced an increasingly vigorous suction at our feet. Unlike the woman here, we had no training, but a rapid ligjtfooted skipping motion got us out alive. Completely ruined my fancy new Japanese sneakers tho. There was mud up to our ankles.

People literally get a kink with quicksand?
Just when I thought I've seen it all, I get proven wrong.
there is an ass for every seat.
@@JsDs1020 Unless there are more asses than available seats. In that case, you'd need to round up more seats in order to accommodate the extra surplus of asses.
@@NightBazaar Wouldn't it be the opposite, that you would need more seats for there not to be an ass for every seat? This would be the norm, since there are more human seats than human asses. Though you could have 1 ass shifting seats, or 1 large ass using multiple seats simultaneously, so you could still claim there is an ass for every seat, just not an ass for every seat simultaneously. Gawd, how does anyone ever learn English as a second language?

edit: there is a terrible joke to be made.
Best quicksand advice is situational awareness and frequent discussion of procedure and protocol if you are planning on being around quicksand or quickmud.
First off, if you are gonna be around that, a good walking stick is a must. This will if used properly allow you do identify it before you get it in. It should be a tapering stick to a not sharp but fairly narrow point. You can have a broader point on the other end or have a broader ferrule for the narrow end if you are traveling over varried terrain that needs a broader end.
Using the stick more like a sight impaired person than a walking support and testing the ground in front of you, you can give yourself early warning to dangerous ground and avoid getting sucked in. The stick can also help you get your self out by disturbing the compacted sand around a limb allowing you to ease it out.
Procedurally, keep fresh in your mind that as soon as you think you are in a quicksand situation, stop, then immediately, sit down and lay back as flat as possible.
This will change your center of balance and gravity and get it out from directly above your feet, and it will increase the surface area with which your mass is applying force on the sand. It will immediately slow the rate of and the depth to which you sink into the sand, and by falling back, you likely ensure that most or a significant fraction of your body is supported by solid ground since you walked into the quicksand FROM solid ground so that is likely what your trailing foot is still on. This greatly reduces the difficulty in getting the trapped leg free. Remember that as stated its nearly impossible to sink terminally into quicksand and that struggling vigorously and pulling hard only makes the situation worse. Nothing good happens fast. You got here by walking quickly and confidently into a bad patch of ground. Trying to get out of it quickly is going to be as bad or worse. Slow and steady wins the race.
The stick can be also used to push against a hard surface if possible to help you push out once you have created some cavity in which your trapped limb or limbs can move in.
As to creating that cavity the most important part is to remember how and when to use hard strong force. Rarely. But its very important to remeber that the cavity will collapse if you remove pressure from the "wall" quickly much faster and it will compact much harder when it does. You want to push with gentle firm and gradual consistent pressure and once you have a cavity thats larger than the limb so that you have some wiggle room, be very gentle when you move back to the starting point think about how kinetic sand works but its more fluid so if you compact it in one direction you want to remove the pressure very slowly so that it has time to settle to a point that its momentum doesnt exceed its shear point and it will hold its shape. This will also allow water to diffuse out of it into the cavity, which will help the wall to be stronger and it will soften up the sand still around the limb allowing it to be easier to pull out of. Its all about being calm and methodical, not panicking.
If you are backpacking having something like a closed cell foam sleeping pad would be great because if you can unroll that it will act like a flotation device if you have to lean forward for some reason you can lay that in front of you to increase even more your surface area and bouyancy. The absolute most important thing it to remember do not panic, struggle vigorously or allow your arms to become trapped.
Stop, sit lay and move slowly gently and with a plan and intent. Know your plan, be aware, avoid when possible, remember to not panic, and work your plan.
Can’t forget the quicksand scene in Blazing Saddles.

There is an error in your analysis. Just as there are different kinds of sand, there are different kinds of quicksand that vary in their density. There is quicksand that will swallow people because it has pockets of air in it caused primarily by methane from decaying plant matter beneath it. These bubbles reduce the density well below that of the human body, and yes people do sink in it. That is why quicksand in jungles and other places with a lot of decaying foliage are so dangerous compared to coastal sand only quicksand. Perhaps a little more thorough research about the topic is needed.
Also, not everything that we call quicksand is actually quicksand.... turns out we can be quite ambiguous with our usage of words.
@@EvilFookaire Very true. In sand deserts around the world shifting dunes create voids beneath them that one can be sucked into that is often called "quicksand" because it behaves like quicksand in some ways, but there is no water involved and is really not quicksand at all.
They never mention peat bogs that can swallow you up on here. The bogs is a morrass of rotted slimy vegetation from moss and it can float over a deep body of water If you step through the crust of it, you will go under. But nothing is ever mentioned. The scene in Tarzen there the 2 guys go under is not quicksand but in reality is a bog...
@@rondelby2482 Technically speaking the scene in Tarzan would not be termed a "bog". --- Where are bogs found in the world?
Bogs are generally found in cool, northern climates. They often develop in poorly draining lake basins created by glaciers during the most recent ice age. The world's largest wetland is a series of bogs in the Siberia region of Russia.Sep 12, 2012
bog | National Geographic Societywww.nationalgeographic.org › encyclopedia › bog
and - The combination of lack of oxygen, lack of minerals, and highly acid condition greatly retards the action of bacteria and fungi, the usual decay organisms. With the retardation of decomposition of the dead moss, a Sphagnum peat develops under the living plants. This is particularly the case in areas where there is a mean annual temperature of below 10 °C (50 °F), which also retards decay.
In tropical environments, the decay of plant matter happens far too quickly to form what scientists would call a bog.
Yes research...The Tarzan scene was good but they need to go to those places and of course with oxygen tanks and do a video to see if such soft places will swallow up a human.
90 mile Beach in new Zealand, has pockets of quicksand along it. Mum used to live there as a kid & saw several cars get lifelong free parking. While about a dozen people run around the partially devoured car, to try & stop it sinking further , while help ran to the nearest farm.
Never heard if the cars got towed out, so after this, will presume the owners chose the lifetime free parking offer - oh, if you drive the beach north to the exit/entry point, any insurance you hold, becomes nul & void, due to QUICKSAND, + it's Not, a Road - it's a beach, used as a road, which has nearly wiped out one species of shellfish found nowhere else on earth.

This video was actually pretty scary for me to watch. I was stuck in quicksand-like mud when on a canoe trip in high school. Like you said, it came up just past my waist and I was stuck for probably close to an hour. We were able to wedge me out with canoe paddles, creating pockets of water to get out. At the time it just seemed kinda funny, but looking back that could have been so bad lol!
Me and my big sis got stuck in quicksand on a farm when we were kids, it was so f-ing scary, we were like 6 and 8 at the time, and we were across the paddocks all alone, it was one of those things were one of us got out and then fell in pulling the other out, it got to a point where she just ran away, i dont even remember how i got out but it was so scary lmao
This happened to me on a canoe trip with my dad as a kid. It was scary at the time but luckily my dad was a quick thinker and got me out. Quicksand movie scenes always hit different after that though

well, im going to tell you my experience with quicksand . i discovered some on a beach in spain , several times . walking along ..all of a sudden you "fall in a hole" .. it doesnt matter if you stand still, or move , as coastal "quick" sand has absolutely zero boyancy , you dont get "stuck" .. you instantly sink into it . my father grabbed my arm and pulled me out . very frightening as a young competitive swimmer, the problem being you cant/dont float in quicksand . after being removed, we positioned our family patch next to the sand to rescue unuspecting victims .. but .. the first group of people who walked past.. walked straight over the top of the quicksand! .. 10ft futher down the beach .. they disappeared into the quicksand , and we jumped into rescue mode .. later on, my father lowered me into the quicksand , now 40ft from its original location , and i was able to get a toe onto hard ground (the gravel floor) .. but i guess what im trying to say is .. you dont sink into quick sand , you fall through it at roughly the speed of a ball dropped out of a window .. its called "quick" for a reason .. if you're sinking into sandy mud.. it aint quicksand .. and quicksand has no "edge" .. so you cant pull yourself out , as the edge collapses . if youre on your own , and you sink into to quicksand that is deeper than you are tall .. your head is going under in..about 3 seconds .. maybe non-coastal quicksand is more forgiving .. but these are more like bogs and swamps , more viscous , and not liquid like coastal quick sand . as a child of about 8years old, the fact that underground water causes patches of coastal quick sand to move about very quickly was the creepiest aspect . the films dont tell it the way it is .. and if bear grills jumped in to demonstrate his ability to extract himself out of a pool of mislabeled "mud" (as he likes to do) , he'd be f***ed in about 4 seconds.. but then again ... i saw him demonstrating how to cross an alaskan river in winter (obviously you run over the frozen/ fallen trees to get to the other side ..rather than straddle it and carefully crossing, as being soaking wet doesnt affect your survival chances..apparently) ..because as you know , when surviving in alaska , its best to run around like a careless t*t .. i ignore him . hope this helps
Thank you!! Very helpful :D thank you and your father for saving lives. Truly a hero!!!
I have no experience with quicksand but once during an unexpected heavy downpour I ran through a muddy puddle, maybe 3-4 inches deep, nothing dangerous, with my flip flops and one got stuck in the mud. It was incredibly difficult to get it out, it was as if the wet mud held onto it with all its strength. I can only imagine how hard it must be if both your legs and bottom are stuck in such a substance. Scary!

Lol
my time at the beach has taught me a lot about this subject. for fun i would go into the soaked sand, stand still and then sort of jiggle my feet and legs thereby causing the sand to become viscous and allow me to sink into it. I learned that i could get quite deep doing this and i also learned that the sheer suction made it nearly impossible to straight up pull my legs out. I came to the natural assumption that because my jiggling would allow me to sing because it made the sand viscous that if i jiggled more i could pull one leg out at a time. Stillness = hard and motion = soft. the sand needs to be soft in order for you to escape.

I've been stuck in quicksand, only calf deep. I did it on purpose as an experiment! [duh!] Once the water from between the sand grains had been forced to the surface by me jumping up and down, the sand set like concrete. I had to spend many minutes digging the hard sand out from behind my feet manually. By this time the tide had come in and filled a channel between me and safety. I had to swim thirty yards to shore. There was no danger of sinking in the sand, but there was a distinct danger of being drowned while anchored by my feet.
That's actually quite interesting, glad you freed yourself in time. I.agine doing the same thing, but coming face to face with a gator, mountain lion, or Kirby salesman...
We discovered that when the water of the Virgin River (at about 2500 feet below the level of the high mesa) is at a certain level, the sandy bottom turns to quicksand all over the place. It was shallow, and there was a group hiking, so we were good to play in it and experiment. I could definitely tell that the sand put actual pressure on the submerged body parts, more than just sand packed around it. And 6 feet of the stuff would be quite deadly.

I've been stuck in quicksand before. It was frightening. This was in Virginia Beach at Sandbridge, summer 1999. Sandbridge, like it's southern neighbor, the Outter Banks, is really a gigantic sand bar, with an ocean on one side and a bay or sound on the other. It's scary to think that just three feet below those parking lots, those houses, those playgrounds, is quicksand. I know because we were building the big picnic shelters that you can use today. Each leg had to rest in an empty oil drum whose bottom is 4 or 5 feet below the surface. When they were all about level, concrete would be poured in to anchor them. We had one of the holes dug about 3 feet deep, and I was standing nearby with a grade rod. You can't get right at the edge of the hole, because the more you dig, the more surrounding sand falls in, making the top of the hole wider and wider. I was asked to check grade, and when I reached the stick into the hole, some asshole pushed me. Had I went in head first, I would have died a terror and panic filled death with no one being able to save me in tyme. But at the last split second as I was tipping, I jumped in order to right myself. I was immediately up to my knees with nothing to reach for. Not even sand, as the hole was shaped like a crater. I've had a strong fear of quicksand since childhood, and as I was slowly sinking, I asked the others that were standing around, "Are any of you going to do anything, or is this the way I'm going to die?" (I was already almost eye level with the surface sand, and their feet.) The foreman on the backhoe positioned the boom over top of me, curled the bucket, and lowered it down. I reached up and got a firm two hand grip on the bucket edges, and without warning, he just began to raise the boom. If I hadn't immediately let go, my legs would have instantly begun to rip apart at the knees. Partially out of pain and anger, I hollered at my boss like he was an idiot. He lowered the boom again, and I told him to remove his hands from the controls. This took all of the full body strength I had, now with agonising knees and ankles, to hold fast and slowly work my legs and feet back up mere centimeters at a tyme. When both feet were finally free, my arms utterly exhausted, my legs extra heavy from being caked with wet sand, he raised me up and over to the dry surface. When I landed, I limped over to the nearest park bench and told them to leave me alone for the rest of the day.
Think about that the next tyme you're at the beach. Especially those that are based on huge sand bars. Just three feet below you.
way too long
@@cozy6560 What is?
Thank u for ur story!!! And it's definitely not to long!!!!! And, I'm sorry what happened to u!!
terrifying
Don't forget Blazing Saddles. "Damn that was lucky. We darned near lost a 400 dollar hand cart".
Did anyone else worry about quicksand as a child despite the fact that there is such a low chance coming across it?
Ive always worried I’d never see it too. It’s been a life goal of mine to get berried alive in quick sand, I just couldn’t imagine a better way out of this world.
@@Jeffrey.Kennedy lmao what a way to go.
It's not THAT hard to come across it. What's hard is finding one deep enough to be a life threat.
Sandy beaches usually have a layer of typically ankle-deep quicksand near the waterline. And if you live away from permanent water, mud and bogs after lots of rain are pretty much he same principle as quicksand and can get pretty deep.
i think we all did from cartoons lol
I lost my sandal in quicksand from a creek, they were brand new too I even tried to dig them out but never found it.
Years ago, here in Alaska, a man got stuck in quicksand. The helicopters tied him on the chest to try and help him out. He was ripped in half. RIP
😲oh my goodness 😔
Oh shittt
Why did I predict that outcome as i read it
So he's Ok then?
@@Tape-dn5gh- The part that he lost... Ok... Sounds about right....
15:30 - I'm gonna need source on that video package.
For science, to erm...study further on survival in sand. Ahem.
Me too, there's a mud pool near by, I must be prepared.
@@remy5405 you dropped something 👑
Brean sands near Weston Super Mare is similar to Morecombe bay. 27 October 2002 a 5 year old girl drowned because she became trapped in sand and the tide came in fast. rescuers couldn’t get to her in time. They now have a hovercraft for rescuers and it has been used many times. There are countless vehicles under the sand.
Back in 1977, I got a job on a surveyor crew. We were surveying next to the Red River in Louisiana, and I had walked ahead and out of sight of the rest of the crew. I walked out on a sandy flat that looked dry, but unbeknownst to me, it was actually a dry crust over quicksand. Suddenly I broke through the crust and immediately sank up to my knees. After a few seconds of panic, I realized I could lean back and rest my back on the crust. I was then able to slowly work my legs out of the quicksand. I then spread my body out as much as possible, and crawled back to solid ground.
This man talks about sand for 15+ minutes and I'm still interested
Anakin Skywalker gives a thumb down, LoL
I am sure you all agree by now that Thoughty2's word play is the stuff of legends....
Just like colloidal milk. "LegenDairy" :D
true, on the other hand, his jokes could be read in a better way.. or rather acted out verbally instead of just read thru.. after all, half the joke IS the delivery.. lol
There was a clay quarry that me and my friends used to hang out at when we were young, some spots that looked solid would immediately start sinking when you stepped in it, normally it wasn't bad and we got out quick enough, but once my friend got sucked up to his waist and just kept sinking so I pushed a bunch of dry dirt and sand on to the area around him and me just going off the hope that it might give a solid spot to push against, and it actually worked. We never walked through that specific spot again.
How long is this dude going to be 42? He doesn’t age.
Isnt it weird this is not taught at schools?
But well, not even actual History is taught, so whatever.

He uses keeps on his body
I'm still wondering what he did with Thoughty1.

@@slevinchannel7589 yes it’s true, exactly how the greek history is stolen. It’s actually Albanian but they never had time to raise a writer to write down their doings. The greeks which were a very small country wrote down our history since they had time whilst we were always at war. Like even if people learn the truth that it’s stolen, no one will take action upon it, because the amount of time it will take to rewrite the ‘ Greek ‘ history into Albanian would be tremendous.
I always thought quicksand would be a much bigger problem than it is in my life.
I always knew it was BS when i was told about it as a kid. There is just about nothing that humans cannot either swim in or stand on.

Working pipeline maintenance you run into ditches that go down to the water table often and when it's in a river basin you run into quick sand all the time. If you happen to miss the pallets we toss in to stand on and sink up above your muck boots there is one trick that works everytime. If you're worried about running into it while adventuring take a hollow walking stick, tubing of some sort, and if you get stuck just slip it down to the bottom of your feet before trying to pull it out. The suction from pulling does the work for you by pulling the air down your makeshift straw and breaks all the suction pressure and you can come right on out. It works if someone is trying to pull you or an object out as well, I've always wanted muck boots with this concept incorporated into it by having a flexible vent straw that runs externally from the top of the boot to the bottom of the sole. Would have saved me a lot of hip and knee pains walking in muddy conditions
Yeah, I didn't hear a thing he said when he explained freeing yourself from quicksand thanks to the visual.
I'm a woman that is straight and I didn't hear a thing at that part. So much for retaining the tips.
@@violetdusk1968 Oh I was retaining a couple of tips alright.
@@violetdusk1968 Very strange, I'm a straight woman too who didn't hear a single thing during that part. Many things were going through my mind, "Oh, a sexy scene" "the dudes will be distracted by this" "unfortunate because this is the most important info in the whole video" "yeah, she's pretty" "She looks very familiar" "Kate moss perhaps?" "No, Claudia Schiffer?" "No, Gerogia May Jagger or Scarlett Johansson" "Oh, shit I missed that whole segment".

15:29 that's the funniest survival instructional ever.
I got stuck in quicksand hiking up a trail as a kid. It literally swallowed my entire leg, I thought I was going to die. It took both my brother and his friend over a half hour to pull me out of it. I ended up losing my shoe to it, but at least I was alive. There was no way to tell it was quicksand either. The ground was wet from a recent rain, and nothing about where I walked looked unusual at all.
That shoe will be fossilised in a museum a million years from now
I can't believe he didn't mention the most important trick to escaping from quicksand, taking off all your clothes.

"To escape the quicksand. Duh."

When I was a kid, I thought quicksand would be more of an issue than it really is.
I've seen that bit on comedy central. Boo
I once pulled a kid out of a river , who was paddling . He was sinking in quick sand .
Same.
Quicksand, the archenemy of feet, next to fungus and worst of all, Legos.

Poole Park 16:50 I've heard a version of that story before...
"When I first came here, this was all swamp. Everyone said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built in all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp. So I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So I built a third. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp. But the fourth one stayed up. And that's what you're going to get, Lad, the strongest castle in all of England."
The quicksand survival guide is excellent! I've watched it at least 10 times and will continue to rewatch it just in case!

BAHAHA I see what you did there
Not going to lie, I had to re-watch the methods of escaping quicksand because I was too distracted
After watching the video, I completely understand what you mean. It was hard to watch.
I was looking at the comments and I think that did the opposite of what I wanted
You better watch it a third time just to be sure. You wouldn't want to miss any details, your life depends on it.
@Juked Em its everyday bro (except not jake paul)
There was also a study some time ago that found there was a difference in the sand depending on the water source. If the water entered laterally there would be less or no suction. But if the water was flowing up through the sand vertically it was much more dangerous.
I absolutely love your channel, it gives me a real boost while I take care of my 96 year old dementia father. Your narrative always makes me laugh and is an absolute tonic for my bipolar depression. Thank you from the bottom of my heart - and please keep on with your information.

15:26 It was really hard to listen to what he said.
This guy made a 20 min video of a 'yes or no' question. *Respect!*
I saw a doco about quicksand and there was a couple on honeymoon in north England walking on a beach and the girl got stuck up to the knee on one leg and the tide started to rise (about 30 feet). Her husband was unable to help her and he had to leave her stuck and helpless. When the tide went back out again she was still there, stuck only by one leg and tragically deceased. Very sad.
Me 1 minute and half into the video : *ok that’s enough internet for today*

Once got caught in “quick mud” from a mud bog, had to call a friend to get me out, It was up to my upper chest
Wto skullman
When I was a boy, back in the '70s and '80s, I lived with my family on a small lake... While fishing the lake's edge I got caught in the "quick mud" a few times. My friends and I called it "muck". Took a while of squirming and twisting to finally crawl my way out. I was safe... but not so lucky for the loafers I was wearing on my feet! :-D One summer, the lake association lowered the level of the entire lake to allow property owners to manage our shorelines... At the depths of that lake were hundreds of square feet of that nasty muck! My friends and I kept getting our motorbikes stuck in the mess! :-O
Must have felt, I don't know, helpless? Acceptance? Annoyance? I would have felt grossed out that I was going to die this way. I have an enormous ego.
