Kiss one another Die for each other... we're cool for the summer yahh~~~ (demi lovato's song) 😆

ngl this kid actually has great technique and isn't panicking at all, you never wanna stand or make lots of unnecessary movement (like flailing your arms) in quick sand because liquefaction loves that sheet, your best chance of getting out is by increasing your surface area (like a boat) by dragging your feet while spreading your hands out like webbed feet as you walk with your hands out of the quicksand. never do the earthworm since that wont help you xD

Plot twist : And that's how I met your mother

That was my reaction....save them shoes, darn things cost money!!

Maybe it’s a mental thing so you chase your shoes as your gaining ground

I'm pretty sure it's not common at all to die from quick sand probably told him to watch out he didnt listen and was teaching him. Lesson but the kid wasn't in that much danger and I'm sure they would have jumped in if it got to bad. Maybe I just think that way because I've played in quicksand before

they?

@@_knightOfficial him?? Idk lmao wtf you want from me dog

The longer he stays, the more he might sink. Good idea to say~ "Hey, come on, aka keep going"!!! Plus, they probably don't want to get in unless it's absolutely necessary.

Hahahahaha come on quit messin around

That exactly how it feels. I hear you. But it is possible to get out always remember that.

You can get out though, so they're right for encouraging you. Good friends x

Not really, situation was under control, if he stopped it would have gotten worse. Best thing he did was remain available if worst came to worse. If he was by himself how do you think it would go then? Kid learned a life lesson and you are getting frustrated, get off your phone if it makes you feel this way

I dont think the sand was deep cuz here two girls actually died from it and the scary part that they both died one after another so yeah

It would be more frustrating if he was yelling the whole time

Exactly, now the son knows what to do whenever he finds himself in this situation by himself. I'm actually impressed he didn't panic.

That's a pretty dumb blanket statement. Almost like no parent has ever exploited their kids for views, or worst. All you gotta do is search up kids killed by their parents to know not every parent actually cares about their kids safety. That said, I get your sentiment.

Say the same thing when their dad's going to get milk

Doesn't mean he isn't in danger. They're not all dad of the year.

There is no explaining it to these people. This vid represents around 60 seconds of several hrs swimming and playing in a west Tennessee clay mine. And yet some how these people know more about what happened in the vid than my son and I do. Its just your garden variety quicksand and the factual and scientific definition and explanation can be easily found for those of us who don't just make shit up in our heads and present it as fact in a comment section of some random video. Driving to work is dangerous, playing in west Tennessee quicksand is not. Fuckin duh.

@@morganman1975 Before I watched your video, I just read the title and thought, " Quicksand is actually fun". Even though I had never experienced it before. I am happy I was right!

Add a bit more water to that sand and if its deep enough he's going under, there are plenty of examples on KZhead of quick sand and its consistency, especially some beaches here in the uk....

Most of the ones I read seemed to be joking. Couple of fools of course actually thinking the kid is dying.

@@morganman1975 there is people who tried this and died in a tutorial and its really scary to see also how your son disrupted his way of moving and j can see right away he almost loses everything he had gained to get on top its stil nothing to mess around with not as in advice to you but in general as i said multiple people have tried this and also thought i can do this and had to trade of their life thinking by that and those where adults can u imagine a child being in it with no parent leadership around it ? Most wil panick and suffocate.

Never thought I'd hear that when being yelled to a kid

You offer help even to those who fall down. This kid is literally struggling and in panic and the guy just stood there and pressuring him to get out. What a idiot.

If your alone you could become exhausted and not have the strength to get out. It can be deadly. Obviously this clip is fine because it's a small area of sand in a busy area and they are just having fun.

Quit messing around dude

Not possible, quicksand is too dense. That scene in Blazing Saddles is about how quicksand goes down.

😂

@@henrys3138 thousands of ancient human remains have been unearthed from quick sand excavations, what are you talking about

@@user-kp6ud7ht4z Bogs and tar pits probably, something else was at play if otherwise. One search and you can find the debunks on quicksand danger by more qualified people than me to discuss it.

@@user-kp6ud7ht4z chances are those bones excavated were mainly from the lower body like feet, leg bones, or hips. Sand is denser than the human body, and by that I mean not just your bones, but also your skin, muscles, organs, and natural bodily fluids, AKA water. When all the meat rots away, the water evaporates and the ligaments on the bones disintegrate, then and only then can bones of an *upper body* get buried. Regarding that burial, it likely happened over time through repeated floods. You can't sink all the way up to your head if you're not a disembodied skeleton though, in vivo the sand will keep you encased like cement and stop around your waist or your chest if you're somehow still struggling and not exhausted. This is due to quicksand's properties as a non-newtonian fluid, when an object of low surface area applies pressure on the otherwise solid sand surface, it displaces the particles and water fills the area where pressure is applied. However, as the remaining sand is compressed down, the particles fill the space back up again and start behaving like a solid, which is how you get stuck. If you've ever been swimming at the beach then the sand under your feet in the water is hard, and it's like that in quicksand too but there's a layer of sand still suspended in the water around your legs. If you know what to do, you'd gradually wiggle out and either float on your back or bear crawl, in both cases increasing your surface area. If you don't know what you're doing then you'll die not from going under, but from exposure to the elements, landslides, flash floods, predators, or dehydration. Your upper body will still be visible and you will see the land around you before you die. Regarding this video: this kid while his form isn't perfect is still crawling out of the sand how you're supposed to. Chances are he was never going to get stuck and the guy recording would never have uploaded this if he knew this kid was in serious danger. Ultimately quicksand is actually very slow and is most dangerous if you freak out or you know another flood is coming. If you don't think that's true look it up for yourself, they tested it on myth busters.

It’s good exercise

Bruh

He’s panicking but doesn’t want to show it to the kid

I mean, we don't know if the kid was given the instructions for how to maneuver himself out the quicksand prior to the video; but if he wasn't, then he's *very lucky* to have figured it out himself. The kid looks like he knows what he's doing and is doing it correctly for the most part.

@Love moonlight you can’t die from quicksand unless you sink idiot

*Dad falls into quicksand* Dad: Son, grab a strong, long stick and help me get out of this quicksand. Kid: No. It builds character. Dad: GRAB A STICK AND HELP ME NOW!!!!!! 😅😅

@@tamashford1 and what does quick sand do?

@@tamashford1 well the fact is that do the density it's impossible to completely be swallowed by quicksand. People that know this and how to move their body can escape. That's what this video was about showing that even a child can get out of quicksand and that it's not as bad as people think if they are educated. Whenever you hear about somebody dying from quicksand; it's not because they got swallowed. It's because without proper knowledge of how to get out; you can be stuck indefinitely. If this happens in a remote area and you are alone, you can die of exposure, or drowning if it's in a tidal area. So before calling somebody an idiot, check the statement that you are saying they're an idiot on. You don't die from quicksand by sinking. You die from getting stuck and not being able to have someone around to help you out of it if you don't have the education of what to do when you encounter it. The density will never let you sink above your chest contrary to what movies depict

It's that same smartphone that allows you to so easily gain the knowledge of what quicksand actually is, where its found, and how dangerous or not that it is. Like most things that interest me in this world, I had read about quicksand before ever encountering it for the 1st time in the wild. No telling how much of the stuff we've messed around in before this video but this was the best example I've seen and no more dangerous than any previous. People are quick to comment on the video without having a shred of knowledge or experience with it. Just plain ignorance. Rampant and acute ignorance.

@@morganman1975 I'd just use my pants to try pull someone out, regardless of how dangerous or otherwise it is. Don't know much on quick sand, just that land masses slowly eating people is not beneficial to anyone.
