A group of hikers encountering quicksand on the banks of the Paria River, Utah Quicksand warning sign near Lower King Bridge, Western Australia. Quicksand is a shear thinning non-Newtonian fluid: when undisturbed, it often appears to be solid ("gel" form), but a less than 1% change in the stress on the quicksand will cause a sudden decrease in its viscosity ("sol" form).
"Quicksand" was built around a similar gospel-inspired delivery of the Martha and the Vandellas' breakout hit "Heat Wave", but with a slightly slower tempo and a harder edge. Like "Heat Wave", it features an analogy to a natural phenomenon, with the narrator comparing falling in love to sinking in quicksand . [ 1 ]

PHIPPSBURG, Maine (AP) — A Maine woman enjoying a walk on a popular beach learned that quicksand doesn't just happen in Hollywood movies in jungles or rainforests. Jamie Acord was walking at the water's edge at Popham Beach State Park over the weekend when she sunk to her hips in a split second, letting out a stunned scream.
The claim that quicksand doesn't kill is nonsense - It is rare for someone to literally drown in quicksand, in the way seen in movies, but quicksand will tend to hold a victim hard and fast - which is a problem somewhere like Morecambe because quicksand is most active on coastal estuaries where rivers flow into the sea.
"Killer quicksand", like in the movies (i.e., quicksand that slowly sucks any person or animal unlucky enough to fall into it under), really exists. Busted Quicksand is denser than water; the greater the density of the liquid, the greater the buoyancy of objects within.
