I blame comics ๐Ÿ˜ There were often some quicksand as a plot helper. Tintin for example.

Cartoons as well. I was certainly led to believe quicksand was going to be something I'd need to deal with as an adult.

So far, after a couple of decades of "adulting", I'm so far at 0 quicksand incidents.

When they happen though, I'm ready.
