I had a question here. As we most like have seen in TV shows and movies it is not unheard of for an actor/actress to do a several scenes where they are tied in more than one tv show/movie.
Has anyone ever seen an actor/actress that has done more than one quicksand scene? I mean other than the models in the videos.

Outside of the excellent products provided by Kaol, MPV, etc., I cannot recall seeing an actress (or actor) being in more than one sinking scene. In a way, that does make such a sinking scene more memorable. Examples I can come up with are Lisa Hartman in Bare Essentials, Lucy Arnez in The Mating Season, and Vera Miles in that one Tarzan scene. I'd like to see Lisa Hartman in more than one sinking scene, but I'm quite happy with the one that she did. :)

Jack Palance couldn't get enough of the "mushy bog" in Evil Stalks This House; I think he went in three times, twice unwillingly, and once to hide from the evil trucker. That was in one performance, though.

In the old Tarzan series, Ron Ely fell into quicksand several times. One was where he was still reeling from enduring deafening underwater grenade blasts. He fell and rolled into quicksand, but quickly pulled himself out (Deadly Silence). Another episode had him fall into quicksand and make his famous call to summon an elephant to help him out. Yet another episode had him endure a deadly cage full of perils, including quicksand, which he had to cross. So, that is 3 sinks by Ron Ely! :)

Would you believe I found atleast one answer to my question here.
Johnny Crawford obviously on The Rifleman (Old Tony episode) and I just saw a Rawhide episode called Crossing At White Feather aired in December of 1965 a couple years after he did Rifleman.
Hope wasn't out of line for mentioning The Rifleman episode because of the actress age.

He's not an actor, but Bear Grylls has demonstrated how to escape from quicksand (and similar stuff like peat bogs) on a number of occasions in his survival show.
