I heard her making a comment about the episode of "1000 Ways To Die" with the mud wrestling pit that was built over top of a sinkhole that collapsed, drowning one female (saw that one), and another episode of "1000 Ways To Die" where someone tried role-playing, burying himself in sand and suffocating (didn't see that one).
I sink, therefore I WAM!!!!

Even though there's no quicksand in the latest Tomb Raider games, I found a little video of a glitch in one of these games that looked like Lara was in trapped in deep mud or quicksand - if only for a few seconds:

Enjoy.

I'm sure that a number of you probably heard of this from TVTropes, but such things need to be seen to be believed.

UPDATE (03/03/16): It has come to my attention, after going over the game, that there are also patches of cave muck as obstacles, which may or may not be poisonous. You may refer to the link, which has been updated.

Also, here's a treat for each of you: A collection of clips from Crackle Cradle Plus, where the girls with some changes to their outfits struggle and sink in quicksand.



Dammit with these links being deleted. :x

I think it too has been taken down...

but also I wonder if you have have Bloom also traverse the mud while wearing more outfits?

such as the hoverbike outfit or this outfit: http://winx.wikia.com/wiki/File:Bloom-S ... Formal.jpg

Although it's not an actual video game, its a "Choose your own Adventure book" based on The Legend of Zelda video game Series.

The Crystal Trap

One of the scenarios involves Zelda trying to traverse in mud...

The newest Shantae game, Half-Genie Hero, is now out and it has quicksand in the desert level Tassel Town. Sadly, there aren't any secrets under the surface of any of the pits...but at the very least, you can have Shantae dance while she sinks.

The 3rd level of Miracle Ropit's Adventure in 2100 for the NES has a couple of nonlethal quicksand pits that are hidden from plain sight, where escaping can be done through mashing the jump button upon being submerged.

Spy vs. Spy II: The Island Caper has a couple of quicksand pits as one of many field-based traps. In the NES version, the spy who falls in helplessly struggles even after losing all of his stamina. Here, stamina is reduced while staying in the quicksand. Other versions (C64 footage) have a gravestone emerge from the quicksand after all stamina is lost. The difference from the NES version is that stamina is reduced when struggling out of the mire.

Could you maybe make some vids of the quicksand in the Shantae games?
