Very nice double female dry quicksand scene. As these things go, not bad at all. Great find.

Indeed, that was quite a decent scene. Good drama and pacing, good editing with quick sinking moments to build up the tension and work around the dry sand set. Thank you for the find and cut.

Not a sand-fan ( ) of the dry type, but that was a good scene nonetheless. Thx.

Not a fan of "dry-sinking" here, too.
Still that one was technically well done and also with good acting and actresses.

Really nice find for a dry sinking!

Always puzzled me : How can you have quicksand in a desert ? It also appeared in " Lawrence Of Arabia " but since there's hardly any rain in these locations how does it form ?

I can not find this scene. Is there a different place to locate this scene?

Looks like not available?? Any other sources for this

"Dry" quicksand is really not quicksand, and sometimes involves regular sand flowing into an underground cavern or cavity, the flow started by the sand being disturbed by walking upon it.

Also, some smooth, large grains can act like silo wheat grain under the right conditions, unable to support much weight per square inch.
