Quicksand Fans

Clip here:

Short scene - female is running through jungle, lands into a pile of dry sand and is pulled back into a sinkhole-style pit. Sinks to chest level, reaches out for branch. Clip ends there. Very short scene.

Not bad at all. I have a question regarding " Dry " quicksand . . . how does it work ? There's a scene in Lawrence Of Arabia where a man gets sucked into dry quicksand, but this is in the middle of a desert, with no water, so what makes it so deadly ?

Sounds pretty much like a myth.
Anyone has a REAL case?

Edit: Sinking in salt flats like the scene in Hidalgo does not count as "Dry"

Scenes like "Lawrence" often come from sand flowing into crevasses and such underneath . Not quite the same as sinking into dry grain in a silo.

This is an older scene, but still a great scene. Hits all the right buttons and the girl is absurdly cute.

I kinda found the actress' story to be interesting as a Google search reveals she was a member of a Thai idol group and also had a sex tape leak.

What I wouldn’t give to see a guy sinking in that very scene. Someone like Jensen Ackles or Jeremy Renner. One of my greatest hopes is that I get to see at least one Hemsworth brother in a quicksand scene before I die.

As it turns out, she's half German.

I have always been fascinated with Amerasian and Eurasian women. It's a pity that they are socially shunned in their own (Asian) countries - especially the Philippines and Vietnam. Maybe that's improving over time.
