That is a beautiful, sinky little quicksand pit and I'm not sorry he wasn't a girl.

Nasty and grimy looking stuff. Given the choice of being sunbeaten to death, I'd choose to struggle until I went under and was snuffed out more quickly. (And hope my body didn't float back up.)

[Sir Muttley]

Reminds me of the gooey mud in the quicksand scene from the movie Ice Cold in Alex, I so wish I had such a pit in my backyard, as it would be a good workout and you could get fit and have fun at the same time, who needs a Nordic Trak!

That does look like fun stuff, although I would prefer stuff even thicker yet! He was able to get out too quickly! But, that stuff also has such a high density, that it would be difficult to go completely under, unless you were able to slide your body horizontally through the soft stuff beneath the stiffer upper layer, and hope your body still doesn't break through to the surface. Also it would be nice to have containers of water handy for cleanup, which would be the easiest if the sinking is done in the nude. Of course, you could also let the hot sun and air quickly dry the stuff on your skin, which can then be easily brushed off, although if it has clay, which he did mention that it contained, there would still be powdery clay residue on your skin.

I'm still upset not to find "Cold in Alex" on Netflix!
