Fact :
A mix of sand and water, quicksand appears solid until something (like a heavy
DINOSAUR) steps on it. At this point the quicksand becomes more liquid
temporarily as the extra weight turns the area into a soupy mix. However, once
the water and sand are given time to rest again the mixture solidifies, trapping
whatever may have stepped in it.
This is why some old quicksand sites did become "quicksand traps". As many
DINOSAURS got caught into them and could not escape. They left, after
millions of years, fossilised DINOSAUR skeletons for us to discover
today..
