What happens when you're under quicksand?
The quicksand slowly pulls you down or as in other says it eats you slowly...but thats just a myth
Can you walk on quicksand?
I wouldn't recommend trying it, by definition. If you become trapped in quicksand the recommended action is to lie down as you will then float and it's supposedly possible to swim slowly out. Quicksand is just a sand / water mixture that may have an apparently firm surface.
Is quicksand solid or liquid?
A quicksand is solid.
How long does it take to sink in quicksand?
You don't sink below the surface of quicksand. You sink down to a certain point depending on the density of the quicksand and get stuck there, unable to get out because you can't get the traction to move. After that, if there is no one there to help you out you die of thirst. Or if you are in coastal areas affected by tide, you drown. Or the crabs start to eat you alive. But whatever happens you don't sink all the way because quicksand is heavier then you are.
What is the bearing capacity of quicksand?
Zero, since the quicksand can not take any load.

Is there quick sand in Colorado?
There is quicksand wherever water and loose soil meet, so it is important to understand what quicksand is, first of all. Anytime that sand, gravel or muddy deposits become saturated with water, the result is a very thick concoction that can suck down any weighted objects that come to rest on it. Incidentally, quicksand is not always sand, as it can be anything with enough water in it, even the claylike soil at the foot of a riverbed. So, to directly answer your question, yes - quicksand can be found in Colorado, but only in areas where it is not tundraic or cold, and more humid and temeperate.
Do you die in quicksand?
Yes you would because the sand would suck you in until you can no longer reach the surface. Therefore you wouldn't be able to breath
