Types on how to survive in a Quicksand?
To survive in quicksand, try to stay calm and avoid making sudden movements. Slowly spread out your weight by lying down on your back and using your arms to float. Once you are floating, carefully and slowly move towards solid ground. Call for help if needed.
Is it true that quicksand sucks you down in seconds?
No, It Is A Long Thought (yet still thought today) Myth That Is Only Featured In Adventure Films. Answer: No. False Myth. In Fact, Quicksand Cannot Suck Your Whole Body Down.
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.
Can quicksand suck you down?
Yes it can but not the whole body. Quicksand is more boyant in quicksand than in water. You will be stuck but your whole body will not be sucked down

Is it faster to run through quicksand or walk?
Neither, because you want to lay down on your back and it is impossable to sink in quicksand. But from walking or running your would walk.
Why do you not sink in quicksand if you lay on your back and lift your legs slowly?
The common myth about quicksand is that it sucks you down. It you struggle then you will sink because your body movements actually dig deeper into the muck. Quicksand is highly saturated sand or silt or mud where water has not evaporated or leached out. If sand or dirt particles won't sink then neither will you so long as you stay calm and allow yourself to float to the top. If it is very muddy then when you struggle you may create a suction in the mix that has to be broken before you can come out. If your leg is stuck because of suction, you need to take something (walking stick, branch, piece of hose) and push it down along your leg to break the suction. A piece of hose is ideal because it lets air in around your trapped leg to break the suction. Best rule: don't go hiking alone.

How hurricanes breakdown?
They get breaked down slowly and slowly until its starts to calm down.
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.
