Honestly as a kid I thought that quicksand would be a way bigger problem in life considering how many TV shows and movies I saw that used it.
But basically, what is it, how is it formed, how common is it, that kind of stuff. I live on the US East coast so (to my knowledge) I’ve never encountered it

You’ve probably have had a shoe/ boot ripped off with walking in dense mud, basically that but deeper. Wet sand. But unless you but some effort into it you aren’t going to get sucked in to the point where you drown, I guess you could get pretty stuck and sit there until you die, but when’s the last time you’ve actually heard of a quicksand death? I imagine you’d get out.
Is quicksand fear still a thing, that and the Bermuda triangle were two things to be feared, but I can’t say I’ve noticed them in popular culture, or whatever recently.
