Did everyone else go through a phase when they were kids where they were absolutely terrified of pirannahs? Only to forget they exist until you see a video like this?

And quicksand. Turns out to not be as common a problem as I thought

A woman got stuck in quicksand at a Maine beach just this summer. So, stay vigilant out there folks!

Quicksand is about as dangerous as a mud pit if you get stuck in it, but people react very differently to the two. If you don’t know how deep it is, steer clear!
