My husband and I have had the “quicksand fear” discussion many times and neither one of us know where it came from either. We were both born in the mid-late ’70s, me in New York, later moving to Wisconsin, and he in Minnesota. As Carrie said, we didn’t know anyone who ever got stuck in quicksand, and I’m fairly certain that the chance of anything happening in the midwest to cause a quicksand situation is slim-to-none. However, we did come across this podcast, which gave us a little insight on where this seemingly universal fear may have come from: http://www.radiolab.org/story/quicksand/

The resulting tidal wave hit Port Alberni,which you passed on your way to Tofino. Although I lived in Vancouver, and was old enough to know better, I too was imprinted with a fear of tidal waves. http://www.canadiangeographic.ca/tsunami/tsunami_cg1989.asp

Mine came after watching an episode of Dukes of Hazzard where the ‘bad guy’ gets trapped in a bunch of it. (Thanks Bo and Luke!) Children are crazy impressionable, aren’t they?

It should be added that I live in MInnesota and as an adult I have never even heard of anyone I know actually running into a quicksand situation. However, don’t think that this even comes close to changing my view or calming my fear.

We won’t even discuss the day my big sister made me watch “Pirhana” while we were vacationing at our lake home!!!
