If caught in quicksand, experts advise that you do the following:

Real quicksand is a slurry of sand (dirt) in water,so if all else fails (a rope, a branch, friends) you should be able to swim out.But some guy got caught in a construction site (yes - they made their own quicksand ... for waste disposal purposes) and it took a score of guys plus water pumps to get him out.
Quicksand typically has a sinking rate of about 1-2 inches per second, but this can vary depending on the density and viscosity of the sand as well as the person's weight and movements. It is important to remain calm and try to float on the surface if caught in quicksand until help arrives.
To get past quicksand, try to spread your weight by lying flat on your back and gently moving towards firmer ground. Avoid making sudden movements or thrashing around, as this can cause you to sink further. Stay calm and slowly work your way out of the quicksand.
You can't run away from it once you've been caught, however you can avoid being caught in it by simply walking around the sides (do NOT run).
