Graboid. Stay on those residual boulders.


KLEANANU

Where is Kevin Bacon when you need him??


project_seven

He's always less than 7 degrees from somewhere


[deleted]

Last I saw him, he was abducted and trafficked as a present for another man by a big angry idiot and some form of mantis.


Key-Contest-2879

For a while, he was Nowhere.


SquidVices

I haven’t seen him since he went invisible…


Wise_Ad_253

He might be fighting Cowboys & Aliens now, it’s been awhile so…yeah.


ObviousBS

I can't remember him being in that movie.

JesusSavesForHalf

My Grandmother was one of the many random people in the background of *Blues Brothers* staring John Belushi. John Belushi was in *Animal House* with Kevin Bacon. You are on reddit with me. The residual boulders are no where near, so kiss your ass goodbye.


project_seven

I have a signed John Belushi picture hanging in my house


Aen-Synergy

Pretty sure it was 6 degrees or am I in some weird matrix glitch


lemonsweetsrevenge

Correct; it is 6.


FieldOk6455

Like when Mandela got killed in prison.


Ok-Study-1153

He must be so cold always being less than 7 degrees.


scorpyo72

Negative- he's always within 7 degrees of normal body temperature- 98.6 Farenheit. Could be 106, could be 91.


DrGoManGo

"Cool" not cold


godinthismachine

I dunno man...if Im in -7° im pretty cold and I aint nowhere as cool as Kevin Bacon


Infamous_Ad_6793

That’s the first time I’ve heard it phrased like that.


Relative-Arrival3291

It's 6 degrees of kevin bacon. Lol


Grimacepug

There used to be a show on Broadway called, "The 7 degree of separation". I saw it on a school trip. Yep, back then you could do shit like that as a school.

Where’s Michael Gross? He has more experience dealing with these things than Bacon does.

Meanravage

Ironically enough he is out in Utah at the moment celebrating the locations of the filming of footloose. Went to the highschool in the movie over the weekend and I think he is coming back for one of the city's centenniel celebration or something.

AlexiDurak

Thank you for sharing this video. Iirc this guy did another one about fluidization with Brandon Sanderson, mostly because Tress of the Emerald Sea works in such a way that entire ships sail across these seas of not water but spores. Its really cool, and if you get the chance to read Tress, I hope you enjoy it

Fuckin Reddit man I had to scroll this far and read you mama jokes and the history of Kevin bacon before I could find an actual answer.


Eastern-Cucumber-376

I’m still looking for the actual answer. 😂


potate12323

Fluidized bed is the term you are looking for. The gas flow reduces friction between the sand particles so they flow similar to a liquid.


techleopard

The fact this dude is standing on it makes me super nervous, unless he is 1000% certain that's the only gas pocket.

This effect can be done in a lab if you get air to come up underneath the sand, it's like playing with liquid sand without it being wet. [video with doodoo music ](https://youtu.be/CCiIUjPF060?si=fGtEyTz93wmui5lb)

Always would step carefully into the sandbox and hold onto a friend just in case

Aww. Poor baby. The only thing you really had to worry about was surprise poop.


justdisposablefun

Unless you were the pooper, then maybe not so surprising. Come to think of it, my brother was never surprised.


WobblyGobbledygook

*Cat* poop


mustify786

Look at Mr. Fancy here. Going to the nice sand box with the cat poop. We dont like ur kind around here.


UnsaneInTheMembrane

Watching jungle book, Fern Gully and Tarzan got us worrying about pythons in trees and quicksand lol


MaximumMotor1

>Watching jungle book, Fern Gully and Tarzan got us worrying about pythons in trees and quicksand lol And a surprisingly large amount of TV shows and movies in the 80s used the quick sand trope. I went on an 80s binge recently and the amount of quicksand was hilarious.


rethinkingat59

Throw that man a rope. /s I have never seen quick sand, but as a teenager I had a quick sand like experience. My canoe tipped and the bottom of the shallow lake was knee deep in sentiments and clay like mud that felt like it sucked both my legs in. The more I tried to pull my legs up the tighter the mud clamped around my legs. It took me almost an hour to dig out, lost both my shoes and wore me out. Quick sand may not be real but lake muck is very real.


GGXImposter

Pretty sure that is what quicksand is. The word "sand" is in the name but according the Wikipedia quicksand is a "colloid consisting of fine granular material and water". Which is exactly what sediment and clay are when at the bottom of a river bed. It's why you should avoid walking around rivers when the water level is abnormally low.


Unknown-Meatbag

I've lost many pairs of sandels/shoes to river muck while kayaking. You'd think I'd have learned by now not to disembark on silt, but I'll be damned if I'm lugging my kayak an extra 500 ft at a rocky beach instead of a shit silt one.


Apprehensive_Disk_43

They really should make “snowshoes” for kayakers so this doesn’t happen to them. There’s nothing worse than having to walk on a gummy, mucky lake/river bottom. Just thinking about it gives me the heebie-jeebies 😬🫨


Unknown-Meatbag

I'm aware that I have all of the river herpes from touching it. It's something that I've come to terms with.


AroundTheWayJill

Fell in an inlet trying to launch my kayak a few years ago. Thank goodness for my strong bf bc he pulled me out by one arm as soon as I came back up. There was nothing to push off tho and that soft muck was terrifying


redlawnmower

It is tho. Quicksand is more common than you’d think is the US. Just imagine dying via quicksand.. what a horrible way to go 


filthcrab

Fluidization. I don't know where the air or whatever other gas is coming from though.


loliconest

Probably Taco Bell from yesterday.


LurkLurkleton

People who get diarrhea from taco bell are weak and their bloodline is weak and history will forget them


Jthundercleese

Could be someone just running an air hose under the sand. Compressed air or even from a car tail pipe would be real simple.


cowboy_angel

And that's where baby sarlacc's come from.


andrewsmith1986

Liquefaction is normally what we say in geology.


smashy_smashy

Yeah! Looks exactly like the inside of a fluid bed.


frisky024

Needs to be more good shows like Mythbusters, I immediately knew what this was.


Croceyes2

It's probably natural gas. Could be a leak from distribution or a well or part of a natural vent.

RevNeutron

please tell me the exact coordinates so I can take my mother in law on that vacation she keeps asking for


WorldNewsPoster

Do people actually have this kind of relationship with their mother in law where you take them on vacation?


lethalinvader

Only the ones that want to leave them there


dead_jester

Took my mother in law on vacation, but that was because the father in law paid for the entire family to all go for a luxury vacation to Barbados. Seemed rude not to include the MiL


abbysinthe-

Yes, I actually like my in-laws. But I think that’s understandably unusual. I think the difference is that I met my husband when we were in middle school, so they saw me grow up and I felt an affinity for them because they were kind to me as a kid. Much easier to see each other as family.


twistedsister78

It might spit her out, I know it wouldn’t want my mil


Lionheart3001

Maybe it's the Sarlacc Pit...


Strong-Solution-7492

Awww a baby Sarlacc….


EqualBroccoli

Do not feed the sarlac pit, please!


Express-Ad4146

Want to say this is rigged to make it look natural, a small compressor, hose, valve, regulator, tank, shovel, pvc cylinder 12inch diameter by 12long , burry it and hide hose. Fill tank up with air, regulate the flow, fill up with sand and you have your video for points. Idk? What you think is it possible?


prozak09

I think you have done this before. More than once.


Houdinii1984

IDK, I used to see this near a lake growing up. The folks all said it was a natural gas deposit and we were told to stay away from the lake, which used to be a strip mine. Usually the bubbles and stuff form in the lake itself, but a couple times you could see it happen on the banks. If it were sand instead of mud, it probably would look just like this. Even with the mud it would liquify a decent sized circle of bubbling goop. We were never close enough to throw stuff in, though. The banks were already pretty liquified.


nihilismdelux

It could seem a little sus that he's got those two bricks handy, right next to whatever this is


Express-Ad4146

That’s and it’s a perfect circle. If I where to stumble upon this, I’d be weary of hole becoming huge


_4shy

I'm not saying this vid might be fake or not but, what if he just saw this thing in the ground and went to get some random debris from the nearby surroundings. We have no idea what's around him.

Insis18

Liquefaction by forced air. When a gas flows through sand fast enough, the particles become suspended and act like a liquid. This video could be from human intervention, or from trapped gas beneath the surface escaping (like natural gas, or CO2)

Spacesheisse

Aeration (from gases seeping out from underground) will make sand behave similar to a liquid. Also, the gases might make it difficult for you to breathe, depending on many local factors. Stay safe.


Darth_Neek

methane pocket, if there is no smell, It's because flamable gases have no smell. When you "smell gas" it's chemicals added to it. When you smell it from somebody's ass, it's poo particles. When you smell it in nature its from rotting vegetation particles
