At least a fire can happen anywhere.

I also know not to struggle in quicksand and I'd be way more confused if that appeared in my daily routine.

Every other film had that horrendous scene of people drowning in unexpectedly appearing quicksand.

Although most victims blunder blindly into quicksand, it sometimes seems that the merest touch of an extremity is enough to pull the unwary into its muddy and all-consuming depths like iron filings to a magnet.

Quicksand trick also applies to falling in a grain silo, according to that one YouTube short I watched.
