A British man abroad was nearly swallowed by quicksand in an eight foot hole he dug himself—which took three hours to be rescued from.
Jensen Sturgeon, 22, was trying to dig into the sand as deep as he could but he eventually struck water and the hole quickly collapsed around him.
It soon turned into a quicksand trap that caused his legs to sink and become stuck, when he 'thought I was going to die'.
The young was seen swallowed by the sand eight feet below which covered most of his body.
It took a team of tourists, vendors and lifeguards who spent more than three hours trying to save him, according to witnesses.
