That and quick sand turned out to be significantly less of a problem than my seven-year-old mind had anticipated.
I saw this Documentary, The Princess Bride, where they went to the Fire Swamps. Was really oversold to me as a kid.
What about the R.O.U.S.?
Rodents Of Unusual Size ? I don’t believe they exist.
Ever been to New York?
It was in every movie in the 80s. You were eating a pizza in New York? Quicksand would appear under your feet!

Yeah what’s up with that btw? Into the bermuda triangle rabbit hole i go…
TLDR: the Bermuda Triangle isn’t particularly dangerous in any way, it just has a lot of ships that go through it.
I watched adoku about it that said that in the 80s someone wrote a book about it which proliferated many false claims about the triangle (they were debunked later on) apparently this boosted the notoriety of the myth even more.
I was a simpler kid. I just thought that the sun was going to just disappear and we wouldn’t notice for 8 minutes.

Nah, I was worried elevators might go higher as intended, smash through the roof and abduct me.
