Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that a person can be completely submerged in quicksand, as depicted in fiction?

No. Three reference sources state that a person cannot be completely submerged in quicksand, because quicksand is denser than the human body; the fictional depiction of sinking under is described as impossible.
