It takes great strength to even pull your leg out of quicksand - if she fell down into this puddle and was flailing, the more she struggled to free herself, the worse she would be trapped. She was obviously entirely submerged.

I once sunk to my waist in just plain mud when I slid from a rock on my mountainbike, and it took two of us to pull me out - I could barely move. I'm pretty strong.
