Total immersion
Staying Cool in the Heat
I went out on the estuary yesterday to avoid the heat by getting wet and immersed in mud. Getting wet was pretty easy. Getting muddy was also effortless, but avoiding the biting flies turned out to be impossible unless I was completely immersed in the mud. I arrived before low tide so my first order … Continue reading
Extreme Self Bondage Swamp clip
This clip is NOT for everyone. I wasn’t sure if I was even going to publish it because the things I do are pretty dangerous, if you don’t take the right precautions. So, I suppose, I should say, “Don’t try this in your swamp”. The concept is pretty simple, although the execution requires some planning. … Continue reading
May 13-14 Vlog
On May 13, I went to the forest to explore some mud I discovered on a previous trip, but didn’t have a chance to really sink into it. It took me some romping around to find a really deep spot, but when I did, it turned out to be really deep. After exploring there, I … Continue reading

June 12 Trip Report
I got off to a late start, today. It was a work day, after all. I arrived at my sinking hole at 17:45 (5:45pm) and the tide was really low. I expected a low tide the day after a full moon, but I wasn’t sure about the exact timing. As it turned out, it was … Continue reading
That Sinking Feeling
Well, the future of my video production is uncertain. Things are going off the rails fast with a trashing of social safety nets and a build up of government surveillance. I guess the good news is that I have a quicksand video from last year that was rejected by C4S because the ending was terminal … Continue reading
