    That grain was slippery, so it was like quick sand, and as your feet and legs started to sink , and you struggled against the grain. You were pulled down by gravity and you pushed the grain up. What he is saying is that there is a sinkhole in the bin, cause by the top grain is stuck together and teenagers work on the top breaking it up slid down into the void. Ropes from the top tied to the top of the bin, and a harness that has mountain climbers gear. That was sorghum and even the mental challenge brother knew that you don’t go in bins filled with sorghum.

    The most educational video I've I've is someone filming pigeons eating grain while it's being emptied and it is terrifying how quickly they sink and almost petrify and then dissappear

    Thanks for this explanation! Ever since my high school physics class on buoyancy where we learned that larger objects will float above smaller ones, I was confused about how it would be possible to drown in a silo. The air pocket makes a lot of sense. If the little figures are able to jostle about at all (which they aren't because of the weight of the grain) they could float to the top, but likely still have their legs stuck a bit thanks to gravity. Like your whole body will float in water, but are still submerged when you are upright in water.

    Surface tension allows even the heaviest weights to float as long as there is a sufficient square-foot-on-the-water-to-weight ratio... not sure how to phrase that so it's understandable. If anyone knows the actual formula...

    Grain bins will get what in the industry calls "crust" it happens if the grain gets wet and or moldy. The top surface maybe 3"-6" of the grain will be flat and look like the grain bin is completely full. Even though the grain auger has been outputting grain under the crust is a cavity that can be several feet of just empty space. The crust is almost always not strong enough to support a person. And when you break through it, it will completely engulf a person in about 1 second. In fact grain silo accidents have a 60% mortality rate.

    Farm kids work. So do the kids who make your shoes. The only kids who don't work is ones you can see in your city. You urbanites didn't want to see it so you exported the child labour somewhere else.
