If everything you learned about quicksand came from watching movies, then you're dangerously misinformed. If you step into quicksand in real life, you don't sink until you drown.

A giant wooden sculpture of a roaring lion now stands proudly in a Central Chinese city square, and the journey it took to get there makes it all the more spectacular.The Oriental Lion, as it has been dubbed, was carved from a single redwood tree trunk over the span of 3 years. Established Chinese architect Dengding Rui Yao, reportedly assisted by over 20 people, initiated the project in Myanmar, where the carving was seen through. Finally, when the great beast was finished in December of 2015, it was transported over 3000 miles to reach Wuhan’s Fortune Plaza Times Square.

For some customers, it seemed to be business as usual but for others, it was a bit surprising and awkward. “Since we are located in a relatively upscale area and have a permanent customer base, the management doesn’t really have any issues with hiring female employees,” said Saeeb, the manager of the petrol station.
