Q Talk

[Shawnie]

There is a post on Facebook advertsing Shawn and Rick's new show that shows Rick buried up to his head in sand at the beach.  There is another showing the process of burying him.  I am shocked that QVC would produce such an ad when it is so dangerous to do that---People die when the sand collapses and they can't get out.  QVC can't be that unaware or maybe they are.  To me it is irresponsible.

@Shawnie Sorry this ad seemed to upset you. But, being honest, many ads are not realistic and are not meant to be. This goes for commercials, TV shows, movies, many have "situations" that could be dangerous. We all must have common sense and know not to bury ourselves in the sand (pun intended).

It wouldn't be necessary to dig a hole 6ft deep.  They could have buried him sideways.  Chances are he wasn't buried at all but the picture was PhotoShopped.

@cjm61 @Yes, maybe not upset but certainly displeased that they would do this.  And unfortunately it is not enough to believe people know this is dangerous.  Folks see stuff that influencers do and want to copy it.  This is a killer.  QVC should pull it.

Nope they did it @Kachina624

  I live near VA beach and the outer Banks. A 17 year old died a few weeks ago from being burried. Sand crushes the lungs and collapsed them.
   Lifeguards tell people to dig holes no deeper than their knees. 
   The sea turtles hatch their eggs and holes that are left can kill them. Some areas don't allow it. 
           🏖️ 🕳️ NO!

    if he stopped breathing I wonder how fast she could dig him out?
