* ''Film/RobinHood2010'': Lady Marion Loxley does this when she tries to free a ram stuck in the quicksand-like mud on her own without help or safety measures by gathering her hair and tucking it down the back of her shirt and also gathering and hiking up her skirt so that her legs are bare to the thighs, then after she takes a hoe, Marion starts walking carefully toward the bog while testing the ground of the bog ahead of her for it's firmness before each step with a hoe while keeping her eyes mostly on the tricky grounds. But just as it seems that Marion will be able to rescue the ram from the mud, she suddenly gasps, loses her footing and falls into the mud, pinwheeling her arms to keep herself away from falling forward while making a loud splash after she falls in mud. Marion manages to right herself as her skirt starts trailing in the mud, but she only manages to get herself stuck in mud along with ram. Marion assures Robin and rest of the peasants near the bog that she is fine and that she does not need help to be rescued from being stuck in the mud as she holds one hand near the mud while raising one hand in the air to try to regain her balance and wave away peasants's concern for her. But when Marion tries to stand back up, the quicksand-like bottom had caught her and now holds her tight, causing Marion to sink low to her shoulders and to realize that she can't move her legs and that she now needs help to be rescued from being stuck in the mud as she is now helpless to do anything on her own. Leading to Robin going to rescue both Marion and ram. It turns out Lady Marion Loxley is not fine after all, and that she does need help to be rescued from being stuck in mud. Fortunately, Marion is not in any danger of sinking deeper into mud to her death while being stuck in mud, she's just too stuck to free herself and has a hard time getting out. And after Robin rescues ram from mud, he also rescues Marion from mud as well.
-->'''Lady Marion Loxley:''' "Stop! You'll break its neck." (Marion swings off her horse, quickly gathers her hair and tucks it down the back of her shirt and also gathers and hikes up her skirt to that her legs are bare to the thighs, takes a hoe staff one of the peasants gives her and starts walking carefully forward into the bog, while testing the ground of the bog ahead of her for it's firmness before each step with a hoe while keeping her eyes mostly on the tricky grounds).
-->'''Robin Longstride:''' "Marion." (Marion ignores him and keeps trying to make forward progress, Robin then also swings off his horse).
-->'''Lady Marion Loxley:''' "Easy." (And as Marion is slowly approaching ram that is stuck in the mud and testing the bottom in front of her, she suddenly gasps as the hoe staff she was holding suddenly plunges all the way in the mud, taking Marion with it. Marion loses her footing and starts falling into the mud. Marion pinwheels her arms to keep herself away from falling further and deeper into the mud. Eventually, Marion falls into the mud, getting herself stuck up to her shoulders in mud. Marion makes a rather big and loud splash of muddy water that gets her tucked dark-brown hair and hiked up clothes all wet and drenched up in muddy water after she falls and gets stuck in mud. Marion manages to right herself with her arms from which drops of muddy water start falling, keeping one hand above and near the mud while briefly raising her other hand from the mud, while her skirt starts trailing in the mud. But all Marion manages to do is to get herself stuck in mud along with ram).
