I like to hang 0.9% NS to gravity when possible because I always thought that the fluids would stop infusing if the IV site blows. A co-worker of mine disagrees and said that IV fluids hung to gravity would continue to flow and infiltrate if an IV site blows.
Quicksand and other non-Newtonian fluids share properties with both liquids and solids. Non-Newtonian fluids consist of tiny grains suspended in liquid, with the appearance of a solid or gel. Stand on quicksand and you will sink (though not as rapidly as movies and cartoons suggest). But strike it quickly and it will briefly harden.
