I've heard stories of heavy equipment dissapearing in mud overnight, never to be seen again but I was sceptical...

#2, my uncle used to own a slate company in Vermont. The factory was located in a slate quarry. There were a lot of area that had flooded when they hit a spring, sometime with water, other times with mud. In one of these, it caused a mudslide, and one of the backhoes was completely engulfed within minutes.
There was another one that was swallowed by water in a few minutes too. This all happened decades before, but the machines were still there. The one in the mud had part of the very upper arm visible, but that's all. The one underwater was visible but at least a few feet below the surface Scary to think about.

#3, Stuff I heard about was connected to drilling wells, I think. Everything seemed OK when workers left, when they got back in the morning, all they would find was sort of a shallow sand/mud crater.

Er, no, I think it was more along the lines of underground pockets of loose sand or mud or something.

#4, It probably depends on the type of are they're being used in. In quarries, in deep pits with a relatively small diameter, it could fill up almost all the way to the top in a matter of less than an hour. Anything there would ave to be abandoned or the people would drown trying to drive it out.
Now I miss that place. It was cool just wandering around, for some reason.
