In light of the incident in which a firefighter was rescued from an advancing wildfire by climbing into a water bucket under a helicopter and being flown to safety, I sent a Twitter message to @BambiBucketeer, the account of Bambi Bucket, a company that manufactures some of the more popular buckets. I asked them:

Will your next Bambi Bucket model include seat belts? 😉

Their reply was:

 and 7 airbags plus an extra-size cup-holder. Stay tuned for press release in 2013! 😉

Gotta have that cup holder!
