Line 86:
* Played straight in the ''[[Spy vs. Spy]]'' video game, where you could set up a bucket of something deadly (appears to be electrified water, complete with [[X-Ray Sparks]]) for your opponent...but if you forget which entrance it is in, you'd kill yourself.
* The "Tool Use" skill in ''[[Avernum]]'' is illustrated with a picture of an unfortunate individual about to spring a trap of this nature. The bucket is labeled "acid." (''Avernum'' does not take itself particularly seriously.)
* ''[[Dwarf Fortress]]'' - not that it had no better traps, but a closed door blocks vertical movement too, thus if floor on the level above it is channeled out and something is dumped into the hole (buckets and other containers won't spill contents, but [[Hammerspace|an arbitrary number of]] anvils or e.g. pouring some ''[[Lava_Adds_Awesome|magma]]'' works), it won't fall until the door is opened or broken.

** [[Hilarity Ensues]] when [[Troll|Kanaya]] [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004600 sees it], as buckets are involved in the Trolls' [[Bizarre Alien Reproduction]], and Trolls thus find them obscene.
