I had been avoiding this thread like the plague... but now that things are more jovial..
I actually am impressed with the idea of a pot bending versus breaking when the instrument takes a fall. I'm even more impressed that it's mounted in such a way that you can bend it back into place (possibly more than once!) without anything snapping.
But if additional safety features are sought, maybe a mercury tilt switch that can be activated when you're putting the instrument down. When the bass then falls, the mercury tilt switch activates, which could then deploy the airbags/toilet seat cushion or maybe just spray a big pile of shaving cream to break the fall.
Then again, how about if Dudley just designs a nice codpiece for the Bongo? That way it can't fall completely over..

I think BMW should have strapped Bongos on the front of this to test them out first....

I think the air bag idea is especially great for those who take the stage after a few too many trips to the bar!

Is that from Reggie and the Full Effect? Maybe they got it from a movie/show?

It's from Janet Jackson's song "Nasty" -- I loved the video. Does anyone remember the pyramid dogpile that they did? Didn't they then collapse it?? What a move!!! The 80's were rad.
I'm not a big Janet fan, although my band does a pretty sweet version of Black Cat. Can you excuse me for my ignorance being that I was born in 1980?

What's that old scripture..."Don't judge others, or you might get judged yourself."
