Don't more 11 month old children die from bucket accidents than from gun shot wounds?

I'm sure I heard that somewhere.

Many drown in bathtubs when left unattended. Many more than have ever been shot.

Actually, one should be careful with 5-gallon buckets with toddlers around. The baby can go head-first into the bucket, and they can't get out. I would not have believed it if I had not seen my toddler go into a bucket half full of sand. One minute she was pulling herself up, and the next all I could see was shoes! I pulled her up by her feet, and we had a good laugh...

Yeah, but the drown in the bucket, just like they are more likelly to drown in a toilet then shoot themselves, unless you're keeping a hand gun beside the toilet...
