History Main / DrumBathing

* ''CryBaby'' - when we meet Johnny Depp's "drape" family, patriarch [[Music/TheStooges Iggy Pop]] is bathing in a little metal tub in the yard - he cheerfully exclaims "Ya caught me in my birthday suit!"

* In ''Anime/DragonBallZ'', Goku commonly uses one as the default bathtub at his house. One notable moment is in the Tree of Might film when he bathes in it with Gohan.

* Used on site by the cops in Patlabor (2nd OVA series). Until an accident with their propane cylinder, which leads to them going to a public bath, where a mad bomber is hiding.

This setup is called a "Goemon-buro" (Goemon's Bath) in Japan, in (a somewhat morbid) reference to IshikawaGoemon and how he was executed by being boiled alive.

* Nanako bathes in a barrel at the end of the second episode of ''AmazingNurseNanako''.

When the character has to take a bath inside a barrel or small oil drum that is usually outdoors and heated over a fire underneath. This is typically seen in poor rural environments out in the country. Despite the bath being too small to fit more than one person, BathtubBonding still can occur, but it's guaranteed to get cramped, making at least one of the bathers uncomfortable. OutdoorBathPeeping is another thing that is generally guaranteed. This is the only time a bathtub can be outside without it being considered an AwkwardlyPlacedBathtub.
