Bits and pieces have been falling out of
the sky in California for generations due

aviation activities.....

At least it wasn't a whole aircraft

At least it was only a bucket. It tends to be bodies at Heathrow.

I doubt the "plunges to death" bit.

Death would have occured long before the u/c doors opened, not when the body hit the ground.
