DIY Randomizer?

Hey all - I have an idea for a scenario "What's your fate?" but will need to rig something and am not sure how.
Idea is person is trapped (in their favorite way) beneath two buckets. Each bucket has a key. One has nice pleasant room-temp water. The other has something really gross/smelly/cold/ice etc. To make it work I would need a way for one bucket to spill before the other but for the self tie-y to not now know which it would be so they would have to wait in suspense, not knowing what their fate will be.
Has anyone tried something like this? If I rigged two ice drops of some sort I would need to adjust the amount of ice to the densities in each liquid so that which would melt first would not be known . . .
Would be open to any ideas on how to rig this. Given water is involved that would make electric / computer solutions inadvisable
