Inflatable airbags!! Do it the NASA way!

I would use this memory foam stuff that NASA created way back whenever. Also if you could get your hands on a goose down pillow that would probaby work really well. A parachute would be really cool, but if you can't attach anything to the egg then it's not possible.
