Real Water Falling Impact
by CraftedEgg
Real Water Falling Impact changes how landing in water affects a player, so water no longer cancels fall damage.
What it does
In vanilla Minecraft, landing in water grants full immunity to fall damage. This mod removes that immunity, so a fall into water can hurt the player depending on the height and speed of the impact. Real Water Falling Impact runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.20.1, with 1.2.4-fixed as the latest file, dated 2026-02-19.
Key features
Water no longer cancels falls
Landing in water is no longer a free escape, and high-velocity impacts can cause serious injury or death.
Impact-based damage
Damage is calculated from the speed and height of the fall, and the effect applies to players rather than other creatures.
Cliff and tower jumps
Jumping from cliffs, buildings or the End towers into a pool carries real risk, which adds stakes to exploration.
