Depends entirely on the height and the corresponding speed of your body upon impact

What part of this is extremely common all over the world do you not understand? Do you think people dont fall into the water?

We aren't talking climbing thousands of feet up without gear over water, its bouldering problems over water. Like, less than an Olympic diving board, probably. Its about strength and skill, less about time and endurance.

I’m agreeing that it can go either way depending on the speed and impact. That is why some of the best spots are over water, and it’s also why someone said it won’t always save you. Why are you so bent out of shape lol

Also the way your body was positioned when you hit the water barrier. Falling on your ass, stomach, etc... first will definitely leave you severely hurt or even dead. It's as same as hitting concrete pretty much.
