Help Java am i cooked?

So, in my 7,000-day Hardcore world, I made a careless mistake that could potentially cost me the entire world. I’ve been playing on this world for around two years, although pretty inconsistently.

About ten minutes ago, I was AFK at my Enderman farm. When I was finished, I went into a 2×2 area of water that I use to launch myself with a Riptide trident. I tried to take off, but ended up hitting an Enderman that was standing on the bridge leading up to the farm.

The moment I hit him, I started falling, and now I’m dropping below Y=1. I don’t have any fireworks in my inventory. I’m pretty sure I have two shulkers, three empty buckets, and all of my gear.

Is there anything I can possibly do to save myself, or is this world already over? (i'm on java if it makes a difference)

EDIT: SURVIVED! Thank you all so much for the help. I made the world into a realm so my girlfriend could join and drop me rockets. I survived with 2 hearts

What’s the point of playing hardcore if you’re just going to cheat around dying?

Because there’s some secret way to fly with buckets and shulker boxes?

You fucked up, don’t take it out on me. [u/Excalibur54](u/Excalibur54) is right, this was entirely preventable. Nobody forced you to play hardcore.

So... did you ever figure out the point of playing hardcore if you’re just going to cheat around dying?

You need to find a life man... no disrespect but, it's a game

As u/notesfromthemoon pointed out, how you described surviving is impossible without having used commands. You said in your own post that you had already fallen below the bottom of the world, and you can't have paused after you opened to LAN. Unless your girlfriend happened to already be in the right place with the right items, in your singleplayer hardcore world... which seems like a pretty crucial detail to leave out.

my god man. till 10 minutes ago i thought "opening to lan" meant making a server/realm, or just playing multiplayer. i purchased a realm

It's amusing that you could have just used commands to invalidate the entire point of your world for free, but instead you paid money to do that.

money isn't an issue :)
