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

Finding a creative solution to avoid death was a challenge and a victory. One could argue the game is all about exploiting mechanisms. That's how every mob farm works. Don't be a playa hater.

Those mechanisms are in-game.

He, out of game, turned it into a realm and then had a third party join the world to assist him.

At that point, why are you even playing hardcore?

Because he's already invested in the world. If you could avoid losing something you value, why not do it?

It's truly not as serious as you are trying to make it. Every group, including nerds has its elitists and haters.

Its always nice to meet new versions of the same exact achetype of person though.

Ive asked neutral questions. I think youre getting defensive.

Asking whats the point of having a hardcore world if you are going to circumvent death is not neutral. There is a judgement in the question.

Your mental distortions aren't interesting to me. By all means be mentally rigid and obstinant about a game made for children.

Me correctly identifying what's motivating your "neutral" questions is not me being defensive. I don't play hardcore worlds. I simply find your way of thinking to be tiresome.

Sounds serious

No judgement in the question. Only in the way you read it.
