If your client is late to load water, as many clients are, it will determine your fall as if the water wasn't there - as if you jumped directly into the floor - and apply falling damage accordingly (probably killing you).

The 'punt' from Winterspring to Caer Darrow I usually fatal to me for that reason. It is also rather problematic to be taking the teleport into middle of the Maraudon for the same reason. Death by the time my client finishes loading all the data including that there was supposed to be water underneath me when I got there.
