waterfall method
The waterfall method is just what you imagine . You need to place a water source at the top of the place you want to reach , or from which you want to go down, taking into account that it is very important that the flow always be one block wide . In addition to that, calculate the place you will reach when you completely go down the area you want to ascend or descend, and make a hole about a block in size so that the water accumulates in it and does not disperse when you fall.
When you have your particular waterfall made, you can go down it by jumping, or even go up if you swim up . It’s that simple, although you have to take oxygen into account, since the character can drown. With a little care, you can move enough so that your head sticks out and you can breathe without getting out of the water , allowing you to go up or down without fear of suffocation. Also, if you are someone who is quite fast and want to continue having the water fountain after going down the place that interests you, you can quickly pick it up with the bucket and launch yourself down the waterfall . It takes a while to disappear, and it does so gradually, so it will give you time to go down without fear.
A very simple trick that can help you go down great heights without fear of damage from falling , but it will also help you get back up if you have already explored those depths that interested you so much. You just need a bucket with water and a rim to drop it on . That easy!
