[MC-218936] Fall Damage Cap

I was testing how high can you fall without dying by using Enchanted Golden Apples and Turtle Master Potions; it came to my attention that I was losing only 6 Absorption Hearts. I believe there is some sort of damage cap for fall damage. (I survived a fall from 100,000 blocks with full health and 2 absorption hearts left).
I took some pictures of me falling from 3000 blocks and losing only 6 absorption hearts.

I was able to recreate this in 21w10a, with Feather Falling IV Netherite boots, Potion of the Turtle master with Res. 6, Enchanted apples, and hay bales.

EDIT: tried again without Feather Falling, lost 6.5 absorption hearts like you said.

Maybe a duplicate of MC-216184.

Please provide some steps on how to go about reproducing this issue and what the expected behavior should be. Since this ticket could relate to MC-216184, are you still able to recreate this now that MC-216184 has been fixed?
