Being shot by a skeleton or drowned with a trident causes the projectile to repeatedly bounce on the shield until the shield breaks or player stops blocking, where in both scenarios the player receives damage. For example, I was blocking a trident drowned with my shield when it suddenly completely destroyed my shield in about a second when it was not very near to being destroyed and took about three quarters of my health while I was wearing full iron armor in hardcore mode, and luckily, I survived.
Environment
Survival, being attacked by a skeleton or any variant of it, pillager, or trident drowned
