Can jumping kill from high places kill your character?

So I have jumped from tonnes and tonnes of high areas and been left with 1 HP every time I do so.
My flatmate on the other hand claims that he has jumped from high places but died quite a few times.
I am a Lalafell. He isn't.
Is that something to do with it?

If you have aggro you will die, otherwise you will live with 1hp

If you're being aggro-ed by something then you will die jumping from high altittude.
If you are not aggro-ed by anything, jumping from high altittude will leave you with 1 hp.

Nothing to do with race :)

I once jumped off a humongous crystal thing in Coerthas... and landed right in front of an aggressive gigas. That was not a fun day.

Landing in a fate will also get you killed, even if you don't have a mob on you.

actually i was wondering if you could get aggro-ed while in air :P

would be quite funny if you jumped off thinking you are invincible, then some random mob aggro-ed you mid-air, gg

Yes.

It's not fun.

I can confirm you can die from fall damage. I had a low-level mining accident in Thanalan yesterday. >_>
