I don’t understand fall damage and I never will.

You should have stopped jumping, I don't think it ever registered you landing so it counted the entire distance as a fall

Dude: aah finally landed safe
Game: NO

I’m just gonna keep spamming the jump button

They just OD'd on fall damage in this game that's the real issue

Until you come to a complete stop, the game will treat you like you are continually falling from higher and higher even though you seemed to have broken your fall at a safe height already.

Yeah, I finished my first playthrough and never quite figured it out. ‘You fall too far you die’ is pretty much the extent of my understanding

One thing to notice: he never stopped moving. The game kept thinking he never landed cause he was either sliding or jumping
