@JeremyECrawford Greetings from the UK!
I had an odd thought. What happens if your knocked prone while underwater?— DungeonMasterLee (@Quothcraft) February 27, 2018
If you're knocked prone underwater, you're subjected to the effects of the prone condition as normal. One way to visualize it is that you're floundering. #DnD https://t.co/qKr3bLxGnw

Does this apply to flying creatures that can hover?
This seems to contradict your last tweet on the subject.https://t.co/wtjBqKsptc

Being underwater doesn't stop you from being knocked over. Hovering also doesn't stop you from being knocked over, but hovering does stop you from falling when you're knocked over in the air. #DnD https://t.co/jC9j9FKr0Q

You can almost always be knocked prone. About the only time it's physically impossible for you to be knocked prone is when you're affixed to something that keeps you upright. #DnD https://t.co/uDlaKAsh8z

Isn't it implied that if you are knocked prone while flying, you all? Would be 500 ft. per round according to Xanathar's Guide. #DnD

The rules on flying explicitly state that you fall if you're knocked prone, unless you're hovering or being held aloft by magic. Is there prone in space? Or am upright, and everything else is prone?#DnD https://t.co/XwRL7OxYEy
