The Bug

The game crashes when certain explosions occur near a creaking in its death animation. See the attached crash report.

The types of explosions that cause a crash are:

• Creeper explosion
• Wither spawn explosion
• Fireball explosion
• Wither skull explosion
• Firework rocket with firework star

TNT, beds, respawn anchors, and end crystals do not cause a crash.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Place a creaking heart between two pale oak logs at nighttime to spawn a creaking.
2. Teleport the creaking next to the heart: 

   /tp @n[type=minecraft:creaking_transient] @s

3. Summon a creeper next to the creaking, and ignite it with a flint and steel.
4. Before the creeper finishes its fuse, break the creaking heart so the creaking enters its death animation.
5. If done correctly, the game should crash.
