Riptide Trident Inventory Loss

I was playing on my PS4 world, messing around with my riptide III trident under the rain, but I flew too high. In an attempt to stop my fall, I launched towards the wall of my 4 story house and fell very hard on the floor (dead). When I went to pick up the items, there was nothing left but my shield and armor...I had so many good stuff on me...I thought the items could hace jumped really far, but that would not have explained why there were only the shield and the armor dropped.
