Gravity Torch
Just a torch that can stand up on its own---and drop down when you mine down.

About this Mod
The Mounted Torch is a rather simple thing. Craft it by mounting a torch onto a piece of cobblestone, then place it in the world just like any other block. What makes it special is that it will fall down if you mine away the block beneath it. Just like sand and gravel do.
For 1.7.10: The rendering is thread-safe and Angelica-compatible.
For 1.21: The torch can be waterlogged, although it goes out when it gets wet. You can reignite it like a candle after you get rid of the water.
