Ghast Tears add a health regeneration potion effect when they are brewed into a potion. Jeb realized that, if the player dies with a Ghast Tear in their inventory, they could respawn as if nothing happened. However, this was never implemented.

History
In Beta 1.9 pre-releases 2-3, Ghast Tears were used to make potions of Healing, but since Beta 1.9 pre-release 4 they have been used in Potions of Regeneration. This was due to the sheer amount of difficulty in obtaining Ghast Tears. As a replacement, Glistering Melons were added to create Potions of Healing.
