Adamantine, as its name suggests, is hard as diamond and that's all. Its DR bypass is not supernatural and a construct's DR 15/admt isn't supernatural either. So if it comes to "fantasy" there are two possibilities: either "it's magic" or "it's not historical". Admt definitely falls in the latter category. Defying physics definitely falls in the former.
EDIT: another proposal. Adamantine works through anything with hardness less than 20 without any effort. In this case, Torin's adamantine full plate cuts through floor like knife through butter. Even when the dwarf is inside. Means he has to keep treading as if it were a body of water. non-Newtonian fluid. If he stops he sinks.
The good side is that he wouldn't risk being damaged by the process since he's not made of wood.
He would never suffer falling damage either since he would never stop falling until he would hit adamantine or would reach the gravitational center of the planet.
Unless of course this is a magical world with no gravitational pull at all.
