How to unlock the Die Hard achievement in Outer Wilds - Definitive Guide
End a time loop (Alive) after having taken (and healed) over 1000 damage.
This is according to the Achievement Description found on the xbox.com site.
I got this by doing the following:
1. Wake up
2. Acquire launch codes if you don't already have them
3. Get into your ship and put on your suit
4. Jump back down to the first campfire where you wake up (don't die on the descent)
5. Step into the fire until your suit says Vitals Critical
6. Roast and eat 2 Perfect Marshmallows (aka don't let them catch fire) to restore health or as others have suggested, enter your ship and use the medkit found on the wall to the left of your suit
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 ~11 times to be safe (assuming your character has 100 health)
8. Play out the rest of your time loop (a time loop is 22 minutes total) without dying, waiting for the Sun to supernova

How long is a time loop? Is it a certain amount of time or is it based on story progression?

I got it using medikits instead of marshmellows.

You have 100 HP and get the warning "vitals low" at ~65 damage and "vitals critical" at ~90.
There's two ways to heal damage: The ship med kit and eating roasted marshmallows. Perfectly roasted marshmallows heal you to full, so being good at roasting helps.
Easy sources of controlled recurring damage are fall damage and fire.
Combining this information, I suggest getting your suit from the ship, drop down to the campfire you start at (should get you to "vitals low"), roast a marshmallow, jump in the fire until you get vitals critical, repeat marshmallow and fire 11 times. If you lost count or chickened out before "vitals critical" once or twice, just keep rotating roasting yourself and marshmallows until you feel safe, then doze off at the campfire until the time loop ends.
If fire is too scary, or roasting perfect marshmallows too hard, 15 jumps from the tower and heals at the ship should work just as well.
