Liz shows him why he must die, he drowns himself to prevent all possible Comstocks from existing, she fades from existence, and the multi-verse rights itself. The paradox would be if Liz had never existed, nobody would convince Booker to off himself, so then Comstock would happen, and the paradoxical cycle would continue.
The theory I have heard is that Liz, after destroying the siphon, tends to transcend the universe and exist fully inside and outside of all realities. There are infinite universes but only ONE in which the siphon is actually destroyed, releasing her full potential, and resulting in the drowning scene which cancels all other Columbia universes.

GIVE ME SOME GODDAMN SALTS AN..er.. ELIZABETH. She did it so often even on hard too.
Oh god, I had a nightmare scenario with the autosaves. I had recently moved my Xbox and TV to a different room, and never hooked up the ethernet. After playing one night for several hours I booted up my file only to be dropped at the point from before I moved the Xbox. I thought I had just lost hours of gameplay for no reason, before I figured out that my Xbox had reset its internal clock back to 2005, and my save files were actually listed before the earlier save points. Ugh what a heart attack moment.
