 Description   

If the player is in or ungrounded (i.e, flying or falling) above still or flowing lava when a world is reloaded, they will be placed on any platform of solid blocks higher than both their previous location and the lava. If there isn't any block above the lava to be set upon, the player will be teleported to the world spawn point and sent the client message "Your home bed was missing or obstructed".
Tested in Creative and Survival mode, additional testing by @rplatham on Samsung Galaxy S4 (Android 5.0.1). This is a big problem in the Nether, where it can result in the player becoming stranded on top of the bedrock roof.

can confirm its fixed in the newest version 1.1.0win10 found new bug tho some flat fire particles float up from the bottom of your feet in lava and it's super irritating when mining straight down in creative in lava

you can also get back down by haveing a cave directly under you if your at the top of the nether on the layer of bedrock and saving and leaving and rejoining

Reopening this old ticket because I can still confirm this on 1.0.9.

Does this Still occur in 0.15.0 b2?

@Eriol+Ancalagon: See MCPE-7037 and MCPE-8612, respectively.

If I'm mining somewhere that's only 2 blocks high, if I logout there, I often then re-spawn above ground, directly above where I was underground. I presume the game is spawning me a half or 1 block above where I "actually" was, sees that I'm in something solid, and then moves me up until I'm not. This was on Android, survival single player.

This USED to happen prior to 12.1, but now it just takes half a heart of damage from me, and drops me down back onto the block I was actually standing on.

So now as I said above, it just gives me a half-heart of suffocation damage, and drops me back down. Something tells me that if dropping down would kill you, and/or lava, that this bug is generated. So it may be a result of "fixing" my old problem, since it doesn't happen anymore.

It once happened to me in the Overworld.

It also happens to clients when on multiplayer.

I had this issue occur in the nether. Fell in Lava. Quit to title. Reload . Stuck on top of bedrock. I couldn't die of starvation either. My hearts wouldn't go down past half. I quit out and reloaded . The second time I did this it spawned me at original world generation spawn.
