glitch...

Why were you taking screenies before you started flying? And how come nobody is reacting to it?

It has happened to me. I fell back down then some guy told me I was lucky because he had seen a guy get stuck up there.

That once somehow happened to me in pre-searing around Ashford. I stood on top of an NPCs head.

They where all when i was flying, some dont look like it though, because of angles, and non of them where dead, so they couldnt zoom on me, afterwards when i told them they all thought i was lieing and just ran into the enemy.[then i posted images on image shack ] {we where also using vent}

didn't you post this already?

I had the other extreme of this when I did the Frost Gate mission recently - a Stone Summit Crusher was actually inside the hill we were standing on, so just had to select him with the keyboard.

AFAIK it's only a visual glitch, you're true location is still on the ground where it should be, hence you still tripping that trap in the last screen.
