Top of ladder falling loop

Last night on the NA siege server:

I put a siege ladder against the corner of a building and when trying to walk straight over the top of the ladder (ladder was angled so walking over the top corner of ladder) and drop onto a roof below, I got stuck in a falling loop where I appeared to be dropping through the roof of the building and then towards the ground.  The loop ended after about 5 seconds and I was back on the roof.

On another map I put up a medium ladder against the corner of a building and this time tried to jump off the top of the ladder (again probably moving over top corner of ladder because it was angled) and got caught in a falling loop that sent me straight down from the edge of the ladder and this time to the ground because the ladder wasn't directly over the wall I was jumping toward.  Jumping off the side, not near the top, of the same ladder worked fine but the top of ladders seem to have an issue.

This has been happening to a lot of people :( please help! Medium ladders seem to be smaller then they actually are so the last 5-10 feet of it is invisible. While siege ladders seem to be longer then they actually are and you tend to fall through the end of it.

walking backwards will generally get you unstuck

you should be jumping when you get near the top anyhow
