Dawnbreaker Death Bug?

I've got a save just finishing up The Break the Dawn quest for Dawnbreaker. However when I take it and Merida pops me into the sky it'll end up killing me, every time. The game isn't teleporting me back to the shrine before I actually hit the ground from the fall (And die). Happens over and over, retried the quest, left the temple, came back in, tried to pause the game to see if the quest would update while I was in menus and thus teleport me down safely in time... doesn't seem to be working.

Anyone got an answer for it or is the quest just FUBAR?

In the bug section on uesp they write the following:

"When you hang in the sky while talking to Meridia, she may suddenly drop you and you die when you hit the ground before the teleportation triggers.

PC Only This bug is fixed by version 1.3.2 of the Unofficial Skyrim Patch.

This is often caused by carrying too much weight. Try dropping a few things before taking the sword.

Walk towards Meridia as soon as she has lifted you into the sky, thereby dropping onto the area at the base of the statue instead of a longer drop further back.

Skip through the dialogue with her and you will be able to adjust your position before the fall begins. You need to land on the upper area of her pedestal.

The warp takes some time to activate. Try and position yourself over the lowest altitude position you can to maximize your fall time. The road to the southwest is a good choice."

If that doesnt help aswell just use tgm command to survive the fall.
