Using nether portals causes suffocation

Using nether portals on overworld when going to the nether causes suffocation. It happens like most of the time. Tested it multiple times.

Steps to Recreate: light any nether portal and use it.

Expected result: The player should be spawned in the center of the portal.

Obtained result: I was spawned underneath the portal, filled with solidblocks. 

I have a screen record of it but I can't put it here because the file size limit is only 10 mb.
