I threw an ender pearl at a wall (chiselled sandstone blocks), which immediately crashed the game. Upon reopening the world, it instantly crashes. In this way, I am unable to reproduce it because I cannot actually play the game. Whether or not the enderpearl throwing is relevant to the crash, I do not know.

Attached the crash report as a text file.
Are these reports from throwing the pearl or trying to open your world?

I experienced a similar crash. Threw an enderpearl and game crashed when it hit. Game would continually crash when trying to re-open world. Was able to load world in mcedit and move the player to a different location. Then was able to load world, have not re-experience this crash. And I enderpearl a lot.

Yeah, that's the same crash.
Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.
No answer on querry, assuming not an issue anymore.
