Here is a video of the hang, goes for 5+ minutes before it fixes itself here and demonstrates what I can and can't do while this is in progress. Sometimes this results in death as I am unaware that the game is hanging and god knows what happens while it's not showing animations but it finally unfreezes and I'm dead somewhere completely different to where I was when it came good (i.e. I was mining at level 12 below my village at level 52 and when I realised what had happened I stopped and waited for it to right itself only to die on the surface by a couple of archers just outside my village with no loot drops, all my gear was gone, all my diamonds, all that Obsidian T_T ).

Getting this issue on Windows 10 too, latest version, only seems to happen on a horse and in survival (I haven't tested further).
Quitting the game is the only fix right now and makes it extremely frustrating when adventuring beyond your home/base/village.
Seems to be a distance + speed issue. I can travel till I hit the bug then quit and load back up but it will happen again if I keep travelling in that direction. Feels like a load error, like it's running out of memory but I have 20GB of RAM in my setup so it can't be a lack of memory for terrain generation.
I also get a hang in the game where everything stops moving; villagers, mobs, animals, particles, tile drops, etc. but I am free to move, mine and the daylight cycle still rotates. This happens for a few minutes then it fixes itself, then computes the actions made after the hang began (even to the point that if it has turned night during the hang it blinks back to daylight upon fixing itself). I will be making a seperate report on this issue. >> MCPE-39880
Thanks for looking into this issue as it is highly frustrating 😉
This is still happening and is an ongoing issue that forces me to restart the game constantly during gameplay...--
