happened in 1.4.2, updated to 1.4.4 with no change
I was breeding pigs on minecraft on the 12th in evening when power went out
I had around 6 pigs when this happened
I relogin the following morning to find this roughly 20 x 20 hole straight down through the bedrock( another random tidbit, the hole only goes two blocks above surface, I had a nice 3 high wall, the top row was still there), along with so many pigs I cant even begin to imagine the number. I load right above this hole and fall in along with many pigs,
It laggs like crazy due to so many pigs I got a frame every 5 seconds or so, once my player falls down for a minute or so it reloads me at top of hole and I fall again.
I managed to make it out of hole once and get away from it, but it took me 15 mins to go 50 blocks, and then when I got far enough away (on tiny render distance) the game levels off and becomes normal again, except I when I break blocks nothing happens they just respawn.
So I figured I would get further away from hole and try to regroup kind of idea, now for some reason I am bound to this other random spot beside a tree where I sat while I googled the hole problem, now I cant leave this block for more then 3 or 4 seconds then it sucks me back to it.
I closed minecraft and reloaded world, it loads me above hole and it all happens over again. except there are many more pigs and game is lagged down even more to only giving me a frame every 10 seconds or so, I had to go into town so I shut computer down, I came back later and tried to load world (I have two or three others that work fine) and It says loading world, building terrain, then goes back to main screen after 30 seconds or so, but never loads. cpu is maxed trying to load but never loads
Im stuck, I spent alot of time playin this world, Im kind of disappointed it might be gone
Im sorry, but I,m not sure how to upload my world for others to see

Unfortunately it sounds like your power outage corrupted your Minecraft world. Unless you back up the files on a regular basis, I'm sorry to say it's likely that your world is now unrecoverable.
To back up your world(s), go to the folder:
"C:\Documents and Settings\[USER NAME]\Application Data\.minecraft\saves"
(where [USER NAME] is your Windows user name) and copy the files you find in there to another location. If you get problems in Minecraft, go into the "saves" directory, delete all the files you find, and then copy your backed-up files into it, and you should be back where you started.
That , is what the minecraft community calls a world hole,or chunk error. The blocks are still there, but the game just hasn't rendered them and doesn't know how to act. Hence why it thinks you are falling, but then puts you back up to the top because it realizes you can't be, because there are blocks under you.
Normally the way to fix it is by reloading your game...but it does sound like your game save is corrupted, so sadly...there is not much you can do :/

This is kind of hard to explain
