Creepy bug?

Ok, i'm gonna go straight to the bug... I was playing New Vegas, just had started a new game and needed some guns. I decided to go to Trading Post 188 because they usually have Hunting Rifles and more good weapons for starters. I was dumb and started my trip from Goodsprings and wanted to take the straightest route, right past Black Mountain. (I have the Ultimate Edition of the game) Well, the first thing that happened: Neil scared the crap out of me and warned me about the Super Mutants. Well, that one reason not to go throught the mountain, and the road next to me was full of Deathclaws! I decide to go past on the small rocks between the road and the mountain, and made it to safety. But there was one small problem, a Deathclaw had gotten separated from the others and was now on my way! Well i had killed many Deathclaws on my previous times of playing the game, and i knew that i could kill one Deathclaw... Well, i killed the Deathclaw (i shot it's head off with a Caravan Shotgun) and looted it. I thought that i was safe to go and continued my journey. But then the DEAD Deathclaw bugged out and it's lower half was svcked in to the ground (you have seen those Brahmin with their ass in the ground) and lunged past me. I was like WTF but then it lunged back AT ME and hit me, sending me flying somewhere and killing me from falling damage. Then it just teleported to my dead body, spinned around a few times and popped out of the ground. I was really confused, laughing and a little scared at the same time. This was the weirdest bug i have ever seen in any game, so i decided to ask, has any had something similar happen to them? (Btw, i'm playing on PC and the only cheat i've used is TCL to skip those long walks like in Come Fly With Me)

sometimes nastys like DC will get stuck in the graphics. one got stuck in a railroad car. i saved the game and then reload. so it was placed where it should be. it came at me but i killed in just a split second before it could strike. i backed up just enough before the save.

Yeah well, i have had many NPC:s and various things get stuck in the ground, but never lunging at me, must be some kind of a coding bug...
