I made a piston elevator on Minecraft Xbox 360 edition. It is about 62 blocks high, it's a basic piston elevator but each level consists of a platform of redstone. I've tested it to make sure that the timing is right.

Whenever I use it, it kills me when I reach the top block. It seems to think I'm falling even though I'm going up. I removed the platform you land on at the top and replaced it with water but it still damages me a lot (it doesn't kill me though) and it can't squish me because there is nothing at the top to squish me with.

Is there a way to stop it from killing me?

    Are you sure it's not squishing you at the top? Posting and idea of exactly what your elevator looks like would help. Either screenshots or diagrams :)

    You've singlehandedly recreated the tower of terror.

    Can we see the design? if we can it will be easier to find your problem.

    Also, I don't know what you've done that the elevator ends up killing you but this is in fact accurate physics : no matter which direction you go (down, up, even left or right), it's the sudden stop at the end that kills you. So remember : don't drink and drive !

I think it may be because the piston extension NOT BASE does not count as a full block, but it depends what type of elevator.

To see if you are on a full block or not press F3(PC), there is something saying g:true/false (if its true you are standing on a full block)
