i've made some descriptive images as i am not capable of producing gifs/videos of reasonable quality. so see the imgur link for yourself:

example:
by sitting in a door frame facing one frame and then slightly turning the mouse to do a 45 degree turn you can force the 3rd person camera to move away from your char effectingly exploiting it to see around whole buildings while sitting comfortably in a door. the camera basically moves away until it suddenly snaps back when reaching the full 45 degree.
