No, but I've seen a midget Falmer running around in the Dwemer ruins under Markarth.

Yes, I had this yesterday. I has been in sneak mode for quite a while but though, the cross hairs changed I didn't actually come out of it as far a the literal point of view was concerned. I just went back into sneak and then out again to clear it.

I have noticed that if you are in sneak when you go into a standing activity ( mining, smithing, conversations initiated by others, etc. etc.) you will be in standing mode after the activity but the perspective remains the crouched point of view. You also move at crouched speed. If you crouch and stand up again, things return to normal.

I used to have this happen....[not an arrow in the knee joke, I promise]... but then it stopped. It happened more and more frequently, where I would get out of 'sneak mode' but still be crouching. I'm not sure why it stopped. It may have been after installing one of the patches (I'm on PS3). Is your game patched?

I've also had my FPOV height get stuck in the "sneak crouch" setting a couple times. Moving to a new location (fast travel, certain doors) always fixed it. (I'm on a PC, and actually have a modded skeleton that makes my FPOV match my character's height; he's 1.3 times taller than normal. This has no effect on the bug except to make it rather obvious when it comes up, since I'm suddenly not looking down at everybody, ducking to get through low tunnels, etc.)

I think the camera gets glitchy; one time I had a death lord hit me with his shout, I was blasted back into a cave wall. My camera was stuck in the rocks, and I could still run around in 3rd person. That required a reload.

I experienced that weird encounter. I wonder if the devs put that in purposely. That little dude/dudette could hit, hard. That was very, very odd.

Sometimes the 3rd person view changes on me (usually after swimming). The normal view fits the character on the screen from the knees upwards with plenty of space still above the head (zooms out further when you draw a weapon). When it changes, the character fits from the waist up with the top of the head touching the top of the screen. The body is now taking up about a third of the screen. Had to reload a previous save to fix it.

Crouching and uncrouching helps. But I don't seem to be getting this bug anymore.

On a side note, are Bretons shorter by nature. My High Elf seems to towers over Delphine.

I had a glitch after leaving Silver Blood Inn the other day. As soon as I exited, my feet were underneath the ground and I couldn't walk. I could jump, sneak, even fast travel or go back inside. No matter what my feet were either a foot above or below ground. I got annoyed and tried to do a fire breath shout outside the Falkreath DB Santuary and in the middle of the shout the game froze.

Fixed itself after reloading the most recent autosave from trying to fast travel.. But t'was odd.

I often get stuck in sneak height, have no sneak related mods, I guess it happens if you do some actions like mining while in sneak mode, entering and exiting sneak mode solves it.

Another weird bug is if you zoom out from 1st to 3rd person view as an Khajiit your tail stand straight out, putting away weapons and take them out again solves this.

Yes, it's a glitch. You are basically still crouching, while the crosshair says you're not. Just tap the crouch-button a couple of times and it is fixed.
