I found a few ways to glitch up your upper body in this game. It looks pretty funny, but so far I haven't found a really good use for any of it. Oh well... Research is still under way.
0:00 - first method of doing this glitch is to aim strongly upwards or downwards with a bottle or a weapon in first-person view and then use a ladder. The aiming angle gets stuck on your character's upper body indefinitely. The glitch only becomes fixed if you try to aim again or do certain other actions like choking a guard.
1:15 - if you get yourself a downwards slant and go prone, then use R-stick to turn the camera even further down, your character's face will clip through the floor. Entering first-person view now allows you to look into the out of bounds area underneath.
1:32 - second method of doing this glitch is to aim strongly upwards or downwards in first-person view and then switch costumes.
2:04 - one practical (?) benefit of having a downwards slant is that it makes your character smaller and thus harder to detect.
As one example, in Last Train Home, even if you've managed to play the whole stage without any alarms, you will always be noticed as you climb back up the ladder to the train's roof (at least on Normal-difficulty). However, if you are crouching and have the glitch active, you are so low that the enemies only become suspicious for a moment, allowing you to be stealthy for marginally longer than usual.
2:27 - doing special actions like pushing boxes or riding carts looks silly when your pose is slanted.
2:40 - a glimpse inside the main character's head...
2:56 - the upwards slant exists in a cutscene. Also, you don't inherit slantedness after a character switch.
3:24 - there's a different and in some ways more limited upper body glitch that can be done prone with a bottle and another item.
Stay prone, aim with a bottle and then switch to the second item. That's it. Now your character's upper body stays in the bottle aim position and they also get an upwards slant out of nowhere. However, this glitched state is quite fickle, and it ends if you crawl forwards normally or simply get up.
The most interesting thing that happens during this variation is that you can get your character's head to sink quite deep into walls. If you then enter FPV, the first-person camera appears out of bounds as well. Unfortunately, turning the view or ending the FPV returns things to normal with seemingly no side effects. Would have been interesting to go deeper or even through walls with this, but so far it doesn't seem to be possible.
(Not on the vid: you can do a version of this pose glitch while standing or crouched as well, but the effect doesn't seem to be as interesting.)
4:02 - you can also shove your head inside walls while slanted. I wonder if you could get closer to prompts this way and use them through walls? It seems a bit unlikely somehow, though.
4:25 - getting arrested while slanted. You were only outdoors during curfew because you needed medical help for your back, honest!
