The bug
Whilst looking straight up or down, so that the player model is either facing the sky or the ground, the F5 camera just freezes.
How to reproduce
Look at yourself, pressing F5 whilst facing up or down, and the camera freezes. The player model head also seems to respect the issue, and only rotates horizontally (screenshots below).

Modified the Bug report, as an issue similar to this has already been posted (MC-145668);
this issue however is not all the same.
EDIT: The issue has now been confirmed that the F5 camera will freeze when the Player model faces both maximum directions of the Y axis (-90/90).
I can confirm - to add to that, the view is weirdly switched when you reach 90 degrees by looking downward.
