I thought they said you're invulnerable when listening to the comments.

I noticed if you place yourself to look at yourself from a portal when you activate a commentary node, a white box will appear around you and certain platforms, at least in the 360 version.

EDIT:
I also noticed if you place a portal on a wall and then another on the floor under it, so that it's upside down (meaning every other view is the other way around), when you look at the "endless" chain of portals, you'll notice about three portals down there's a "non-connected" portal visible. I guess the 360 runs out of calculating memory or something when it has to draw each space upside down and the othe way around.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

On the PC version there's an advanced option for "Portal Render Depth," which is set to 3 by default. So yeah, 360 probably just had that done for you. I tried running it with 10 or so, but honestly all it did for me was cause lag spikes every time I shot the portal gun. (And when I was playing, I couldn't tell the difference anyway.)
No but see, if you place a portal on a wall and another opposite, you'll see way further than three. It'll look like it goes on forever as it's supposed to, but with the wall-reverse floor one you actually see an unconnected portal very clearly.

I remember one of the commentaries saying something about them limiting it to five.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
