Didn't see this thread, but here is three in action photos for membership.
Happened on Fins and Things during Moab 2015.
Short story on what happened, I goofed and let up going up an obstacle, rolled backwards and took a different view of the obstacle from different angles.
The beginning of the roll
The view of "oh sh#t"
The view of "dangit"
Finishing the trail

Nice picture Birdy.
I'm trying to determine whether the right rear is still in contact with the ground. At first look, this does not qualify, you need to try harder.

Happened about 5 years ago right after the dana 30 sas, now it has a 44. I was cresting a hill and didn't see the washout until I was in it, only crushed in the fender, a little on the door enough so the window wouldn't roll down and broke the mirror off. I actually think that the front right tire wasn't touching dirt either, it was resting on the fender and the back right tire, maybe the back bumper a little. It was fun! They have since put an orange cone in front of the hole, which I still can't see when I'm coming up the hill.Birdy.... I hope this wasn't recent, as you have a meet coming up in a month or so!!

Question for y'all, does anyone know how many degrees of tilt it took before tipping over? Especially in the lifted explorers.
Somewhere between "Uh Oh" and "Oh S*%t"

Birdy, I have conference'd with the former President and we determine you still have 3 wheels touching and your driver seat bottom is not yet perpendicular (or beyond) to the normal ground plane. Also there is a lack of potential for further rotation to perpendicular (and beyond).
Nice try though!
That means membership denied :-(
