Some of the claims here are absolutely ridiculous/ impossible. If you even had all the traction in the world and the center of gravity of a Honda accord you would still go end over end.

Anyway, heres mine. never measured, made it up in one shot, a couple other rigs struggled, some rolled, and others took the easier line.

i was in a hardware store and saw some clinometers/landmeters with backlights that went to 45degrees pitch and roll... it was my first mod, a few days latter got it right off the gauge but we were guessing it was just at 50degrees.... totaly stock other than the cheap gauge, open diffs not aired down in 4l... going back down it fealt like we were standing on the floor boards , best mod ever was that cheap gauge
oops forgot to add it was about 40meters
