You have to really try hard to flip an H1. I've been in some pretty sticky situations where as the driver you feel dam uneasy only to find out that your not even close to flipping. I've never seen a flip first hand but the few times I've heard about it usually involve extreme slopes and complete tire failure, bead break, no runflats, etc.
The one story I've heard had an h1 roll over and down a steep hill. Understand the roll cage held and the truck though banged up pretty bad was driveable, in fact they drove it the remainder of the weekend trail ride w.o. problem. Still I suspect a big part of what damage is done is what and where you roll. On sand or soft dirt your damage will be less than rolling on heavy rock or in to tree's. etc. Lots of variables in answering the question. Regardless not something I'm sure any of us want to discover.
