I don't know, but I had a Chinook pilot who was at the plant giving a rah rah speech, tell me privately he'd seen one do a full forward tumble and recover. I wondered if he was bullshitting me, but I was polite*. The Chinook can fly so high it could of had time, but the blade stress would have been tremendous.
*Yeah I know, not me, but professionalism, prime customer, and all that.
