What's your favorite high-target-number roll that you actually pulled off?
We had a wizard create a manna barrier in a helicopter (plane? It was about
10 years ago) between the windshield & the pilot. Vehicle kept going. Pilot
didn't. You can argue rules, but it was such a cool idea, the GM allowed it,
and they actually made the role.
