It wouldn't be a rollover the would it?

It would be a pitchover and the fuselage would probably stop it continuing forward as the nose hit the ground.

It happens laterally much easier due to the relatively narrow width of most undercarriage.

The classic texbook version has it happen on a slope but it is easy to do on level ground as well.
