If you are indeed another alias for bearfoil - which is in itself a breach of the rules on most forums, then you'll know full well that the question you've just asked was answered - several times - on previous threads. If you're having a good cackle forcing people to repeat themselves over and over, it's not big and it's not clever.
For the benefit of new posters/followers of this thread I'll repeat once and once only - The aircraft was in Alternate Law 2 (aka NO PROT) - in this control law there are *no* hard limits on the attitude that the aircraft can be put into. There are soft limits, but the pilot can override them simply by manipulating the flight controls (as demonstrated by the THS response). The pilot has *full authority*.
