Again with the making stuff up. The nose pitched to a max of 1 degree down briefly for 3-5 seconds at 02:10:00 (still in autoflight). Disconnect happened at 02:10:05, at which point the pitch attitude was approximately zero. The climb starts at 02:10:15, because the PF has manually set the pitch attitude to about ten degrees.
The aircraft does not exceed 20 degrees of roll throughout the disconnect/zoom climb part of the sequence and only starts to approach 40 degrees of roll once the stall is well established. The protection limit of Airbus FBW is 67 degrees of roll. 40 degrees of bank is definitely out of the ordinary, but the notion that the PF was fighting to stop the aircraft from going on "her back" is nonsense.
