No more then the tops of your tires to be safe and till you learn how to dive in water. Remember your air intake is just about the tire in the l/f wheel well.

Yeah but are your vent tubes raised? Connected have dialectic grease on them, doors sealed? Etc...etc....?

I've had mine right up, and slightly above the side windows before in a flood for a extended period of time, always moving however, and had no problems, but I wouldn't suggest it.

The depth of the water in your video is around the height of the wheels, which has already been mentioned as a reasonable max height for the D2. The height of the bow wave is not the depth of the water. You can basically make the bow wave the size you want by the speed you travel through it.
