Epic Skill Levels (25+) and Epic Feats of Skill - Page 5

Greetings, all!

A couple of years ago, I heard about a D20 supplement that dealt with really high skill levels and the feats/challenges doable by such epic characters. In GURPS, I assume that's skill level of 25 and above. So I wonder what uses can a PC, and what challenges can a GM, find for such high skills. Some ideas of mine to get the thread started:

Lizard Climb + Light Walk: running on two legs on a glass window. Vertically.

Accounting: with a single look at the records, immediately and reliably find any shady deals.

Lockpicking: open a high-security lock (-5) using a feather (-5) in several seconds (-9).

Cryptography: decode military-grade encoding in real-time (-10 for being rushed).

Things I'm curious about (some examples): Meditation, social skills, Psychology, Math (esp. Pure), Expert Skills, Philosophy.

Thanks in advance to all who join!
