Given how many people in the past have complained about the difficulty of
its pronunciation (82 phonemes) and its extremely complex and alien
morphology (e.g., 81 noun cases, verbs inflect for 22 morphological
categories), I'm sure some would say Ithkuil meets Geoff's criteria.  As
for samples, the Ithkuil website is loaded with mp3 sound files of example
sentences.
