The vette and pick up were probably two salvage cars and the truck was put on the vette with a fork lift. The truck's frame is broken.

Searching for my first C5, but how does picture #1 happen? That is the second picture I have seen on the forum with a Corvette "under"another car and don't understand how that occurs.

Don't know for sure that this is correct but it sounds good anyway. If you look at a C5 in profile they are basically a wedge, then consider this. The car in front hits its brakes which makes the rear of the car rise. The Corvette does the same seeing the accident getting ready to happen, as it hits the brakes its rear rises as well and the front dives for the ground. One up in back and one down in front, also consider just how low even a stock C5 is. Viola!!
The picture shows just how much of a wedge shape a C5 has...
