Look at the survival cell around the occupants - cage looks like it's down exactly the job it's intended to do.
....... which is exactly the reason I wanted one.

That looks like it's hit something hard, skewed to one side, rolled and possibly even flipped end-over-end, or something went into the back of it, hard.
In any case, if that's a rally-spec cage, then it definitely looks like it was properly going some
