a different result? so he would be alive? heh

You ever see Gallagher smash those watermelons? Might look something like that.

I'm still trying to determine what part of the truck the poor dude is impaled on. It's hard to tell, but it looks like it's ONLY his helmet that's been wedged in between metal. Astonishing.

Im guessing broken neck ? Steel deck held his neck, and his head + helmet kept on going

i think his chest hit the metal bumper, so his head smashed through 1 'piece' of sheetmetal on the door, squeezing the helmet inbetween the bottom of the door and the next piece of sheetmetal

It seems to me that those would just blast the brain matter over into the weeds, where small animals, insects, and any other scavengers would feast on it.
 
I thought I was looking at an airbag deployed when looking at the wrecked bike. Then I asked myself how airbags are installed on bikes. When did this happen?
It took my a couple/few seconds to realize it's the tank flattened.
