I believe the pics are real, but the story behind the pics is bogus. i.e. they did not come from cameras that were eBay'd, bla bla bla.

The bull one was good. The others are badly photochopped.

The bull picture is real. I believe Snopes has an explanation (can't get to it from work). It's obviously from the Running of the Bulls in Pamplona - IIRC the photographer was uninjured.

How are the digital cameras still working?

Clue:

It's a joke!

The bull pic is the only one that's real, I believe. It is true, however, that the memory cards are pretty resilient - I remember seeing some 9/11 pics from a photojournalist who was in the WTC when it collapsed, and his digital media in his DSLR survived the collapse.
 
The true story behind the bull pic:

The image shown above was taken by a photographer during the 2002 San Fermín festival and distributed by the Reuters news agency. According to a representative for Reuters, the photographer who snapped this remarkable picture was not injured in any way. (The photo was taken with a camera operated via remote control.)
