No Hmmmm needed. The photos clearly show what happened and in fact there's a huge amount of damage there. Ts have a huge ground clearance. The low to the ground hood of the small euro car that hit them (the front of which would also have nose dived under heavy braking) went under the T hitting the rear cross member, chassis and spring throwing the T skywards.

There are no 100% guarantees in life. I think in 80-90% of accidents wearing a seat belt in an A would lessen the chance of death or serious injury.
