Crazy images, however I think that they may be unrelated.
Notice in the images with the car pinned under the truck - notice the "a" post - it's been cut and the engine debris pulled away, for perhaps extrication. You can see the saw at the bottom of the first image and cleaned up in the second.
The ones after that show a different damage pattern to the roof and an engine bay.
I'd venture to say that the person in the first images, survived - probably not doing so well, though. You can see where the roof provided some protection. Also notice the firefighters and medical reposnders pulling the patient. The guy in the red appears to be the medic. People dead on arrival are not pulled so carefully. A quick assesment is done just before the patient is pulled and the guy in the red is continuing the primary assesment and treatments. If there was a passenger in the first set with the truck, which there doesn't look to have been, they probably would not have made it.
However, the person(s) in the second set probably did not make it. Just too much damage.

Some parts may have been moved/sawed off, but I believe the car is the same; look at some of the parts hanging loose, the location is the same in figures 2, 3 and 4. It's hard to believe somebody could have survived this accident.
