I've seen those before. The Waltrip one looks like a very poorly built race car but I'd say the angle of impact made the car fold like that.
The Bodine one is probably the most spectacular one ever. I've seen a photo sequence taken by another photographer that he shot from the infield and it's amazing Geoff survived.
The significance of Sadler's wreck is the head on impact creating over 80 Gs on his body. It's a wonder his eyes didn't pop out or his brain hemorrhaged. Sadly, if they had the safety measures back in 2001 that they have today, Dale Earnhardt would have surly walked away from that last lap wreck that took his life.
