Ah, the new IIHS offset shipping container crash test.

Toyota gets no stars. No stars at all...

I don't think that's gore, if you're referring to the red all over the white; as the shipping container is the same rusty red and likely responsible for the transfer.

That said, I don't know how anyone could have endured this crushing force.

I know I shouldn't ask...but was there someone in there?

It's probably oil or some shit which came out of the drivetrain as it was being smashed.
If anyone were inside that van, you wouldn't be simply seeing blood. You'd also see shattered bones and other human remains.

I'm pretty sure it's paint from the container. I can't imagine anybody in the Toyota survived that one.

yup. Thats why I ask, I don't see any evidence of removal or well...presence.

That's horrifying...

Usually, I'd be sorry for the HiAce that was flattened (if it was just parked with no one inside), but that sort of emotion is rather inappropriate here.

Kinja'd!!!

That would be a very heavy load.

Kinja'd!!!

And that looks a lot like blood, though there are certainly many other fluids in a car.

This is the Google translation of the Thai text from the news article:
