That’s why I always try to avoid driving head on into concrete walls.

The description says it was loaded with over 800lbs. of sand, so that explains a lot.

A test of the facility. The test was done at 100kmh, far above most tests, and the car was loaded with 827lbs of sand. Also the barrier was straight concrete and lacked the honeycomb.
The wall passed it's test.

Yep, more like this:
800lbs is probably overloaded, but it still isn’t that much though.

That back end had a lot of momentum.

That does explain why the trunk wasn’t willing to stop.
In the 60's US legislators were planning to raise the crash test speeds. Chrysler crash tested on e unlucky ‘69 Charger at high speed to show what kind of damage is expected when a high speed crash happens. The actual test speed is still unconfirmed but it was likely 60 mph but 75 or even 100 mph have been su ggested.
A short video exists but a weird camera angle doesn’t help figuring out the test speed.
