Is it just me or does it look like the elevator push rod is sticking out the pilot side of the tunnel, slightly exposed through the carpet. Must have been quite some force to do that.

I don't think so....

The bottom of the firewall appears to be crushed upwards and aft, which caused the sides of the tunnel to buckle and to bunch up the carpet.
