You'll have to see the pic, it's not gruesome because there are no bodies etc. (although bike is completely engulfed in flame). The bike is vertical, standing on its front wheel and balanced against the left front fender of the van. The front wheel of the bike is the only thing that is in contact with the road surface so no it wasn't lain down. Imagine yourself just casually standing upright and leaning slightly backward with your ass against the front left side of the van for balance. That's what it looks like.
This is why above I mentioned how hard it is to wrap my head around the fact this pic could actually be real. It is on TMZ sports after all. But you do see flaming crotch rocket and white Dodge van. There's another pic further down on that webpage that shows a distance shot of bike/van and flames, maybe someone familiar with that stretch of road can verify if all that looks like 2222 & MBR. And for those above who mentioned it no I'm not going to post the pic or any others.
