I would bet he probably hit the tree while airborne, then dropped to the ground, thus avoiding skid marks.
I know someone who had this sort of accident and just barely survived. I've also known people who've hit trees 8 feet up with their car! This is when the shoulder drops off steeply.
I would bet the car was probably chopped in two by rescue crews with their "jaws of life" to help get the people or person out. It looks like a pretty clean cut on the photo of looking into the rear end of the car.
