Maybe my eyes are playing tricks, but that handle doesn't exactly look straight.

The easiest (only?) way to bend it like that is to run over it with your truck, interestingly, there's a black smudge on it just about where you would run it over......(Just speculating of course...)

The wrench is sitting on an acorn table. This is a shop that can bend anything.
