I can only see an open tube....with a lots of stuff in there. How do you conclude about any big damage in there???

Well, if you read the text for the pictures i think you can figure it out.
Specifically where its supposed to be a straight "thing", and its gotten half a meter bent out of shape.

Yeah, you didn't mention I should click on the picture to see the real damage... 
Now that's some nasty $hit! What would have happened if the pipe blowed up???

An awful lot of helium would have escaped and major damage would have been done. Because helium is expensive and hard to obtain quickly in large quantities (the LHC contains the equivalent of the entire world's annual production), it would have represented a major setback.

First proton collisions.  |
Yip, they fire two cars around in a circle and they hit each other at high speed. New form of crash test I think

Nice linky! Thanks!! 
Proton-Proton collisions, functioning Beam 1 and 2!! Very nice.. now if they can do that at full power next spring ( this was a half-power run to test the repairs first ), they will prove whether or not the Higgs boson/mass particle/force carrier exists in the 10^14 Electron-Volt (EV) range or not... exciting indeed!!
