Default Broken cv shaft?

I was being stupid and the full weight of my jeep fell on the drive line. The cuff the keeps the drive line from over extending seems to have been pulls off and bent the cuff only. The drive shaft seem straight but I'm wondering if this can be fixed?

Post a picture of the damage to the shaft? if you just landed on the shaft itself a new one should fix it right up. or was it an sye/ double cardan driveshaft?

I'll post a picture as soon as I get home. And yes it's a double Cardan drive shaft.
