you probably dented your oil, since VTEC needs full oil to operate, it wont activate

oil pan...check for leaks of fluid.

Also...if you ACTUALLY got 2 feet off the ground, you broke something. You're just not looking hard enough if you haven't found it yet

An impact could have dented your oil pan and/or moved the oil pickup. Has the check engine light illuminated?
