Default Help, car won't start

I hit a curb last night and to my surprise both of my airbags went off. The car shut down immediately afterwards and I could not get the car to start (doesn't even crank, no sound).
Anyone know if there is a mechanism in SRS that kills the ignition when the airbags are deployed?

Anyway, I tried a few things from https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1090951 and https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=976465 to try to get the car to start but no dice.

Pulled the SRS fuse, reset ECU - nothing
Deleted the DTC memory - nothing
Reset ECU again - nothing
pulled the SRS fuse again and reset ECU again - nothing.

Any help appreciated.

The car is a '96 DC2 btw.

i dont think there is a mechanism in the SRS airbag system to destroy ignition. can the car go into "on" position? if it does, i would use a diagnostic trouble code tester. you plug it somewhere under the steering wheel and then you do this, and stuff and then you press "read troubl codes" and then it is bound to tell you. i think it connects to the ECU im not sure just got the diagnostic trouble code tester about 2 days ago.... every shop will have one. im certain
