anybody know what this is?

Well, I certainly hope you didn't listen to any of these answers. I've come across these types of frames before, mainly with Nishiki and VeloSport. What you have is a Nishiki Aero frame. Decent bike for back in the day some 25 years ago. Check out http://www.bikeforums.net/forum.php

Put up a post there in the 'vintage/classic' section and you'll get more than a few replies I'm sure. Most people there actually know what they're talking about.

As for someone squeezing the frame to make it look like that. It's hard metal, if any one would be able to do that to a bike you would certainly see cracks in the metal from the stress but that's not the case as the bike was manufactured like that.
