The image doesn’t look like a photo. The meme is about porn. Digital images can contain large areas of repeating patterns (uniform color areas for example) that can be compressed losslessly pretty well. Even slight noise from an image sensor can block that kind of compression pretty well.

bmp should not compress more than other media files. jpeg, png, etc. can compress so much because they are lossy

ZIP compression of bmp is worse, but still compresses better than png. Here are the files
