I dont want to do the sensationalism thing but this is what happens when a glider and a powered aircraft meet in IMC - and it does and has happened:

Mid-Air Collision of Glider and Jet near Reno: ASG-29 vs. Hawker XP800 (by Jeremy Zawodny)

These were very very lucky and obvioulsy kept their fingers cross after they had collided.
