The thing I find extraordinary is that, while I can sort of see how the Cessna pilot with his attention on the Cub might miss seeing the Husky, the pilot of the Cub, off to the side as it was, apparently also failed to see it and alert the Cessna to the impending midair.
Since the Cessna was filming the Cub I presume they were in radio contact during the formate. If the Cessna was doing an unplanned formate then I think he's got some hard questions to answer.

A very very lucky escape for all concerned.
