Oh har de har har. NOT FUNNY! 
I know of at least two fatalities and one VERY near miss (the upper aircraft's prop stopped less than 6" from the head of the pilot in the lower aircraft) in three seperate incidents in Australia.

Near identical
mishap at Half Moon Bay ~20 years ago. Mooney landed on a just launched C152. CFI and student in Cessna perished, Mooney landed w/o injury. Humor is relative. I myself narrowly missed being sliced into salami by a Cherokee 6 scimitar when ATC cleared him to land, without mentioning that I was in the pattern below and ahead of him.

Indeed there is a serous side to this incident, and one we can all learn from - mark 1 eyeball is there for a reason but not infallible - be warned, be aware.
But
Subject to all concerned being a-OK, reminds me of a landing incident between a PA28 and C152 where the PA28 landed ON the lower C152 while both AC were on final. Caption on the attached picture in the magazine read "will you still respect me in the morning" - from the clip it looks like this pair were playing it a bit more roughly altogether

MM, I think you will find this has had the thread started in R&N added to it. My reply above this was certainly posted there, not here.
