  We present a free form mass reconstruction of the massive lensing cluster
MACSJ0416.1-2403 using the latest Hubble Frontier Fields data. Our model
independent method finds that the extended lensing pattern is generated by two
elongated, closely projected clusters of similar mass. Our lens model
identifies new lensed images with which we improve the accuracy of the dark
matter distribution. We find that the bimodal mass distribution is nearly
coincident with the bimodal X-ray emission, but with the two dark matter peaks
lying closer together than the centroids of the X-ray emisison. We show this
can be achieved if the collision has occurred close to the plane and such that
the cores are deflected around each other. The projected mass profiles of both
clusters are well constrained because of the many interior lensed images,
leading to surprisingly flat mass profiles of both components in the region
15-100 kpc. We discuss the extent to which this may be generated by tidal
forces in our dynamical model which are large during an encounter of this type
as the cores "graze" each other. The relative velocity between the two cores is
estimated to be about 1200 km/s and mostly along the line of sight so that our
model is consistent with the relative redshift difference between the two cD
galaxies (dz = 0.04).
