Mounting two different disk slices on the same mount point

Hello FreeBSD gurus,
Some linux guy gave me a strange idea:
You have two disks, /dev/da1s1e and /dev/da2s1e and I mount the
two to a single mount point.
Do I end up with the total capacity of the two disks on the said
mount point?
To be a bit clear, da1 is, say, 36GB and da2 is 72GB and I mount
as above to /mnt
Does /mnt now have 108GB?
What are the dangers of doing this?
How does the system use the disks?
I haven't tested this anyway.
Is this something sane?
Clues will be highly appreciated.
