Narrative:
I was operating a part 91; VFR; and no flight plan filed flight. [Landing airport] is in class G airspace and is non-controlled without taxiways.while I was left down wind at 800 feet I heard [another aircraft] 5 miles west of airport. I replied 'can I land first' because I just about turning base. Next I heard 'making 360 3 mile.' I tried to make short approach for traffic separation but I noticed wind was calm and slight tail wind then I [transmitted] 'I am going all the way [to the] end.' I touched down before midfield and [rolled] down to end of runway.I made full stop in turn-around area heading still 050 to waiting for [other aircraft's] next call either go around or full stop. After probably 3 minute or so there was no communication after I landed; I wondering where [the position of the other aircraft]. Then I turn airplane slightly left (about 10 degrees) to be able to see traffic. My airplane was still within turn-around area.next I saw passengers already evacuated from [the other aircraft] on the unimproved area to the north of the runway nearly half way down the runway heading towards the west. I then started to taxi to transit parking area; when I got close to [the aircraft]; debris and both of the aircraft's tires were on the unimproved area. One man was crossing the runway in front of me. I thought not safe enough to taxi the airplane. I decided to make 180 back to turn around area. I decided made another 180 taxi to transit parking area. In order to taxi to parking I need to pass [nearby]. Someone on the radio said 'what are you doing runway is closed? I replied 'I'm going to park; there is a truck.' there was yellow truck approaching to runway in front of me so I stop once; after truck left I checked outside for objects. Runway was clear and I was able to taxi to parking. I didn't see [landing] and don't know why the airplane [was damaged].
