I watched it and like you, I wondered why and I wondered what his wife and kids were feeling. I also wondered why he would pray like that, when he put himself in such danger. All of it seemed kinda strange to me. I'm glad he made it, but I dread for him to do the next stunt. I used to think the same way about Evel Knievel(sp).
