I think he's disqualified from the Darwins. His calling forbids him reproducing already. Apropo.

I hope he raised enough for the chapel at least.

See! If the papacy wasn't so hung up on gender roles he could have had one of those magic wimples for back up.

Reminds me of that guy in the early 80's that strapped a bunch of surplus weather balloons to his lawn chair in California. Of course that guy lived amazingly after crashing into some power lines. I imagine the Padre ended up as shark food out in the Atlantic somewhere.

Holy Crow! I had totally forgotten that story. That California guy was mere miles from where I lived in the general southern California area. What a nut!
