He wasn't high, from his own statement. He was just basking in the unfettered beauty of God's Creation (Notice how many times he said "Oh God!" ?)
What gets me is this: in the grand scheme of things, Dude had a MORE APPROPRIATE RESPONSE to such a phenomenon given the ABSOLUTE MIRACLES of 1) Biosphere and 2) his OWN existence within it. His response shows that he was at a point of OPENNESS where he could really SEE the beauty...right out his front window.
And look at all the people that thought it was "funny".
I think it went viral because it TOUCHED something in people. Somewhere deep down, we know we can ALL experience things like this. But it's so "out there" that all people can do is marvel and joke. Hmmm.
Now, think on this. That guy was doing ALL OF THAT on a double rainbow.
Can you even IMAGINE what it would be like to behold God ala beatific vision?
Yeah.

He may have just passed out from it! That's awe.

Lord, strip us of our deadness to the awesome and remind us that we are on holy ground.

(Thought: The observation of the particular human individual, their picture taking, and world-wide sharing of this nature moment--such that we all experience it now--is ITSELF absolutely miraculous and it's very existence is statistically IMPOSSIBLE, all things considered!)
