He had trouble, because of the overload and tail wind, getting the tail up for faster acceleration. You could see that he had the stick forward. Once off, he stayed in low ground effect. The bounce would have been much worse if he had tried to climb after liftoff. He did not try to climb until near the wire.

The winner is the person with the most stories when he dies, not the most gold.

Confidence is very important in many missions. I don't think he considered personal minimums.
