You know, the sleeping dogs theory.
Could've been a combo of one of those people who are really afraid to fly type of thing and (no offense here) some happy religious thoughts/whatever to keep their mind occupied.
I do recall one of my lovely 'prop job' flights from ALB to EWR where they had to stop the right engine because it kept revving (about 20 minutes from landing), and there were several people who put their hands in the air and you could hear the praying start whilst we had a rather rough (but safe) landing. Followed by many joyful "hallelujah's" and clapping/etc. (I was mostly covered in sweat).
