Not to mention he died for Peri, who was very much a flailer (though I do like her). Though god knows how he thought she'd get off that planet.
He's always had a thing for risking it all for the companions without knowing quite how that will turn out (think of the Fourth Doctor revealing the Daleks' weaknesses in Genesis of the Daleks rather than see them suffer; granted he manages to destroy the tape but he has no idea if he will manage to do that when he tells all).
