I was rereading a couple of books that were written back in 1978 when John Paul I and John Paul II were selected. It mentioned that an estimated 250,000 people viewed Paul VI as he lay in state. Something like 20 times as many will have viewed John Paul II by the time they shut down the viewing lines.

I was thinking about the same thing. There was just something special about Pope John Paul II.
