I agree - that moment was as powerful as any in the series.

But freeing Jesse, at the cost of his own life, was the ultimate act - and I do not believe he had any expectation of success, just that he would try. After all, he was the smartest guy he knew.

I think you're giving him a bit too much credit. He had maybe a month or two to live. It was more of a "well why the hell not" and a last stand for Walt to go out Scarface style, get vengeance on Hank, and if lucky free the one guy he's fricked over the most.

If Walt's cancer didn't return, wouldn't shock me if he found a way to smuggle himself over to Europe and reform his empire over there and never came back for Jesse. He may have found a way to smuggle money over to his kids and hire mercenaries to kill the Neo-Nazis which may then free Jesse in return, but that's about it.
