The words "racket," "sauntering," and "smirked" impact the paragraph’s overall meaning by suggesting **that the narrator considers the adventure a joke**. The use of these words conveys a light-hearted attitude towards what could be a scary situation, indicating that the narrator is not taking the thrill seriously.
