Agreed. "Influencers" who do hyper-risky tricks to gain followers and
make money do nobody any good. They probably inspire other fools to lose
at risky tricks. And as in this case, they trigger public spending to
rescue them from their failures.

For many people, risk is the spice of life. For others, it's something
to be avoided.

Kinda depends on if one understands the risks. I’ll take some risks cycling >and others I’ll pass I tend to avoid jumps beyond just riding off a step
off etc.

Of course it does. Everyone gets to decide for themselves and that's
how it's supposed to be. I never wanted to die in bed, but that's
probably how it's going to be. The older I get, the less I concern
myself with risks, but also, the less physically capable I am to do
the risky stuff.

Yes and we all choose our battles.
One might say Mr Villareal Perez died doing what he loved,
which is not the worst way to go out.
If he retained consciousness about five minutes after his
crash, my bet is that he thought "OK, that was a huge
mistake" rather than "Oh good, I'm going to die from doing
what I loved."
Not all decisions are correct.

I would not have done that or anything of the sort but it
was his decision to make.
