Live for a thrill and you get to die for the thrill. This does not make
sense to me at all.

 
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.
