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.

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.
