Is there some country that young men don't do stupid, dangerous shit because an adrenaline rush feels good and their underdeveloped minds know they're invincible?

We are one of the few states without any outlet of this type whatsoever.

The guys getting hurt riding are the same guys getting rescued when they dump personal water craft like sea doos. If they had money theyd be sky diving. If they felt particularly patriotic they'd be marines.

This is a common thread among young people and men in particular and they need an outlet for it. If there's not a safe way to chase this feeling they'll do it in unsafe ways, just like everywhere in the world since the beginning of humanity

If not riding then climbing, or surfing, or the service, or fighting, or football, or drugs, or skiing, or banging.

The difference is the dangerous shit white kids do is OK but the dangerous shit black kids do is terrible. If you're white you go to yawgoo if you're brown you ride the streets.
