I see your point and I'm not trying to be sexist. But I think a lot of girls don't get the danger.

A good friend of mine who is a girl won't get on an ATV or any Motorcycle. She was in a back ATV crash when she was 12 and won't touch one and she hates them.

However she gets guys all the time trying to get her on a bike. They tell her things like "It'll be fun, You won't get hurt, You can trust me I'm a good rider, I won't wreck, I do wheelies all the time, etc". I told her one time to tell the guy she would if he let her wear a jacket. He sent back to her "It's much more fun in shorts and t-shirts. It's hot in a jacket".

Which she has had a back ATV experience and learned a lesson. Other girls haven't and would fall for some guys BS.

The girl in the OP's video I'm sure is well aware of the danger and just a thrill seeker.
