Maybe a generalization about the care free way they do the stunts they do, exibits a "devil-may-care" bad boy attitude that is what's attracting the ladies? Bad boys are bad boys and that will always have a "following" no matter what sport they do. Guys that work on cars/trucks/bikes, that have tattoos and work out are among part of the list of guy things that usually does it for me.
Sometimes it's YOUR defination of what a bad boy is....
