I’ve known people who did small time smuggling... nothing approaching millions of dollars. The decision is usually economically rational, i.e. they need money for something and the risk of getting caught is low enough that it’s worthwhile.
Of course I imagine people who are knowingly moving millions of dollars either are reckless risk takers or think they can outsmart the weather, law enforcement, mechanics and whatever else can go wrong.

Maybe I'll do it once (good luck quitting) and buy a house or whatever. Odds of getting caught in any one event are on the lower side. If you deal for year, then you have DEA and FBI after you.
