It's a straw man to pretend that the risk-reward trade-off for every choice is the same. A father with young kids and a stay-at-home wife probably ought not to go skydiving; though driving is a risk, he probably ought to go to work. Men make choices based on potential risks and rewards; the rewards of trespassing are at best intangible, and robben1234 was making the point that the risks can be high.

Anyone with half a brain realizes that there are some risks in going into abandoned buildings. "Don't eat random berries you find" is something most people learn as a toddler.
