The correct answer is: a personal fable.

Adolescents who develop a personal fable, engage in risky behaviors because they feel there won't be consequences from their actions. In other words, they think nothing bad could possibly happen to them.

It is a very common behavior, especially for teens around the ages of 11 and 13, because they tend to believe they are special or "unique" individuals. This egocentrism makes them falsely believe that they are indestructible.
