foolhardiest

Maximally reckless and bold

Foolhardiest is the superlative of foolhardy—the most recklessly bold or stupidly daring.

Someone foolhardiest among a group takes risks others won't, not from courage but from failure to recognize danger: Even the foolhardiest climbers refused to attempt the summit in those conditions.
