“Reckless”: use in context explanation

The man is in his house when suddenly he spots 2 interesting girls outside, walking and chatting. He wants to impress them and draw their attention so he decides to sit on the window with his legs hanging out. This is a very dangerous behaviour and he might risk falling out. He thinks he is cool and waves to the girls to say “hi”. But the girls don’t share his enthusiasm.
