re: GA teen dies after dirt bike hits wire strung between two trees

I was riding a 4 wheeler down a pipeline in Ruston as a kid in the early 80s and hit a cable someone put up. To this day I still think about how lucky I am that my dad out a gun rack on the four wheeler about a week before. The gun rack was strong enough to cause the cable to come lose from the tree. In Louisiana, a landowner would go to jail for a VERY long time for doing that. VERY long time.

That is a very scary situation but it sounds different than the one that the OP linked. You were in the middle of a pipeline and it sounds like it was aimed for your neck/head. The information that we know so far about the death is not of the same nature.

If you are trespassing and get hurt it should not be the landowners fault
Agreed.
