It is NOT the US..

In most other places, voluntarily doing stupid crap is the fault of the person doing stupid crap.

Hurting yourself, while doing stupid crap, is generally considered the fault of the do-er.

Not the place where it was done.

A long time ago. before the lawyers took over, the US generally faulted the do-er of stupid stuff. not the venue. Or, society as a whole.

The only suits between Americans and foreigners I’ve followed involved trade disputes. America gets taken to court, usually because the other side claims we’re subsidizing our products which is anti-competitive. I can’t recall any suits that the US won. Of course, it does seem we subsidize a lot of products, especially farm products and aircraft. My guess is an American suing in Jamaca will not win. Also, even if they did win, they wouldn’t get enough to make it worthwhile. Likely a Jamaican jury would say, “The mon be an idiot. He deserve to die.”
