There are two main reasons people are fascinated with danger:

1) It is an opportunity to face death, and thus our own mortality and attempt to come to terms with it.

2) Dangerous situations release the adrenaline rush of our body's "flight or fight" response which gives us a natural euphoric high. This is the same reason why people are into extreme sports, Roller Coasters and scary movies.
