Bulls make money, bears make money, pigs get slaughtered. Usually it's retail investors who end up getting slaughtered.
Even people going deeply into risky bets usually have a "barbell" strategy where they'll rebalance from the high risk high growth to low risk low growth so they can see growth but in a downturn they aren't facing huge losses.
