You are responsible for ensuring your landing is clear before hucking off a jump, even if it is a blind landing. On jumps like these, it is best to ride in a pack and have a spotter.
This happened to me at one time -- I was scooting past the landing for a jump and stacked it. The spotter called to the other guy to stop, but he didn't. Of course, I thought the spotter was yelling at me to stop, so I did. Damn near nearly hit me.

I see a lot of dumb things on the slopes though. I wear a helmet not out of fear that I will crash into someone/something, but that someone will hit me.
Personally, I wear a helmet out of fear that I'll kick myself in the back of the head again...
