If anyone is a skier here they would know this happens every single time a high-profile person dies in a ski accident.
However, for those saying "we should have a helmet law it keeps you safe" do you really want the government telling you how to protect yourself from yourself? Do I need the government to tell me that I must carry my scissors with the point down so I don't trip on it?
Honestly, wearing a helmet does not prevent you from injuring others. Seat belt laws make sense, since if you fly out of the car you can't control it afterwards and may injur others. Helmet laws do not make sense since there is no protection or advantage for anyone but yourself.
Now, if people want to wear one we aren't stopping them, but if they want to risk themselves and themselves only I won't stop them either. Personally, I only wear a helmet while doing tricks on jumps and rails. But I'll ski the hardest trail I can find without wearing a helmet.
