Guaranteed I do. Skiing moreso, because I just plain suck on a bike, helmet or no helmet.
Skiing I've taken much larger drops or tried dumber stuff with my helmet than not. I don't wear one for most backcountry days and I notice I'm substantially more cautious.
Everyone might not take more risks with a helmet (or think they don't), and I definitely don't recommend not wearing a helmet because it's 'safer', but it's definitely a valid point.
