Jump safe fish?

I think pretty much any fish will jump if they get spooked. I've had a couple clowns jump out while I was sitting here watching tv. My Sailfin blenny jumped out one day and almost landed on the couch. He almost hit the floor about 5 feet from the tank.
 
Believe it or not, I had a dwarf lion that jumped. Any fish has a possibility of jumping out of an open tank.

Same thing happened to me. Poor bugger jumped right out of my QT the first night I brought him home :( Also, my Flame Angel jumped into my over flow last week.
 
My Benghai has never jumped although I have had clowns jump. My tank is inbetween two dog cages. Unfortunately when my clown jumped, he landed on my pitbulls head. My dog woke up to a $25 snack landing on his head. Needless to say, the clown didn't make it.
