Some spiders have the ability to jump while others do not. So yes, -some- spiders can jump on you.
Some spiders can jump, sort of like fleas, but they usually walk or climb from place to place.

Extremely tall
they jump so hog high because they need to be able to catch their prey

Jumping spiders are a family of spiders that jump (the salticidae family of spiders). 13% of spider species are jumping spiders. For more information get a book on them, visit http://salticidae.org, or check out the informative wikipedia article on jumping spiders.
Jumping spiders can jump horizontally about 25 times their body length. The average jumping spider is about 10mm or less, so that's really not that far (about one foot). That distance is only achieved when they are fleeing something, though. Most regular, non-pressured jumps are just a few centimeters in distance. (source: Biology of Spiders by Rainer Foelix)I'm not sure how high they can jump, though. Can't be that high...
No, spiders can not jump. Yes spiders can jump. It can depend on the spider but most can though. Spiders have large leg muscles like that of a grasshopper, this can help and enable the spider to jump. Spiders aren't known for their jumping abilities though.
Jump when they are at the top or bottom of their webs. They will only hit you when they are in the middle.
