The beam spreads out as it gets further away, so if it did somehow find its way back to me, it would so spread out that I wouldn’t be able to see it (or it wouldn’t be visible on the back of my head)
If you fired a laser (that was powerful enough not to spread out too much) forward it wouldn’t travel round the world and hit you on the head because gravity doesn’t bend it. It would exit the atmosphere on a tangent.
