Victim Blaming (or victim shaming) is when people blame someone for getting themselves hurt or into a bad situation. Since people have no way to refute the argument that the victim should've taken more precaution they use an invented term like "Victim Blaming".
We can all take more precaution in every dangerous action we engage in - whether that's driving (drive slower), climbing a ladder (have someone hold it), or any activity in which there is a possibility that something can go wrong and result in injury.
The "Victim Blaming" term also insists that the victim suffered through no fault of their own. In other words, the victim is not responsible for anything that happens to them and simply pointing out that more caution should've been exercised makes you a bad person. People who are accused of "victim blaming" are not excusing the behavior the aggressor, which is often misunderstood by people who simply shout "victim blaming" at others.

Person1: That Lion tore my arm off when I was just walking through the jungle minding my own business.
Person2: We'll you shouldn't be walking through the jungle alone without protection. That's dumb.
Person1: You're victim blaming asshole!
Person2: No, I just think it's common sense to not put yourself in danger. Even I don't walk through the jungle alone.
Person1: Victim Blaming!
Person2: I didn't want you to lose your arm, I'm just pointing out the simple fact that, had you been more cautious, you might still have your arm. I only mention it so you and others might be more careful next time.
Person1: Rapist! Bigot! Racist! I hope a lion tears your arm off.
Person2: *Facepalm*
