Not worth the risk. I have seen on numerous occasions skydivers or their equipement coming in contact with tailplanes and elevators. Couple this with the magnetic power of the tailrotor to attract anything big or small that comes loose from the helicopter the chances of something very nasty happening are very great indeed.
