Not that I am aware of. You raise the lever a bit, push the cyclic forwards a bit. It should be moving by now, if not... Oops, parking brake off!
Maybe you are thinking of the guy who thought the parking brake was like the one on his car, the lever hinged at the back, on his left side. Give it a good pull... Wow!, why has the ground disappeared?
