Lots of things to consider about Static Line Jumping from helicopters.

Biggest thing is making sure nothing can get into any of the Rotor Blades (Main and Tail Rotor) or any other moving parts.

Also, making sure nothing on the Jumper can get hung up on anything.

Guarding Reserve and Main Chute deployment mechanisms really take on a new meaning in Helicopters as compared to Airplanes.
