Default Passenger Briefing - One More thing to Mention

Not just passengers. I knew a helicopter pilot who was
hired to fly a newly wed couple from the church/reception to
a honeymoon hide a way. Just as he lifted off to a hover in
the dark parking lot, the wedding photographers snapped a
picture from 50 feet in front of the Bell 47. Those
professional strobes are very bright. Luckily he was able
to close an eye and keep fairly steady until he was able to
fly away.
