He had bells attached to his robe behind the veil, as long as they heard the bells, the people knew the priest was still alive. A chord was attached to his garment that would hang out from under the veil that could be used to pull him out if he died.

Is there a parallel between Jesus and the curtain?

If you're referring to the curtain obscuring the Holy of Holies, it's widely held that the meaning behind the curtain tearing was that Christ's death removed the separation between man and God. Rather than having a cleansed and prepared high priest go in and speak to God for them, Christ is now held to be the high priest, through which any person can approach God in prayer.
