ABSTRACT:
A body harness for securing to and movement of a victim from harm's way, comprising an elongated belt for extending around the chest of a victim and under his armpits, having a quick lock-quick release buckle to rapidly buckle the ends of the belt together around the victim's chest and to rapidly unbuckle the ends for removal of the harness after the victim has been moved to a safe location so he can be quickly transported to a hospital for observation and treatment, and having an elongated hand grasp loop that is long enough to extend from its connection to the belt around the victim's chest in the direction toward the victim's head to a location beyond the victim's head where the rescuer can feel for, locate and grasp the hand grasp loop to drag the victim to safety. The hand grasp loop is attached to the belt at a diagonal so it extends diagonally in the direction toward the victim's head when the belt is secured around a victim lying on his back.
