ABSTRACT:
A fall protection lanyard apparatus for use in transferring loads in an elevated environment. The fall protection lanyard apparatus includes first and second load-bearing lanyards, each terminating in a connectable free end. Each lanyard is preferably attached to a common point, such as a load bearing steel O-ring, which in turn is attached to a safety harness which secures the load. The first lanyard incorporates a quick-release mechanism, which, upon activation, results in the separation of the hook and free end portion thereof. The second lanyard incorporates a mechanism for activating the quick-release upon application of a predetermined force thereon.
