There is provided an inflatable safety apparatus (10, 10′) which is manually or automatically operated having a compressed gas bottle (17, 20) with an operation rod (25, 54) in combination with an inflatable element (15, 18) which is initially folded upon itself as an open ring and housed in a ribbon-shaped case (13, 26) secured to the user's waist. The inflatable element (15, 18) is connected to the ribbon-shaped case (13, 26) by extensible tapes (27, 60) or ducts (14, 14′, 16, 16′) whose extension allows positioning the inflatable element at the height of the user's armpit.
