A Chest harness would keep you in an upright position even in the case of unconsciousness. A chest harness is a safety device, typically used in conjunction with a seat harness, that provides an additional attachment point for safety when climbing, rappelling, or working at heights. It helps distribute the force of a fall over a larger area and can improve balance, especially when climbing with a backpack or when the hips are not fully developed.
