Many years ago, I was carried that way by four guys. My friends told me I hallucinated the episode. I didn't and don't think so, though I certainly was mildly concussed at the time. That mode of carry was the one thing I had never seen nor heard of so it is something I doubt I could have internally fabricated. Your post gave me a chance to ask about something I could never find any info on.

I takes a lot of upper body strength to lift someone that high, and even greater four person coordination to hold on to each others shoulders and safely transport a patient. With body armor and a combat load that adds even more weight. I showed the fireman carry to the ANP students since they do not have that protection/hindrance to contend with.Doc Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10165677992180806455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3175646673501752479.post-12807340306752575262009-08-09T08:55:24.675-07:002009-08-09T08:55:24.675-07:00A little OT, but since you mentioned casualty carr...A little OT, but since you mentioned casualty carry, is it possible to carry an unconscious person on the shoulders of four people, without any additional apparatus?
