Where is the anchor point of the harness held?

The anchor point of the harness is typically located at the belly button. This positioning allows for optimal distribution of forces during a fall or when securing the individual to a safety system. When the anchor point is at the belly button, it keeps the wearer in an upright position, which is crucial for safety and comfort. This placement helps to maintain the body's center of gravity and reduces the risk of inversion or tumbling in the event of a fall. Ensuring that the harness is correctly anchored at this point enhances both the effectiveness of the safety equipment and the overall safety of the individual involved.

In contrast, if the anchor point were at the shoulder, waist, or above the head, it could lead to improper positioning or increased risk of injury during a fall. These alternative anchor points might not provide the same level of stability or safety as the belly button position.
