    Please, no belts. Something that can be cut with scissors, and have said scissors on hand. Limbs (including heads) swell when cut-off from blood supply. Something that requires some degree of looseness to remove, like a belt, should never be used to restrain a limb, unless it’s being used as a tourniquet.

      To add: get some cheap trauma shears. They work better than normal scissors for cutting through stuff, and could handle a normal belt pretty handily (if that’s your thing, still shouldn’t use one tho)
