Tourniquets save lives. So, y'know, don't leak out, especially not all over the Shipyards

NOTE: improvised tourniquets (i.e. a belt, a rope, a bit of cloth, etc.) DO NOT WORK nearly as well as purpose built ones: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26630092/ and https://www.asc-abstracts.org/abs2016/17-20-myth-busting-the-use-of-makeshift-tourniquets-in-extremity-vascular-trauma/ Please don't post encouraging the use of those when a proper tourniquet costs less than $40USD; I may just delete your comment depending on how I'm feeling.

DISCLAIMER: As stated in the video, I am not a medical professional, of any sort, on your planet. Nothing in this video is meant to be or should be construed as medical advice. You are responsible and liable for your own actions. Be sure to seek training before purchasing and especially before using any medical equipment.

Yes, I know this isn't the usual fare, but it seemed important enough.

I don't get any kickback from any of the links to materiel I've posted below, but I still strongly recommend against buying any of this off Amazon or any equivalent site. Knockoff equipment can fail when you need it the most.
