In as little as 60 seconds a person can bleed to death!
Another Chance Tourniquet can slow blood flow in as little as 5 seconds and stop flow in just 30 seconds

                     To Stop Bleeding
           Place a LIMB tourniquet :
         UPPER SECTION of THIGH OR UPPER ARM
                       at least 2-3 inches ABOVE BLEED                                                    

​Military trains to Apply  a limb Tourniquet as high up on the limb as possible as the way to stop limb bleeding. If bleeding does not stop determine where the bleeding starts and apply pressure to stop it.  Get medical help As Soon as Possible.
If you know where the bleed is coming from and there is only one bleeding site, go 2-3 inches above the bleed.  If bleeding does not stop, put another tourniquet ABOVE the first one.

DO NOT apply a tourniquet:
On the head or neck. 
 over joints or broken bones
or on lower section of arm or leg 

​Most people know that almost any strap, belt, cloth strip can be used as a tourniquet, but unless it is placed in the right place and secured it will not stop bleeding.
