Abstract
Disclosed is a unique spine protector for use with or without protective clothing and in particular, in bomb disposal suits or in sports related activities. The protector is made up of a plurality of overlapping elongate support members having a central recess in the mid-portion thereof such that when an external force is applied to the spine protector, the force exerted is transmitted to the spinal muscles and/or thoracic support structures on either side of the vertebrae while the vertebrae remain minimally loaded. The spine protector is made up of two sizes of support members which overlap each other in mating relationship and are loosely joined so that the spine protector can flex in three dimensions.
