Training manikin support

A support for a manikin comprising:

• (a) first and second opposed extension members when normally positioned cooperating to form a cradling surface to support the manikin;
• (b) a base member connector for connecting the extension members to a base member;
• (c) the first extension member biased in an inward direction toward the second extension member to return to its normal position and moveable from its normal position in an outward direction away from the second extension member upon application of a pre-determined force on the first extension member;
• (d) the second extension member being elongated and comprising an outer surface of continuous substantially smooth contour to minimizing the possibility that the movement of the manikin will be interfered with through contact with the second extension member when the manikin is moved with respect to the cradling surface;
• wherein when the manikin is supported by the cradling surface the manikin may be moved in an outward direction on movement of the first extension member in the outward direction on application of the pre-determined force.
