Q: What is the history of the life preserver ring?
A: The ring design was first posited by Leonardo DaVinci, and was easy to place around one's middle, which is why the rings are sometimes called lifebelts or lifebuoys, among many other names. Sketch depicting a person inside a floating ring, from the drawings of Leonardo DaVinci, c. 1500.
