A damping element for a catching carriage for damping the catching impact in the event of a fall of a user from a height includes a first end adapted to be connected to the carriage and a lug disposed at a second end adapted to be connected to a catching belt secured to the user. The damping element is releasably fixed in a non-rectilinear shape by at least one frangible link dimensioned for releasing the damping element from its non-rectilinear shape when a certain load is applied, so that it can damp the catching impact. |
