carry somebody in a golden chair

What's the correct expression for when you carry somebody in this

manner? In Sweden it's referred to as carrying that person in a golden chair - but it isn't the kind of expression I've been able to translate via a dictionary. If there are alternative expressions, I'm interested to hear them all, including the connotations (for instance: This is a sports expression, This is a fairy tale word, et cetera.)

Thanks in advance, more personal thanks at a later point.

When used to carry a conscious injured person, as well as at other times, this method may be called the four-hand seat carry

Hmmmm.... "golden chair" sounds better, doesn't it.... kempie, 'your' expression, does it have a paramedic sort of ring to it? (Even if it may be used at other occasions as well.) When you hear it, do you think 'injury?' As a matter of fact that would suit my purposes quite well! But I'm certainly interested in more suggestions. Thanks kempie!

Hi there DaSwede, checked out your link and I think that you'l find that this is a photo from an amature production of "The Ventriloquists Dummy" by the Irish playwrite Pog-Mo-Thoin!

Hiya aidantraffor, are you just having fun (and it was fun) or are you also telling me that this kind of 'chair' IS sometimes called k--- m- a--? (Well it might be!)
