Hello VK1944,


It sounds like you are asking if the Apple Watch would detect hard falls when worn around the neck. The Apple Watch is designed to be worn on your wrist not around the neck, so many features may not work correctly when worn around your neck instead of on your wrist. Check out this link to learn more about fall detection on your Apple Watch.


Use fall detection with Apple Watch


Cheers!
