Humans have 12 pairs of ribs - seven true and five false or floating rib pairs.
Humans have 5 false ribs. Ribs 8-12 are considered false ribs because they do not have a piece of costal cartilage that connects them directly to the sternum. Ribs 11 and 12 are also considered floating ribs because they do not have any costal cartilage and don't connect to the sternum at all.
According to Ross and Wilson Anatomy and Physiology, 2 pairs
Only the true ribs are attached to the sternum the false ribs (3) and the floating ribs (2) are not directly attached. The flalse ribs are attached indirectly via cartillage and the floating ribs are not attached at all.
Humans normally have 12 pairs of ribs, but occasionally there are 2 extra pairs of very short ribs.

RIBS
The cervical vertebrae do not have ribs attached.
The first seven ribs connect directly to the sternum via costal cartilage. These ribs are known as "true ribs" or vertebrosternal ribs.
The lowest two pairs are known as floating ribs.
Look at the ribs on the inside of the belt, if they are cracked or missing small chunks then replace as soon as possible. I usually replace mine every 2 - 3 years.
