It's called a "fireman's carry". You pull up the unconscious person by the arm to a seated position while you drape his arm around the back of your neck and going as low as possible to the side of his trunk. Using leg power, you stand and adjust his weight on your shoulders for balance and proceed to safety or medical aid.
