Not if the chain were pulled taut enough.
But if you're a link in a ring chain, isn't pulling just tightening it ?
Well, now both seem right. Can we get a physicist consultation? If you pull a rope bridge from both sides, it raises it. But if low enough, that puts you in the water...?
There is a length at which the weight of the rope itself exceeds the force exerted to tighten the rope and not break it. So basically you can have a tight shirter rope, longer saggy rope, or you have 2 ropes.
In that case people would be dismembered, and then drown.
