I’m a big fella and I fit on the Banshees ride just fine. You must have to be freaking fat not to fit on these rides, not average or even close.


Yep. I'm tall and structurally sound myself, and there's not a ride at disney, universal, lego, seaworld, six flags... that I can't fit in. These people are huge.

I see it all the time, the ride operators are afraid to say anything and they try and try to cram people in. This is how that kid died on the drop, the ride operator was too afraid to tell a fat black kid he couldn't ride, and the ride didn't secure.

When someone is turned away, you can see how MAD they are and they just mouth off the whole time, as if it's world's fault they think all you can eat means all day.

I understand you can’t always accommodate overweight people and it’s their fault they are overweight. But you’re spending lots of money on a new ride in 2023, you’d think they’d be smart enough to not alienate a large portion of their customers. Regardless of your thoughts of fat people, it’s a business failure.


They didn't alinate them since they have a fat line.

We used to have this green tube-shaped slide, called the Bonzai Pipeline, that was covered on the top at White Water near Atlanta when I worked there in high school and one day this fat lady got stuck in there about halfway down and they had to shut the ride down and get the fire department to come in and take the top off the ride off to get her out. She was mostly okay but did have to go to the hospital for a couple days. It was actually pretty sad.

The dream would be a sign that says “If you’re fat, please avoid this ride.”

If you are fat, frick you. I am tired of accommodating you ugly, unhealthy sacks of shite.

We destroyed our economy because you fricks were too scared to go outside without a mask on.

I don't want to ride in those seats anyway. I hate the seats on the Avatar ride. I have no problem sitting in them, but they make me claustrophobic because of the way they clamp down on every part of your body.

I feel like most people are going to want to ride in the "normal" coaster seat anyway, and that's going to be the reason the line for that one seat gets long.

Imagine being a grown arse adult of ANY shape or size, and being this upset over an amusement park ride.


W/how much they charge to get in those places now they better damn well be able to accommodate everyone of every size.

Fatties should have to face this level of shame more often

Who could have guessed that a ride vehicle designed for asians wouldnt work well with non-asians.


Non-Asian here (and will never go to Disney) but do have to order clothes from Asia. I rode a ride at Astroworld once, with a guy who was so tall, a bar grazed him on his head. I'm never worried about my size, but I do worry about people checking the equipment. Like watching your plane land, a couple of guys kick the tires, give a thumbs up, and then you are in the air.
