My husband is a bigger man and it fit him just fine. I was about 450 at that time but can't wait to go back and get on the rapids now. It will be in the next few years :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4733021266038457129.post-78890493292816232892014-08-22T00:35:26.628-04:002014-08-22T00:35:26.628-04:00Jill.

The molded seating used was VERY tight. I ride once as the only person in my row and it was much more comfortable than when someone was next to meTracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00830161693725323187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4733021266038457129.post-44581853442425098762014-08-21T18:32:18.672-04:002014-08-21T18:32:18.672-04:00Thank you so much for this post.

You are correct, many, many rides and attractions are ok for larger people. Outside of the ones you have listed here, in Hollywood studios we have found both the Muppet Theater and Little Mermaid Musical uncomfortable. We have had no real problems at Epcot or Animal Kingdom that I can think of although I will note that we have not ridden the Mt. Everest Ride at Animal Kingdom. It would be the only one that I would think may have issue for larger people like myself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4733021266038457129.post-6825892766175998972014-08-21T14:17:09.415-04:002014-08-21T14:17:09.415-04:00I rode Seven Dwarves Mine train.

I have heard that a larger person can put one leg in each side and pull the lap down and sit that way. Otherwise the sides of your thighs hurt bad.

Though I might not have rode it anyway, the only thrill rides my stomach can handle are Big Thunder and Splash Mountain. Maybe by next year they'll have a tester vehicle? I'm not sure where on the lap the 13" are because on me it depends (big belly, average thighs, weirdness). <br />Again, thank you so much for this. <br />Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12316358034198770559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4733021266038457129.post-515608565270903022014-08-17T11:23:31.644-04:002014-08-17T11:23:31.644-04:00Thanks for this post.

I am always really anxious about theme parks because of my size and not wanting to limit my kids so, to date, they have only attended with their aunts or grandparents.

To be honest, my weight gain over the last 2 years is why I have stopped going to theme parks! You're addressing a real issue here, and you did it with fun and honestly!
