Larger women riding rides

[Fantasmic]

Just a point, a few of the rides have the ride vehicles situated outside the queue, so you can "test" them before getting in line

(I am a "normal" sized gal and my bf is a "normal" sized guy and we found Primeval Whirl to be a bit squashed, and painful on the ole backs)

I've done Tot with no problem. I used to dislike it when it had the lap bar for the row - as I felt bad for others who were flying high up because they were thin. Now they have individual seat belts so its not a problem - however an inside end might offer a little more room as one can lean over.

I had a tight fit on the following and I'm a 26 yo male at about 375....

Pooh - The bar sticking out makes it difficult to get in and out.
Main Street Train Station - Turnstiles are about 12" wide and thats it! (the smallest ones i know of.) VERY difficult to get through!
Haunted Mansion - Turnstiles are tight, but could get through OK.
Teacups - small hole to get in and out of and the spin wheel is close to my gut.
Indy Raceway - The belt is a tight fit.
Space Mt - ? I hear its a tight fit, but I don't ride it.
Dumbo - ? Can't remember, didn't ride it this trip.
Magic Carpets - Belt was sorta snug, but clipped fine w/ some room.
Dinosaur! - Small seat, but belt fit ok. Extended belt fully, then sat down and fastened.
Test Track - seat is small, but belt in just fine.
Kali River Rapids - hard to have 2 adults in the double seats w/ me and still get the belt on. had to sit alone.
Soarin' - small seat w/ handles on both sides. Belted in OK.
Tower of Terror - small seat like Test Track and Soarin'. Handles on both sides. Got belt on OK.
Star Tours / Body Wars - Tight fit between the arm rests, but belt in OK.
Everest - Bar clicked in fine. Sucked it in for an extra click for a slight fear of coasters. Pretty comfortable fit.
Primeval Whirl - Tight fit w/ lap bar which comes down behind you. Fun ride!
Splash Mt - Sorta difficult to get in a out of the log, but not too bad.

Most theater seats were uncomfortable. Sounds Dangerous, Carousel of Progress, and MuppetVision 3D were the most uncomfortable I can remember. Tough to be a bug, monsters inc, norway, etc have bench seats, so its convenient.

Had no problems with anything else, but still ... being fat stinks!

i don't mind being in my bathing suit in front of people, (I have no one to impress) however I don't much care for the water parks because the innertubes do not really work for my size. I end up laying flat across the tube and that just ain't pretty :lol: or relaxing. I just stick to the pools at the hotel.

Has anyone had any problems on ToT?

My relative had no issues with ToT... in fact, it's her favorite attraction. She didn't mention having any problems with the seatbelts or anything at all. She also has a slightly injured shoulder and that wasn't bothered either.

Now me? I had problems with it but that's because it scared the heebie jeebies out of me :lol:
