well you never know, what if that one 1/2 inch is the deciding difference between safe and unsafe? its like having an overpass that says UNDER 10 FEET ONLY, -sure the 9 ft. 11 1/2 in. truck passes through with no problem, but when the 10 ft truck tries to go thru, BAM! -shudda listened to the warning!!:lol:

lol- that example came out way better than i expected it would!

Put yourself in the operations cast member shoes: you are told by your manager not to let someone ride/slide/participate in an attraction that is not the minimum height. You turn the other way and let them. Something happens negatively. Disney WILL get sued and you will be out of work or worse, because you DID NOT follow procedures. Is it worth it? There are design/safety/legal reasons for height restrictions, and they are for everybody including YOU, not everbody BUT me.

amen man..

I agree with the CM's on this one.

Safety Restrictions are there for a reason, so stick to them and don't argue if your kids are a couple of inches short. You'd be the same people who would be mad and thinking law suits if a CM let your kid onto a ride and something happened to them.

was there one? I'll have to go on it again next time it's open. I found the one in the metal door on the screen, as well as a few in the store and one on the moon outside...

Question 1: This is measured with shoes on correct?

Question 2: If yes, what happens if a child comes up with really thick shoes on and barely makes the height requirement? Do you let them on? Measure without shoes?

Question 3: What about tall hair? Do you measure at the skull or top of the hair? Do you let them ride with tall hair, but without they would be under the restriction?


Edit: In my previous post, I wasn't trying to say let the kids through if they weren't the proper height. What I was trying to imply, but didn't, is what would happen in a situation like questions 2 and 3.

am I the only one that agrees with this card, Safety Tip #6:

NO Rob! There's NOTHING worse then seeing a crying child screaming there head off on a ride. I mean- Isn't it obvious to the parents that the kid doesn't want to be there? Well- the card says it all.
