No offense, but the majority of people are able to fit in these rides. IMO, i don’t think any rides should have bigger seats because it should be like motivation for people to lose the weight so they can go ride their favorite roller coaster. Also, if they make the seats bigger and there happens to be no big people in line, what are they supposed to do, just leave the seat empty?

I was placed in the larger row for Hulk and was told the motorcycle seat was the way to go instead of sidecar for Hagrids by employee. Most rides are more accommodating for taller guests than heavier.

Just as a rule of thumb, about 300 lbs will be the upper limit for most roller coasters; lower if they likewise have lower height requirements. I know it sucks for bigger people, but with more intense rides, restraint systems must be designed so that even a completely limp or unconscious person cannot fall out, regardless of forces. This tends to put an upper constraint on the design.

proportions come into play too. i’m around 220 pounds and when i visited some theme parks this year down under, i had trouble getting the lap bars down on the majority of rides due to my weight being in my hips and thighs. much larger people managed to ride those same attractions but, fat can be distributed differently and in my case, it didn’t go in my favour.... i’ve had the most trouble with drop towers, but then again i’ve seen skinny people and average sized people struggle with drop tower seating too ! height and weight limits are important for visitor safety but how are drop towers designed with the worst fitting seats i’ve ever seen :’-]

A bit late to the party but I wanted to share my experience on Rip Ride Rock-It: I'm roughly 315lbs 6' 2", and a lot of my weight is in my thighs which makes things interesting for some rides. Rides like Forbidden Journey and VelociCoaster, where the restraints come against your gut, I have no major issues on. However, rides where the restraint goes on my lap or somehow hits my thighs is where I struggle. As of now, I cannot ride Hagrids and Rip Ride Rock-It is... interesting. For Rip Ride Rock-It, I used the test seats and I got a green light on the row 3 seats (the one with the red bar and more belly room), and did not get a green light on the row 4 seats. So I went to ride, asked for row 3, and when I pulled it down it was very obvious that I would not fit (the restraint hit the middle of my left thigh as it came down, not even close). They had me wait for another train where I was placed in row 4, and I was somehow able to fit (albeit very very tight with a lot of help from the crew). I went back a few days later, asked for row 4, but this time they couldn't get it closed, and asked me to leave. So really for Rip Ride Rock-It, the test seats just can't be trusted I guess. If I get a green light and don't fit, while also getting a red light when I can fit, that just shows the test seats are not accurate.

In case this can help someone here is my experience. I am 5’10” and carry most of my weight in my legs, hips, stomach. I visited universal at both 250lbs and 300lbs. Rip Ride Rocket 250lbs: No issues on either seat. 300lbs: Green light on one of the seats. The Mummy: No issues. Ask for row 4 if you want more space. Gringotts: same as the mummy. No issues. Ask for the back row for more space. The Hulk 250lbs: no issues 300lbs: more comfortable in the modified seats. The sides of the seats can squeeze into your hips and be uncomfortable, but it’s a short ride. Rip Saw Falls 250lbs: I was able to fit, but I was incredibly uncomfortable with the seating arrangement. 300lbs: N/A Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey 250lbs: no issues 300lbs: sit on the edge, not the middle. I had a friend help push the restraint down an extra click or two. Hagrid’s Motorbike 250lbs: N/A 300lbs: This is a tight fit, but the ride is definitely worth it. I could not fit in the sidecar seat. I was only able to ride the motorbike. I was right on the edge of being able to ride, as I had to really push the lapbar down. Out of the 8 times I rode this, one ride attendant was very rude to me and did force me to get off, but I was able to try again immediately and was able to ride. It seems that some of the seats are tighter than others. To get the bar where it needs to be, sit up straight in the seat with your butt pushed back as far as possible, pull the lapbar down. To get the lapbar down more, with your palms facing up, grab the handlebars and using that leverage, push the lapbar down using your elbows. The majority of the employees are nice about it, so don’t be afraid to try out the ride. Occasionally you will get a rude employee. Or sometimes they will ask you before you get on the ride “have you been on this before?” Which is code for “you look like you are on the heavy side, maybe you should try the test.” But, if you are planning a trip and you are worried about the ride seats, don’t worry too much. There are still rides at Universal that anyone can ride. And you can still have fun even if you can’t fit on some of them.

Just wanted to say that I feel for you and thank you for showing this. Five years ago I went on a family vacation to IOA and Universal. Held up the Harry Potter ride because I couldn’t fit in the seat. I had ridden it just two years earlier with no issue. My kids felt sorry for me and the issue came up again at Six Flags is CA a few years later. Riding coasters with my kids was one of the greatest joys for me. I am 300 now and looking to lose 50-75 so I can ride coasters again. Although, I’ve never had any issues with any Disney attraction. And yes, strangers that ride in my row on Jurassic Park freak the hell out when the lap bar stops.

I have compassion for everyone. Having said that though, my daughter and I went to Universal in May and will be returning again soon for HHN. My daughter is petite and on a few rides, was kind of worried that the bar would not keep her in the ride because some folks sitting in the same row were all overweight, causing the bar to not come down as far as needed for her, because of the difference in size. That is a concern.

When I went there years ago, I was told that a certain row on Revenge of the Mummy had larger seats. So I managed to barely fit. I don’t know if that’s still true.

I am 5'11", 48" waist, about 300. I greatly appreciate you doing this. It was depressing not to be able to do the HP Forbidden Journey because of the tight seats, and even though I was able to do Gringott's that little "fin" in the seat was pushing into my balls the whole time. Not fun.

This is the perfect time for Universal & Disney's "Flight of Passage" to put in bigger seats. While weight loss to stay healthy is always a good thing, it wouldn't hurt them to put in bigget seats on these rides. People spend big bucks for these expensive vacations....and then some cant enjoy the most popular rides. My son has this issue and Ive watched parents unable to ride with their kids. Very sad and disappointing.

I was about 215 when I visited last. It wasn't so much the height or weight that was the problem. Both Rip Ride Rocket and The Mummy are not generally comfortable for...how do I put this...men.

@ LoZo below, thinks that Universal should discriminate against large people and remove all ride accommodations for them. And she doesn't think it's hateful. Their hateful comments are included in replies to J Storm, below.

I wish universal made their rides more plus size friendly but it is what it is. I've ridden RRR, Mummy, & Fallon in the past but I can't anymore. I still haven't ridden Gringotts but I'm not a harry potter fan so I don't really mind but maybe one day...

Thank you so much for making videos like this. I am a roller coaster lover but also someone with a thyroid issue who wildly yo-yos around 300 and its so frustrating not to mention embarrassing to get to a park and not being able to do anything! I am also 5'5" but...a little more hippy than you. Thank you again!

What's your weight loss secret? I too am trying to loose weight, and do it without my husband knowing that he's on a diet. Because he doesn't like to diet. But me I not only want to loose weight but tone up and get healthy because I have a grandson that I want to run around with one day and ride some rides with at the amusement parks, but being heavy isn't working.

Height limit on Hollywood Rockit is 6'6-6'7 so wear thin soled shoes and try to slouch down when you get to the front of the line so the ride operators don't measure you. Other than that maybe slim down a bit but you should be fine since 325 isn't that overweight at 6'7

Sad but true... The seats look very uncomfortable...... They want you molded in place..... Got give it to them though every corner there is a treat stand. Here eat all you want gives us more money and less liability....

I'm 6ft 4 320 lbs and after waiting in line for two hours for Escape from Gringotz with my kids and family found out I couldn't fit in the ride. this is absolute bs and anyone defending it couldn't have a large person row are idiots. the bar hit my belly and my shins and I was told I couldn't ride it. absolute nonsense.

That Jimmy Fallon matchstick box of a seat is Ridiculous. There's NO reason for that being designed the way it is. The has been the most uncomfortable and needlessly narrow plywood bench absurdity until the Secret Life of Pets seats that you just covered. Fail fail fail.

I'm 6'5 tall overweight and came back from Florida to my country 🇧🇷 very happy 😁 cuz I fit in all these rides. In my country I don't fit in all local famous amusement parks attractions. I came back with the impression that they thought about the fat people when they designed these rides

I think they are purposely designed to keep larger riders off to have less stress and wear on the equipment. Sorry to be blunt but its how I see it and I am an engineer.
