I've seen some problems occur when parents take height requirements as a proxy for how scary or psychologically intense a ride is--which it is not, not necessarily. For instance, Dinosaur at Disney's Animal Kingdom has a low height requirement of 40 inches, but a lot of the little kids who are physically safe to go on that ride end up not having a good time on it at all!
@Amrepdude499 Жыл бұрын
This is nowhere more evident than at my home park, Six Flags Magic Mountain. At 42 inches you can get on Ninja. But at 48 the door opens. Gold Rusher, and Revolution are some of the tamer rides in this category. However at 48 inches you are also good for X2, arguably the most intense and scariest ride in the United States. Height requirements aren’t a judge on what a child is ready to do, it’s just the lowest point at which the restraint can hold you securely and safely for the ride.

The hulk coaster's ride requirement still makes me mad, though I understand entirely why it's as it is, because I went to ride with my parents the year I met 54 inches. I was checked at the entrance, we waited nearly 2-3 hours in the queue, and when we got to the loading dock, they loaded my parents into the coaster then checked my height again. This time, I failed by half an inch. Because the coaster was already loaded and apparently needed to get moving, they had me step across the train and wait on the other side, next to the operator, and had to watch for my parents to come back. I was heartbroken. I finally got to ride it the next time we visited years later and it was as awesome as my parents had proclaimed.

From that experience, I understand why those tiny coasters have maximum height requirements. Good work!

Height requirements are tricky but many unfortunately see it as an indicator of what a child should do. It’s not. At my home park (Magic Mountain) at 48 inches you can get on X2 while to do West Coast Racers which is far tamer and honestly good for most families you need to be 54 inches. There’s no way I’d let my child onto X2 before they had a chance to experience some of the tamer coasters which are in the 54” height requirement

Python, Vogelrok and De Vliegende Hollander are the easy 3, just 1.20 and you can go. Joris en de Draak has 1.10 for the middel rows and 1.20 for the back and frond rows. Joris en de Draak is way more intens, but smaller childeren can ride it. Baron 1898 has 1.32 for the 2 seats left and right and 1.40 for the 2 middel seats, these are XL seats with 2 seat belts. A stupid thing that makes quest panic when the see they only have 1 belt XD Max en Morits....... they have 1.00 with an adult and 1.30 for riding allone... try explaning that to a guest by the gates of Python and Joris en de Draak.

When I was a kid and Kings Dominion was under Paramount, Rebel Yell had a 44" minimum height. I panicked and slipped under the restraint. The coaster is now Racer 75 and the minimum height is now 48". Another notable minimum height change was Ice Breaker at SeaWorld Orlando. It opened with Comfort Collars, and the minimum height was raised from 48" to 54", I assume because the Comfort Collars were bashing kids' heads up. With the Comfort Collars removed, they restored the 48" minimum. The world needs more 42" minimum coasters, and more precisely the return of the Arrow Suspended.

Federal law in the US does not allow anyone under 36" or 3 years of age to ride anything except a carousel or ferris wheel. This requirement came from years of study in medicine, child development, insurance claims, chiropractors, and rehabilitation for injury. Its all because of head weight to body weight ratio. Smaller humans have a higher head weight ratio than larger humans, and this is directly linked to age.

When I was a kid and young teen I used to slide my feet part way out of my shoes so my heel was just barely in the shoes when I got near the front of the queue so I could get on the rides with my taller little cousins. Got an extra 2 inches and it worked every single time! 😅 I did once almost fall out of a ride I was actually plenty tall enough to be when I was 16 on purely because I was so skinny. One of those claw things that goes upside down, this one like went all the way to the top and paused so all the momentum that kept you in the seat stopped and you were meant to briefly rest against the shoulder restraints but my shoulders went right through and my knees slipped through and I was clinging on with my hands and feet. It was only like 5 seconds but that was scary af.

Hey man, can you explain how powered coasters work? Like the zamperla powered coaster train. (Example the zamperla powered dragon coaster.)

I'm on!y 5ft (60") I stopped going on some coasters bc even tho I meet the height requirements my head doesn't come up high enough thru some of the over the shoulder harnesses. My head n ears bang back n forth on the sides. It hurts!!! Thankfully my eardrums didn't burst but one time my hearing was muffled for a while from it n my ears are ALWAYS sore on the outside afterwards 😓

I´m just 1.88 m tall but i have in comperison very long legs which unable me to ride some family coaster like for example "Van Helsing" At movie Park or in the same park Bandit. where im just barely able to fit my legs in or in case of van helsing not able at all. In this cases the chase just need to be a little biger so i can put my legs in. really annoying.

What if they lower the mako height requirement to 52 inches but now it has a 54 inch requirement. To change the mako height requirement to 52 inches, they need to add seatbelts on every train and car and seats making mako with 2 restraints which will be a seatbelt and a lapbar

As a 2m tall person it sucks that I am too tall for a lot of different ride types, mainly B&Ms and even some Intamins (basically everything with over the shoulder restraints).

sure, some rides need the height requirement, but what about short people? they could be 15 and still not be tall enough to ride, but they’re body is ready since they are older, that’s what gets me annoyed with some rides height requirements in my opinion.

Sometimes the height restrictions doesn't match the intensity of the ride, like on Troy! It's still perfectly safe for anyone above 1.2m
