Your honesty is refreshing. I don't think others are telling the entire truth.

I actually appreciate this being a large guy myself. Nothing is more embarrassing for me then standing in line for hours just to not ride it because of size. Everyone is looking at you, and it’s an awful feeling, but I understand the rules, and it’s my fault.

Two years ago i was nearly 300lbs. I have since lost a LOT of weight but still... I can remember when this was a huge deal. You live in fear of being embarrassed because you can't fit on the rides or feel comfortable if you manage to get the bar down on your seat. Thanks so much for your honesty and allowing yourself to vulnerable in public so that others will be able to avoid that hurt or possibly even the nasty comments some people make because they just don't get it. Wish you all the best. Keep doing what you do.

6ft 310lbs (size 46 waist). i cant fit on hagrids but i fit on velocicoaster. no help needed. loved it 10/10

I am really appreciating this content!! It's one thing to fit but it's something else entirely to know you're going to be uncomfortable or even feeling unsafe.

For all of us who live with fat shaming, real or self-induced, God bless you & thank you for your video content.

You've done really well to lose some weight. Now you have ridden give yourself a break. Keep on your weight loss journey.

Your experience sounds like my experience on RipRide Rocket back in Dec. I was 283 pounds at 5'11" and the restraint just barely clicked. It was a very painful experience. Fearing the same for velocicoaster, I have been working on my weight too. Now down to 249 and dropping, so hopefully I can enjoy both coasters next time I'm at Universal.

My husband was like you somewhat. He is 250lbs with all his weight being in his belly area. He fit but felt uncomfortable. And because his belly was being pushed upwards into his chest, he said it was difficult to breathe at times during the ride. He loved it, but said he probably won't ride again until he loses more weight.

Your honesty and being specific is really, really a gift to many people. Congrats on weight loss journey. Double congrats on helping out other folks to plan and enjoy the park! Plus, it looks like Intamin and Universal did quite a bit of engineering/design for making this more accessible.

Respect helping people out with these videos. I’m not a large person myself, but I know some people would feel embarrassed trying the tester seats or getting to the front of the line and being turned around. Guys like you are probably a huge help ❤

As a fellow plus size coaster enthusiast, you are amazing and thank you for being honest about your experiences. I searched and searched for honest reviews about our home parks before going and didn’t find much but was lucky enough to be able to ride two coasters and I’m working towards lowering my weight to be able to ride the rest. So know you’re not alone!!! ♥️

Congrats on getting to ride! As a plus sized person, I seriously appreciate your thoughts on test seats. No idea when I'll be able to ride, but feeling good about it after seeing how you fit. :D

Im 20 lbs down in 3 months but I still feel like I need to lose more to male sure I will fit. This video is keeping me motivated!

I’m so proud of you man! I’m glad you were able to experience this awesome experience

YOU HAVE DONE SO AMAZING!! I am so happy for you on your weight loss journey. This is such a huge accomplishment..you’re riding the ride you were working towards WOOOO!!!! This deserves a celebration 🎉 congratulations!! Thank you for you’re amazing videos, honesty, and most of all..ALL YOUR HARD WORK 🙌🏼💪🏼🤩

I love this niche of theme park experience and rides in general. I don’t know what kind of weight loss journey you are on, but I’d love to see future videos where you re ride these coasters and dark rides at your goal.

Omg this is the type of information ppl need in the world 🌎 thank you for being so real with us and putting yourself out there to give us as much knowledge about this ride and who can ride ❤️

I love the honesty you put in your videos and that's why I'm subbed to you. You actually have balls to criticize theme parks unlike most theme park youtubers out there.

“If you want to see all of this right here”… Yes, that’s exactly what we are looking for! Thank you for being so open with the reviews

i'm glad you were able to fit on this, and those Intamin's Velocicoaster seats are 100% more comfortable than the ridiculous RMC seats. For those who are reading this and don't know anything about RMC rides, they're known for being intense, but not tall or fat people friendly.

I just love how open and honest you are! 😊 really helps & always watch your videos before my trips! Thank you!

I am not sure what embarrassed me more... when Dueling Dragons added the 'fat boy' seats... or the fact that I needed it. I never had a problem fitting in The Hulk seats. 😎

Words cannot express just how fantastic I think you are for this viedo! The information you have provided for people with larger framed bodies is impeccable. You are holding yourself like a super model. Standing ovation man. Thank you.

Thank you so much for this review and your helpful information. There are so many people who need to know this. I have watched a few other reviews and no one else has addressed this.

So proud of your weight loss ! That's an amazing accomplishment. As far as it being uncomfortable thank u so much for informing everyone. I hope they start making rides more comfortable and inclusive for everyone. You rock !

I appreciate the ones that defend the larger people out there when it comes to rides, but in general everyone knows that rides are not designed for larger people in mind. So when you find ones that are fat friendly then that's a good thing. Sometimes all we can do as larger people is work on our weight so we too can enjoy things in life, which I've been trying myself to do for years.

Was definitely waiting on your review for the test seat to see how I manage on this ride with my weight, But proud of you and your weight lost and happy you got to get on the ride even though you was uncomfortable.

Thank you so much for this! Hope you enjoyed the ride!

so proud of you. My weight is a constant struggle. I originally started losing it to ride Rip Ride Rockit and still had to ride in a big boy seat. Last time I rode hulk in a regular seat and can ride six flags rides now. You keep going you can so this. Love your videos. Was checking all morning for this one.

This review is so refreshing! Thank you for taking the time to actually test the seat and show what it may fit like for another person.

Thank you for being so open and willing to share your experience on the ride. Really appreciate getting to see someone go through the process of the test seats.

Thank you so much for your honesty. Great info. I'm subscribing because of this. Thank you so much. I'm going to look through your other videos to see if you have more videos like this. Truly helps so much! Xoxo Just checked out your other videos and it looks like I hit the jackpot. Woohoo😊 thanks again!!

Thank you for this video. Loved your vulnerability and speaking about issues that plague us bigger theme park enthusiasts. Good luck on your continued journey and appreciate the inspiration!

Thank you for this video! I had some medical issues and gained about 75lbs but LOVE roller coasters and am very worried i wont fit anymore. Appreciate your honesty and explanations. Great work on the weight loss, I'm going through the same journey. I was 6' 290...down to 270 and on my way down to 210 goal! We got this!

Thank you for being so honest! My wife and I are on a weight loss journey but we still have a ways to go. We appreciate you giving us your tips and thoughts. We subscribed and look forward to binge watching your videos!

Just started watching your videos, i am 6'3 360 pounds and hope to lose enough weight to go on those coasters. Your videos have given me hope.

I really appreciate you videos. Thank you for being open and honest. It’s so embarrassing when you get up to the ride and don’t fit or are struggling to fit no matter what the reason for the weight. Thank you for trying them out and for the tips and reviews.

Thank you for your unflinching honest review. It’s the reason I’ve been a long time subscriber and this video is an incredible service to our community.

Hey Adrian, keep working on yourself brother. It will get better and better. I'm happy you rode it. People say it's awesome. Salutations from Anaheim California, Disneyland just opened 2 days ago, we're exited.

I found this EXTREMELY helpful. Thank you so much for your honesty. :)

Thank u for this!!! I cannot describe how much I appreciate this kind of video!! U got a new sub for this 👍❤️

I am a plus sized woman and most of my weight is my stomach and thighs. I was so terrified of not fitting on this ride. I was, also, terrified to fit on this ride because I was scared to ride it. lol I am 5'3" and a size 24 and I did fit and did ride several times. The attendants did help me with the restraints without me asking. I have never tried to lock it myself as they are always there and willing to help me without question. They are great on this ride. I have had issues with the attendants on Forbidden Journey and Gringott's-not very friendly on either ride a lot of times. Thank you for all of your videos. I am hoping you have some on Hershey Park as we will be heading there soon (our home park).

Adrian, I’m so proud of you for getting that green light! Also, I just want you to know how much your ride testing videos help people like me. I lost about 77 lbs since I last visited Universal and I’m going in late September/early October, so I was a bit nervous about this one. Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for sharing this! Very helpful! Your honesty is awesome! 👍❤️😊

Thank you so much for your honesty and thorough explanations. This video is a huge help in helping me feel confident that I will be able to ride as a larger person.

Just want to say thanks. I have never had issues with the seats on rides but I can see that what you are providing is of great help to people who may not be as comfortable as you. Great job, thumbs up and subscribed.

Thank you! First time finding content with this point of view. I appreciate your honest descriptions and suggestions. We have a trip coming up, so I will be checking out all your videos. :)

Thank you so much for this video!! I appreciate the content, the tips to fit, this is so so helpful!!

Thank you so much for doing these. It’s truly so helpful.

I like your honesty as well, and I like that you are not attacking the ride, you're just being real and helping others. I wish you well on your journey for better health and fitness.

Thank you for your transparency! I appreciate you!

Thank you for letting us know about your experience! 💜💜💜

Thank you so much for your video and commentary. This was so insightful.

As a plus size guy 5'11" 330, my comfort park has always been Disneyland since I can still ride 90% of the rides. Recently though I'm struggling on some of my favorites, so this has inspired me to make a change. It's my goal to get my weight down enough so that I can fly to Florida and ride this beast.

I remember the first time I was ever unable to fit on a ride. I felt utterly humiliated. I started to not even try getting on rides to avoid the feeling. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR COURAGE and for what you are doing here. Thank you.

I’m happy you gotten to ride it ❤️😎 🔥🔥 looks freaking awesome!! Keep on pushing man!!

So proud of you Adrian! I definitely am posting this to a Universal plus size rider group on FB so that people will know if they can fit on this ride. After watching I have decided to lose weight for my December trip because I alao carry my weight in my stomach. I definitely don't have any space to lift belly fat lol

Thank you so much for this video. For bigger folks, this is a huge concern when going to the theme parks.

Again, thank you SO much for this video. I am now comforted that I'll get to experience this in two weeks time, and the tip to press down on the side poles for more leverage is pure gold, thanks.

I saw you filming in the locker area, but I didn’t want to interrupt your filming!

Thanks for the honesty and information. I had been holding off going to the park for this ride because I didn’t think I’d fit, but now that I saw you get on I feel much more optimistic. The website says 40” waist and I wear a 46”, but currently the only ride I don’t fit on is Forbidden Journey - every other ride I can get on, even Hagrid’s in the motorcycle seat. Typically older Intamin rides aren’t designed for bigger people like B&M is (I love Mako and the other B&M hyper/giga seats and even get airtime on them - super comfortable even though I’m big). I have been to Cedar Point and rode Millenium and TTD but I weighed a lot less then. I just rode Superman at SFNE (Intamin mega coaster) last week and since I have gained weight that ride was extremely uncomfortable, although I did fit on. The sad news was I could not ride their RMC (Wicked Cyclone) so I know now I need to lose a bit of weight in order to ride Iron Gwazi when it opens. I’m glad to see Intamin has modified their restraints to try to make it a little more accommodating - I also want to go to BG Williamsburg and ride Pantheon too when that opens. I think it all has to do with where you carry your weight. I’m 6’1” and about 285 so I typically just squeeze on most rides, but I’m still inspired to lose a little more. When I was around 250 pre-pandemic, I fit on everything at Universal and Busch Gardens, even the “normal” B&M seats so I could ride back row on Montu, Kumba, and Hulk. Also shout out to Premier Rides - their cars are incredibly accommodating - I can ride Tigris over and over and it’s super comfortable and I can’t wait for Ice Breaker. Anyways my point in all of this is to say that I really can relate and I really appreciate you talking about rides for bigger people. I wish there was more content about this other than just a few Reddit posts where people get fat-shamed. I appreciate that you have no shame in your game, but also that you are motivated to stay healthy and continue to lose weight so that you can get on more rides. It’s inspirational to me and to many other people as well - great work! Take care and I hope to see you out in the parks someday soon!

Thank you! I really appreciate your honesty.

Your willingness to share your experience makes me tear up. I love how sweet and honest you are. I wish you well on your weight loss journey & hope you continue to have a fabulous time in the parks.😊

Thank you so much for this….this is definitely very helpful…also congrats on your journey

I’m so excited for your journey and for the day where you don’t even have to think about fitting into seats and can just enjoy the parks casually and carefree 💜💜

I’m on my way to vacation at Universal and I’ve gained a lot of weight do to health issues… I’m scared that I won’t fit on the rides, but this video and your other ones have given me hope. Thank you SO much for doing this for us!!

I just got weighed when I had to go to Urgent Care. I'm 5'2 and 252 pounds. I'm hoping that whenever I make it back down there I will fit, because I fit on pantheon, but even pantheon was a tight fit for me but that was BEFORE I started eating healthier this year. 💓 thanks for the video!

Back in 2016 my dad couldn't fit in El Toro's restraints, and it sucked because I would always ride those crazy coasters with him (here in Brazil there aren't many coasters). Now he lost about 15kg (~33 pounds) and we're definitely excited to go on Velocicoaster! Keep on your weight loss journey! Great channel!

You are the real MVP. After going to IoA weekly and facing disappointment, I tried your trick in your Hagrid's video and it worked! I was able to ride twice because of you giving me the confidence to try it again. I plan to follow your tips on the Velocicoaster next week. Thank you again for these videos.

Thank you for having all this confidence. I went on the same path as you just to ride the front of a coaster. Don’t stop get it. Well you look great now as well. I recall in Busch Gardens they have row of coaster for bigs guys like us. Thank you so much for this.

There are those of us out here that really admire you for keeping it real AND for being brutally honest about your fit and ride experience. Thanks!

Great video Adrian!!! I'm glad you got to ride!!!

Thank you so much for this! As a big guy this is always such a struggle for me when i go to parks. I really appreciate you doing videos like this so i can better plan my trips!

Congratulations on the weight loss. I was waiting and hoping you got to ride this coaster. Your Vlogs are informative and helpful. I will not be going I don't think my heart can take it at my age. But I still enjoy watching your Vlogs. I wish they had these back in my day. That said, keep doing what your doing and have fun doing it. Can't wait to see more future Vlogs.

Great video and thank you from one big guy to another! I appreciate you! I am subscribed and looking forward to catching up on some of your other content as well! 🤟😎🎸

I found your channel with this video and I appreciate it so much. Great job getting on it!

Thank you very much for these videos! We appreciate you.

Thank you so much for your honesty and being true to yourself Adrian !

I saw a few rides had a notice that guests of certain “body dimensions” may not be accommodated and guests with waists of at least 40” to test test seats. I saw a lot of videos, but most lacked in some of the critical information I needed for my mind to be at ease. Hopefully this will help some people. Waist (belt): 46” Waist (belly button): 51” Chest (no arms): 49” Chest (arms): 56” Thighs (sat): 53” Height: 5’ 9” Weight: 245 Escape from Gringotts: Rode several time. Thighs were a little tight, but not painful in anyway. Forbidden Journey: Rode twice. Arms we a little tight, but didn’t restrict my ability to ride. Hagrid Magical Creatures: Tested both be vehicles. Ride motorbike twice. No discomfort riding the ride, and presumably no issue fitting. Revenge of the Mummy: Rode once. Little tight on the thighs. Rode with no issues worth mentioning: VelociCoaste: Doctor Dooms Freefall Hulk Race through New York Did not ride or attempt to ride Rip Ride Rock It

Thank you for this review! So helpful!

Thanks for the video. While I do have a stomach, I carry a lot of my wait in my legs, so Hagrids was a no go, even though I had ridden the other tight fit coasters. It is a little bit of a relief for me to hear this one is more accommodating in that way.

Great vlog as usual. Love that you try these seats and give a honest opinion. Scary that you felt uncomfortable still though. Keep in your journey and you’ll be comfy x

Yep, I'm gonna lose a few more pounds before even attempting the ride. I'm sure I can get in, but if I'm hurting during the entire thing...I'll pass for now. Very happy you got on and looking forward to your next video.

I'm proud of you and how far you've come! ❤❤❤

It's so true that how you carry your weight makes as much of a difference as your actual weight. My mom carried most of her weight in her stomach, while I'm very "hippy". Even when I was thin, my hips were 3 sizes bigger than my waist & chest. My mom often had trouble fitting in restaurant booths if the tables were fixed in place due to her tummy. I never have that issue but often have trouble fitting in chairs with arms due to the width of my hips which is an issue my mom never had. Similarly, her biggest concern on rides was whether or not the safety bar would go down far enough, whereas my biggest concern is whether or not I'll fit in the seat. Women who are especially busty often have trouble with over-the-shoulder restraints, too. I'm 5'8" & currently 280 lbs, but I've been as heavy as 325. The only place I fit on most rides is Disney. I used to go once a year, but my last visit was 9+ years ago, as they've pretty much priced me out now. Six Flags Over Texas is basically in my backyard, but I haven't been in probably 20 years because the last time I went I just barely fit on most rides, & I'm bigger now. I see videos of people who weigh more than I do saying they fit on rides just fine that I know I either don't fit on or are a very tight squeeze. But again, it's all about weight distribution. I'm glad there are people out there willing to post videos like this to at least provide a frame of reference, though.

Thanks for making this video!!. Good luck on your weight loss journey,I hope you get right where you want to be!

Preciate how you workin to better yourself man, thats good, and i hope your weightloss journey finds you well

So happy you got the chance to ride it!! You should be proud of yourself for your journey ! Keep it up! ♡ you can do it !

I can really appreciate your videos. There was once a time where I had to walk off a ride because I was to big to fit. I will never forget that day and this was many years ago. I am now on my own journey of weight loss because of diabetes and I cant wait to return to the parks one day as I have lost a substantial amount of weight and i'm not stopping.

Great video and will help/assist lots of people 👍. You always say how it is. Good on you on your weight loss journey.

Thanks for posting this! This has been a personal issue especially since pandemic weight. Thank you for addressing it.

You’re doing amazing at your weight loss. Thank you for the excellent video!

I’m planning on riding this soon. Thanks for the video and good luck in your fitness journey.

Thank you for making this video. It is very helpful.

Thank you for making this video I used your trick and I had a great time on it I'm so happy I found your channel

I used to work at Gringotts and my heart would break every time I had to escort someone off of the ride because of the size restrictions, but i'm also someone who is plus size and my biggest fear is not fitting after doing that job continuously. Thank you for posting and filming this

I respect your honesty, coming over from the UK next year. This sort of video really helps me being a big fella.

Thank you for this! Very informative!

Go you ! I'm a big guy too and I travel from Australia to Orlando a few times just to do the parks on my own. Love that place.
