Why must I be this tall to ride?

- Theme park height requirements are complicated. They aren’t just based on the size of the ride itself, but on a range of factors, from the design of the roller coaster to rider comfort. So, what are these height requirements, why do they exist, and why do they vary so much from ride to ride?

What if your too tall
I’m a ride operator at kings island and a lot of parents get mad at me when I tell them they’re kid isn’t tall enough to ride, wish everybody watched this video before going to amusement parks

Especially when their head JUST grazes the mark
ME TOO except dollywood… they get so angry for no reason

@@trexnewsvideos Yea Ik now I didn’t wanna correct myself again
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!
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.
@@Amrepdude499 Gold Rusher is a 48 inch requirement? That's crazy, knowing that Trailblazer at Hershey is 36
then I see kids on some scary ass rides and I'm like well if a little kid can do it then I can too
@@Amrepdude499 if we are talking intensely I'd argue el Toro in six flags great adventure since that ride literally pushes you around but I haven't rode x2 yet so I can't say if that's worse
Dude that ride traumatized me
As a kid I used to be upset that I wasn't tall enough or thick enough for some ride safety restraints.. A cast member overlooked this when I was around 13 I was a skinny 80 pounds and as tall as a hobbit, I was falling out if the ride Soar at Epcot on Teir/Level 3 and my aunt had to hold me the entire time. No one heard us yelling for help.
Always take these seriously!
i nearly fell out of a flat ride at my school's fair when i was 9 as well. i was barely over the height requirement, and i was extremely underweight for my age and height. it felt like if i let go of the restraint i would've been thrown out of the ride 😬
@@j_0annawhat was the ride model?
@@pokemonfanwsbgalt8574 it was over a decade ago so unfortunately i don't remember much, but i do remember it was called "the dominator". from a quick google it seems to be owned by affordable rides australia now, and has been since the 90s.
Man I wish more people saw this video. I am a ride operator at Legoland Billund and, unfortunately a lot of people don't understand why the height thing is that important. We make no exception, even down to the millimeter, and some people get upset when they cant persuade us to let their child on anyway.
Thanks for the comment, it is a little strange that people don't think height requirements are very important
@@coasterbot unfortunately, as we have seen in great abundance over the last several years, the average person has a complete and fundamental lack of understanding for even the most basic possible scientific concepts
@@protowavetrue , ride operator at Six Flags Over Texas and I have to excourt adult riders from my area (Bugs Bunny Boomtown )
I think if a parent is going with a kid and they are a millimeter too short, if the rollercoaster isn’t very thrilling at all, then that’s the ONLY exception.
@@Galaxia_Moon there's no scientific measurement for "thrilling". it's a good thing that there are no exceptions.
I am a ride operator, and the park I work at has some pretty rough bumper cars so we have signs everywhere explaining why our bumper cars are 42" requirement to ride AT ALL, if a child is any smaller, they could end up getting the safety lap bar smashed into their face.
You would not believe the amount of parents who have been pissed off at me because of the height requirement, even when I explain the potential danger they think I am lying. Its ridiculous. I wish more people could see this video.
Similarly, the old swings ride at my park has a 48" height requirement since the only restraints are loose metal bars held in place by seatbelts.
Of course I always feel bad when I stop the smaller kids from riding, but it's better than risking someone bumping into them or grabbing onto them and sending them flying during the ride.
Those parents are the same type to complain about any injuries if their child was let on despite the danger signs
Kiddie coasters like flight of the hippogriff definitely need a max height. Being a tall person sitting with my tall brother I remember being scared shitless as the lap bar only went a quarter of the way up our legs and no were near our hips due to the netting aspect and demographic. Honestly surprised we were allowed to ride.
I feel you man when I went and felt like I was going to die at 6’3
When i was a kid (like 7) me and my dad was going to take a rollercoaster and we took one ride, then we came back and the staff said he couldn’t go on the ride bc he was too fat… he isn’t that fat but you know not skinny
Maximum height restrictions are in place on some roller coasters in the world. These are usually coasters with headchopper elements, as it's important (obviously) to ensure that the riders don't actually bang their heads.
honey, get up coaster bot posted!

BOI DONT WAKE ME UP OR ELSE YOU GETTIN THE SLIPPER

@@Dalas0130 ok?
😂😂😂
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.
Glad you finally got to go on it later on.
i love how coaster bot is making videos to ease in the general public that are just getting into coasters
Working with the coasters in the efteling can me a nightmare sometimes. We have: 1.00, 1.10, 1.20, 1.30, 1.32, and 1,40 meter for 6 coasters, and the hights of the riders determines there place in the train.
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.
Efteling wants childeren to ride as many coaster as posible, thats were alle these lengts come from, but fore us its not always a farytail
that's really interesting. thanks for the detailed info!
How does that even work? Do you go and messure by hand in doubt? This sounds completely confusing as a guest too.
@@Wolfsschamane most of those rides have these measuring boards near the entrances. Which parents can put their kids next too to see if they can ride it.
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
6:40 - went on steel vengeance with a friend yesterday, and noticed when I got to the front there was metal detectors. They also gave us lockers to put our stuff in for free.
Turned out later I realized why they did that as the ride was far rougher than any other ride at Cedar Point.
Interesting point!
We found SV almost too intense. A truly crazy ride experience.
Interesting.
The craziest one to me is X2 being 48” (1.2m) I just can’t imagine that the kids who can barely ride the arrow mine train gold rusher can also ride X2
Gotta turn the boys into men somehow
It might have been cause I was so scrawny at the time but I remember the only time I rode X2 was when I was finally tall enough to do so (I don't remember if I was just barely 48 or taller) and I ended up terrified because I the restraints felt so loose on me and I genuinely thought I was gonna slip out 😖 Like I said, I may have just been tiny for my height but it's definitely weird that X2 has such a low height requirement!
X2 was the worst ride ever for me. The restraints were having constant issues, to the point where we were stuck in the heat just sitting there for like 10 minutes as they fixed the restraints on the riders behind us
I’m at exactly 52 inches so height requirements are very important to me, and even being exactly the right height doesn’t mean the most comfortable ride…I’m thinking about you Vortex even after all these years, with a side of Chang
I know that maximums are important for safety, but as a tall person, it really sucks. Me being at such a young age and me already not being able to ride a quarter of Intamins really does suck
It does suck but safety comes first
@@coasterbot better to be safe than sorry
Unless you're over 81" you can ride pretty much everything in the U.S except Pantheon at BG.
Very informative video, Harry. Safety is always the number one priority, so having proper height requirements is crucial to keeping everything safe. I tried going on a dragon coaster at a fair with a maximum height of 56 inches. Although the operator let me on, my legs would not fit into the seat. From that experience, I understand why those tiny coasters have maximum height requirements. Good work!
Love your videos man. They helped me psyche myself up for my first, and so far, only experience with roller coasters almost two years ago at Universal for my honeymoon. Can't wait to go back there and to visit new parks.
Thank you, it means a lot! I hope you had a great time at Universal. Which one did you visit? We went to the Orlando one recently and it was awesome
@COASTER BOT Yes!! We went to Orlando too. Velocicoaster was an absolute dream come true. We also thought we were gonna be there too early in the season to make Halloween Horror Nights, but thankfully, we were wrong. Got to enjoy the Beetlejuice house thoroughly.
@@coasterbotThe worst country in the world is Luxembourg.
Always a fantabulous day when Coaster Bot uploads!
Thank you for this video. As a coaster op myself, it’s sometimes difficult for guests to understand the safety protocols that make up the height requirements.
love the content ❤❤❤
Love these informative videos👍🏽
Thank you 😊
Height requirements are really important for people for what height can or cannot ride! I remember on my first roller coaster ride, Vapor Trail, I was 3 feet tall, which means I had to ride with an adult since you have to be 7 years of age and 44 inches to ride. I was also 3 at the time. I used to ride on some of the kiddie coasters when I was younger, now that I'm 5 foot 8 inches, I don't ride on them anymore. I just ride on the bigger roller coasters now. Thank you so much for this great video of learning about height on a roller coaster!
Iron Dragon's height requirement used to be only 46". They seem to have changed it recently. I was a tall child in the '90s (rode Magnum at 48" at 6 years old), and Iron Dragon used to be my favorite ride.
I've hit my fingers on a crossbar just before reentering the station house on the Cedar Creek Mine Ride. The following year there was padding on that board. I hit my fingers again on it. The season after that the board was no longer there. The interesting things is I never told an employee or complained about it. The first time stung my fingers while the second time with the padding didn't.
I’ve actually never really had height restrictions get in my way because many of the rides I wasn’t tall enough for I had no intentions of going on them anyway, of course, that changed once I was tall enough and, funny story, there was one coaster that had a minimum height of 52” instead of 54 and there was one time we went to the park and I was tall enough for that one coaster but not the rest, and my parents kept encouraging me to go on it but I was too scared. Now when I think back to that moment I wish I had went on it
1:41 is in 'Plopsaland' the atraction is called ' De Draak'. Plopsaland is a Belguim amusement park.
3:04 is in 'Plopsaland' too the atraction is called 'Tommorowland'.
3:32 is in 'Plopsaland too the atraction is called 'Tommorowland'. Tommorowland is the newest rollercoaster build and it is tye first rollercoaster that goes upside down, plays music and the seats are turning all the time.
Nothing but bangers from the man the myth the legend Coaster Bot
I think you should make a video about the new coaster at Liseberg: Luna, which is a boomerang coaster on top of the mountain at Liseberg
It’s also similar in dividing weight with riders. Most fair rides mostly do this like Twister, Musik Express- ski lift and Cyclone. They sit the biggest person on the side on where the biggest force is at. It’s to keep younger and lighter people from being crushed by force from the other person and being thrown out.
Edit: I had a typo
I remember being a little kid and sitting on the wrong side of my very tall father on one of those once. Never made that mistake again!

NEW COASTER BOT VIDEOOOOO
In the german Costerfriends forum was a discussion a few weeks ago where some people just couldn't understand why some rides are possible for kids and some other, seemingly more harmless rides, not (based on height). I shared this video there, so maybe they will understand now and you will get some new followers. :)
The fact that arrow mine trains and RMC’s have the same height requirement
it's hilarious to see tiny kids on rides like ArieForce One, because well it's very intese and funny to see people ride who don't know what they're getting into 😆
its a good day when coaster bot uploads
Its crazy how much more intense rides felt when I was really little, I can't imagine being able to get on a giga coaster when I was only like 4 feet tall lol. Even the kiddy coasters felt like insanity back then
I was only able to ride Kennywood's Laser Loop during it's last season thanks to a handful of napkins in my shoes.
very cool!
I feel better about the maximum height requirement now, I thought it was the max height before you get decapitated 😂
I'm not sure many people would ride roller coasters if that were true! Ha ha 😂
lots of walibi shots. i love it
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.
Then you come to water parks where say they might force guests under 48" (1.2 m) to wear a life jacket in the wave pool. Because height definitely corresponds to swimming ability...
There was a ride i went on, and the requirement was about 48 inches. I got on the ride and i already felt like the restraint was too big for me. Nothing bad happened, but i just avoided the ride anytime i went back to the park. That was probably the first ride that i never felt thrill on. They eventually increased it to 54 inches, and then put it back at 48..
Do you have any insight on why they changed the height requirement for Ice Breaker at SeaWorld Orlando for 48" to 54" to 48"?
Were the comfort collars hurting shorter riders?
Yes. I think shorter riders were hitting their heads/faces on the buckle of the comfort collars.
@@ElectriKong- Raising the height limit on a family coaster was a real galaxy brain decision. The comfort collars don't actually do anything in the way of safety, they just make inversions less intense, and are an optional add-on for Premier Rides coasters. Glad they realized they were shutting out a good percentage of their target audience and ditched the comfort collars.
At the risk of putting some people off of roller coasters entirely, I feel like some parents need to read stories about people thrown or almost thrown out of coasters for not having a properly fitting restraint cause if I had a kid, you would NEVER catch me fussing at an operator to let little 46in Timmy onto the Shorts Shitter 2000 ride with a 48in requirement. You go to amusement parks to have fun, not fear for your kid's life.
The height restrictions are there for everyone's safety. It's not safe to have a child under the restriction ride the roller coaster!
@@coasterbotI rode veliciraptor at IMG and the requirement is 130cm
At 79", the maximum height requirement is one of my biggest theme park fears. I already know there's quite a few rides I can't get on around the world, but I'm going to Orlando soon and I really hope none of the coasters at Universal have a maximum height below mine. I heard Rip Ride Rockit's limit is exactly 79", and well, that's the one I'm worried about.
Update: Went to Magic Mountain, and the Wonder Woman ride wasn't too nice on my shoulders. Most of the other rides with over-the-shoulder restraints were fine, just that one felt a bit bad. There's plenty of good rides that have simple lapbars there, too bad most of them were closed because Six Flags.
The Wonder Woman ride is the new one right? The restraints on that one don't seem the most comfortable. It's a shame most of the other lap-bar rides were closed for you!
@@coasterbot Yeah, it is. I will probably go on it again in the future, though, unlike Viper, which hurt my shoulders so bad I vowed to never get on it again.
TLDR: Because the manufacturer says that’s how tall you need to be, to be safe- repeated in every possible variation for 12 minutes.
A surprising amount of rollercoasters also have a height limit, but it’s usually not stated.
Hey great video! Just wondering what ride is in the thumbnail of the video?
Hello There, this is a great Video and it was interesting to hear about the impact that varying height resitrctions have in terms of accessbility and the overall g-forces that people of specific target audiences can enjoy throughout. Thank you for producing this and what were the different rides and attractions used in this Video? Keep up the good work! Cheers Peter :)
I'm on the taller side (6'2). The only thing that worries me is that I'm just on the line of almost too tall. For example, I can ride every coaster, but I absolutely must not raise my arms. For example, at a certain ride at Orlando's Island's of adventure (I believe velociraptor) there is a ride that I was allowed to ride, but when we went past a certain structure where if I hadn't taken my hands down in time, it would have ripped my arms off.
Worried I'll one day encounter a ride I'm too tall for
I'm hoping to visit Japan in about a year and a half. I'm very worried about Steel Dragon 2000 - it has a height limit of 6ft. Wearing shoes I'm probably 3 inches above that...
@@coasterbot Sean Flaharty said he didn't have a problem with it a few years back though he's over 6 feet tall as well
I will pray to the coaster gods for the same experience then!

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.
Lol that hulk one was not me when I was a kid😂 I cried when I couldn’t ride it
Unfortunately this is exactly why I never got to ride Mr Freeze or Batman while dad was alive.
I did get to ride Flashback after it was moved to St Louis as well as The Boss, American Thunder, and Screaming Eagle at Six Flags St Louis because the ride operators were lenient there and didn't accurately measure me.
when i was 4 i went to a big roller coaster in canobie lake
I'm 177.8 cm tall I'm like 5'10 and 17 years old so i can do it on the rides if i want
At 6'4", I can't get on some of my favorite rides anymore. I have the opposite problem of most.
I remember when my cousin was little he wore a turban and then they allowed him in ride without the turban he would be too short
Hey man, can you explain how powered coasters work?
Like the zamperla powered coaster train.
(Example the zamperla powered dragon coaster.)
Great suggestion, I'll make a note!
I was a pretty tall 9 year old, rode the hulk's rollercoaster in universal studios, i DO NOT regret it! loved the experience
How could you ride it at 9, my 16 year old sisters were too scared😅😅😅
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
7:51 the same thing happened to Baron 1898 in the Efteling. When it opened the hight requirement was 1,40 meters, and at that time I was just 2 cm too short and very disappointed that I couldn't ride. But it was changed to 1,32 meters one or two years ago which I think is funny. 10 yo me would have liked it to be 1,32 from the beginning
An that's interesting to hear! Shame it wasn't lower when you were younger
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).
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.
i used to stuff my shoes in order to get on rides at alton towers. never got caught
I remember when I was 10, I wasn’t quite tall enough to ride the 1.4m height requirement rides at Thorpe park, so my Mum bought me height boosting insoles so I could ride them for the first time. That was the best day 😂
i had to do this in disney paris for space mountain when i was 9 as that was 1.4.... but id already ridden nemesis when i was 8... its all in the shoe, thats why girls that wear high heals always got to go on as was never told to take them off.... even though they would then take them off in the station....
I never had to do this as I was well over 1.4m by the time I was 8
this is a great way to get permanently banned from a park. do not do this, ever
@@protowave don’t be so boring
@@aaronlewis9577 So your saying that your pleasure is more important than safety?
I found out last time I went to Great America that I’m 1 inch under the maximum height to ride the Joker. I’m 6’3”, 75 inches. 76 inches is the max
I was able to ride The Smiler at just 8 (I was a tall kid).
Matt B I was a tall kid, too. I was five foot in third grade and I was 54 inches by the end of first grade.
@@camikelly2356 Cool bro
As a Dutch man, I am more than happy because I can go on any ride.
nordic countries say the height reguirments in cm
Is there also a minium and maximum weight limit?
Yeah theres a maximum most off the times its 200cm or 210 i think im 190cm and i had some problems in some rides with my legs
on the new intamins the max height is 195 and i cant ride them bc i am taller but i dont think there is a weight limit. but if you dont fit in the seat you cant ride obviusly
When is vote coaster opening?
for some reason troy a wooden coaster i rid was 1.2 meter requirement my little brother almost went on but it goes like 30 meters up and down really steep and goes 90kmph im sure he would have hated it
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
So... what about weight requirements? I can imagine a very skinny but tall person being able to slip between the restraints, or a particularly heavy person upset the balance?
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.
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 woke up when he uploaded
Omg I went on tron it's just the best it was so good I went on it 3 times it's in Disney world
and then parents get all pissed off why they're little five-year-old isn't allowed to ride Incredible Hulk, even though they paid a bunch of money to get in
sorry that they care about your kids safety more than you do
And with all the guidance and reasoning around height restrictions, some parents still insist that their below height child, should be allowed to ride, Doh!
2:49 BARON VAN DE EFTELINGGG
My friends little brother can ride railblazer at CGA but not patriot at the same park
Interesting!
Tallest height requirement I've ever seen is 1.5m, for the enso seat on icon at blackpool pleasure beach! I saw that in the line and did a double take, I've never seen one above 1.4.
That's a good shout, I forgot the Enso seat has a higher requirement
You forgot to mention Rock n Roller Coaster's minimum height requirement
I am 38 years old. And i am a male. And i am 60 inches tall. Or 5'0 feet tall. Or 152.4 centimeters Tall. So i am tall enough to ride any rides safely.
This makes me curious whether a person with dwarfism (or any adult who doesn't meet the height requirement) would be allowed to ride or not
When I was 11 I went on hulk and velocicoaster
Can adults below height requirements handle the G-forces?
Great question! I'm honestly not too sure. Sorry
When does the Vote Coasters open?
Vote Coasters is now open! Head to our website to take part - coasterbot.com
Was hoping for a Hersheypark reference, who instead of just stating their height requirement in inches, code them via Hershey candy.
I remember when I was 9-10 or so, I was at kings dominion and wanted to ride shockwave, their old togo standup. I was 1 or so inches off the minimum height requirement, but the ride operator that day said it was cool and I ended up riding a togo standup whilst being too short to ride it. In hindsight I'm surprised I didn't fall out.
You could wriggle out of those but weren't going anywhere if you didn't want to.
Even though I'm under the maximum height, my torso is soo long that I haven't been allowed to ride on a lot of rides :(
That sucks, sorry!
My girlfriend and I are trying to plan a vacation this summer and we’re trying to decide between cedar point, Disney world, and universal. Please give your opinion below if you’ve been! And coaster bot if you could give your opinion I would appreciate it too!
I recently went to Orlando, to do Disney Work, Universal Studios, Busch Gardens Tampa and SeaWorld Orlando. We had a blast! If you like roller coasters then there's a lot of amazing stuff at the Orlando parks outside of Disney. If you like immersive theme parks, Disney is definitely the place to go!
@@coasterbot thank you !
If you want some of the most thrilling coasters Cedar Point but if you want more theming and immersion Disney and Universal.
If you’re doing CP, you should drive down to Kings Island too, as that’s also a great park with some amazing coasters. CP will be a whole lot cheaper than Disney as well.
If you want the individual best ride go to Cedar Point but the best park is definitely Universal (Florida, obviously). and some people say that JW Velocicoaster is better than Steel Vengeance
I rode tron its really fun I recommend
That's awesome!
I can go on almost all those :)
0:35 spent like 3 mins laughing so hardd the only time ive heard of that silly one was on the SEXYPEDIA istg
tumblr has ruined me its a ROLLERCOASTER 😭😭
Love being 204cm and having most attractions set a maximum height for 2m.
im 7 but i just love rolercoasters
I watched this video unironically just after i came back home from alton towers
That's awesome, I hope you had a great time!
I really want to go on the smiler but im only 1.3 meters tall
Hopefully you'll be tall enough soon!
i feel stupid that i have to search inches to feet, since I'm used to feet for peoples height and stuff
