Hello I work at poltergeist at six flags and i wanted to say that if you sit in the back and you’re plus sized your more likely to be able to get your seatbelt buckled because not all seatbelts are the same length!
Also love this video
I really appreciate you doing this for us fellow big guys man, I knwo it sucks to walk around a hot ass park, waiting in line just to try a seat you know you probably wont make just to show us. Hats off to you man
Thank you so much
Not to be negative at all but years ago I was about 275 and went to universal studios in Orlando. I could only ride certain rides in the big boy seats. I got home and said something has to change because I love rides especially roller coasters. I then proceeded to lose 80 pounds in 10 months. Great content of a beautiful park.
The ride that someone died on at icon park in Orlando wasn’t a sky screamer it was the drop tower
Having a seat at the entrance to each ride is awesome. Being able to find out if you will or will not fit in a seat on the ride before entering the queue is very helpful.
I am 6'3" and I could fit on every ride when I was at 275lbs. Once I pushed 300 lbs, I could no longer ride Poltergeist, Iron Rattler, Wonder Woman, and most coasters except for Batman. My chest was too thick and wouldn't allow the bars to lock into place. I was part of a coaster group and got to enjoy the rides for about 3 or 4 years before I couldn't get on anything much anymore and stopped participating in the group. It gets harder for some to maintain their weight past a certain age.
I do wish more parks would offer better seating for big and tall people. You don't necessarily have to be fat to not fit. You can also be in shape and not fit. Parks could also offer alternative healthy foods to eat rather than the standard junk foods that make people fat...and not charge $10 for water.
I'm going with some friends to six flags soon and I hate being turned away at rides for my size. Thank you for helping fellow food enthusiasts with your fat tests! 😂❤
I know you get told this a lot but you’re so awesome for doing this. It’s made me feel so much better about just TRYING things whether or not it’s a disaster, and I’m not embarrassed about trying test seats now! I’m in the UK so will probably not get to visit most of these parks but Six Flags looks awesome
The cliffhanger has larger seats in certain rows however the demo seat outside the ride is not a demo of a larger seat...
as a texan we are so sorry for the heat ! love your channel !
Until two days ago I lived there for 11 year so I understand. I’m trading it for Florida heat.
I’m addicted to these videos
I’m going in June and I have extreme roller coaster phobia. Knowing you show us how the seats look like and how the restraints work puts me at ease . Thanks
Don't worry, the restraints are perfectly safe and you don't need over The shoulder harnesses to be safe even when going upside
I love your vids bro, I feel like people can be mean or get the wrong message from this content but I love what you’re doing man, keep it up bro. Much love🙏🏼
Thank you
I appreciate your content. People dont know where people are at at their journey in life. It's a shame people can be cruel
I love how you test out the kiddie rides for parents, you are so wholesome and I can't wait for u to check more rides kiddie or regular ^w^
8:52 the train be like: you suck at this him: SHUT UP TRAIN (that part is my favorite part because the train is talking to him 😂)
This is my home park and our park President is THE BEST! He works hard to keep the park beautiful. I suggest you do a park survey and let him know areas that need addressing. The Boardwalk area does need some updating for sure but the Pirates Ride is fairly new, the Hustler just got a new paint job, Dr. Diabolical is brand new, The Flying Machines is fairly new. The Boomerang just got a paint job AND new trains about the same time as Poltergeist who got a complete makeover and new paint just a couple of years ago so the President IS working on things but everything cannot possibly be done at once. I will definitely pass along your concerns and observations as well as far as the ride conditions in the Boardwalk area because I agree with you on that but I just wanted you to know, our park President is really great and makes sure everything is going well inside the park, he’s aware of things that need to be addressed but just keep filling out those surveys too because he does listen….he even pitches in with sweeping up trash & will interact with park goers so he’s really great.
Actually, it was NOT the Star Flyer at ICON Park on which the death occurred, it was on the drop tower ride.
Thanks for the correction!
Thank you so much! This probably saved me an incredible amount of time! I will say that they were able to fit me in the pandamonium(spelled wrong) ride by having me cross my ankles and sit in almost a relaxed criss cross. lol
Dr Diabolical's CliffHanger has big boy seats on it, I was able to squeeze into it. Most of the older over the shoulder rides are a no go though.
What I find funny is the “adult” rides don’t pass the test but the family ones do lol great video btw first time viewer here 🤝
8:04 made me giggle because its so relatable being a big man myself 😂
so helpful im planning on going for christmas,your videos convinced me to go to Disneyworld and now im obssesd we will see if six flags will be the same im so scared
goliath has bigger seats in two of their rows i used to operate that ride lol u should ask more ride operators if they have bigger seats cause most of the time they do!😁
hey i love your channel and everything you do. really appreciate you!
And I appreciate you watching. Thank you so much.
Kudos to this awesome guy for doing this! Really appreciate it. As someone who was 350 last year I’ve been able to reduce to 300 since I was fortunate to get on ozempic. Once I get to 250 that’s when I’ll start my ventures again.
You got this. No need to wait but best of luck either way!
❤
I am enjoying your happiness while you ride the sky searcher in the kids area!
The superman roller coaster has a seat on it for bigger people i had a friend that could only sit in that certain seat
I absolutely love you. I’m 5’2 like 250 pounds and in close I can pull it off but trying to fit this butt and thighs on rides gives me anxiety. I had pretty much stopped going to theme parks even tho I love them. Thx to you I have my confidence back.
I’m 30mins from Houston so I got a Hurricane Harbor day pass in July and your videos helped so much. Then I upgraded to a Diamond pass since I’m going to San Antonio in March.
Can you do Pleasure Pier/Moody Gardens next pls ?? Loveeee you such a sweet soul.
Unfortunately, I am officially out of Texas now and moving to Orlando. I apologize I never was able to make it over there.
Im currently a 5'6 female weighing roughly 216. I've been to six flags a lot since I live in San Antonio, but I have recently gained the weight and I'm always scared to go now bc I always go with my skinny friend. Im so scared of getting turned away and sitting alone while she rides the rides. I do think I can probably fit but i still get scared so this video helped a lot
Fun video man - keep going !
They actually offer larger seats with longer belts on the Goliath, dr diabolical clif hanger, and Superman in specific rows. I wish you got in line and gave it a shot.
Traditionally, they will always put the largest test seat out front if they have larger ones
I am not fat but I love watching your videos!
Edit: You should fat test Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia ca
I hope too!
Great job! Thanks for this you let me know of some other rides that I could ride next time I’m at Fiesta Texas. I did one of these videos at this park but not for all the attractions. I’m a bit smaller then you at 5’11” 290lbs with a 44 inch waist. So you are not too far off on fitting 90 percent of the attractions at the park. Some info for the Wonder Woman test seat it’s is much more generous then the actual ride vehicle. I’m glad you are doing this for folks in the plus size society.
Thank you for the feedback!
Could you tell me if you fit onto any of the following rides in the regular seat or had to use the big boy double seatbelt seats for any of the following: Dr Diabolical, Superman Krypton Coaster, Goliath. Also could you tell me if you fit into Iron Rattler and Poltergeist? I haven't been to Fiesta in many years, and just dropped some weight. I'm going next month and want to try to determine if I should even try for a regular seat or just stick to the big boys and we're much closer in size than the gentleman in the video.
@@jasonm07 I could ride all those you listed but it was the larger big boy seats. I Rat I have to buckle first and bring the restrait down under my belly to be able to ride. The rides you mentioned as Jason showed have tests seats. Also I was able to ride Poltergeist but had to have the ride attendant help me get the belt buckled they will help you. There is no test seat for Poltergeist, Boomerang or pandemonium so those rides if you try you may or may not be subject to the “walk”. I never let that bother me if I don’t fit I don’t fit I rather be safe then sorry. Good luck 👍
@@KicknKvnMotto Thank you very much for your input, I sincerely appreciate it!
@26:01 Yeah, I agree. I wish this video was around 2 years ago when I humbly had to walk off the Wonder Woman ride after waiting in line for over an hour. I didn't fit in the seat 🤷♂ That was humiliating. With that being one of my breaking points, I have lost 38 lbs since then. I am 5'11" , 258lbs now and counting. Can't wait to go back!
I’m not plus size but I really enjoy your videos
Love watching these
Thanks for watching
Thank you so much for doing this video. I'm hoping by next year I get season passes for me and my little family. This definitely helps out a lot. I'm glad also that you got to put a longer video. I like longer videos more then the 3 min vedios. Maybe you can do a long video at SeaWorld San Antonio, I don't recall seeing you making any videos of those rides.
I got one for Six Flags Hurricane Harbor and it’s just me but to upgrade eating/drinking was about $200. Luckily they let me split up the payments maybe you can do that for your family. Takes so much stress off and I’m at the wave pool every weekend lol
@@AshleySpeaks09 you didn't get both parks just Hurricane Harbour. I would get both since I'm more of a thrill ride tyoe of person vs my hubby is more into the water park. I hope they have where you can pay month to month. I know when we got Season Passes to Sea World San Antonio we did the EZ Pay and only paid 35 or 40 per month. Girl it's been years since I've been to Six Flags. Last time I went was 17 years ago way before I had kids. My oldest is 12 yr old going on 13 in October and my little one is 7. They've never been to Six Flags so this will be awesome for them. I've only had SeaWorld Passes since my oldest was 4 yrs old. We recently canceled due to the pandemic but never got them again. Plus this year we are heading to Disneyworld during the Thanksgiving week and then hopefully in December or n January I'll get the season passes to Six Flags. I'm so excited I finally have a parter (my son) to get on the rides with me since my hubby won't get on them due to his Anxiety.
I did a full walk-through of it. I then divided up into individual videos. If you look up fat testing, SeaWorld San Antonio, you should find it or just go to my profile and check out the park walk-through playlist.
I think they come with both automatically at her level
Imagine you didn’t read the sign and you still thought it was a haunted mansion ride but it was a launched roller coaster and you got on the seat and got surprised 😲
great video! hope to see more :)
Thank you I think I have like 400 uploaded so I hope you enjoy them :-)
You didn’t miss out on the boomerang ride that ride gets stuck all the time
Are you going to go back and try out the ones you didn’t get a chance to the first time around ?
One day
i love six flagssssss im a member best park in texas
I think I agree
that chair ride.....whats terrifying thought for me is i would have to commit to the ride seeing the guy they tried to sit you next to, i think im a bit taller than him and slightly slimmer than him meaning i would fit on that ride. and like your thought im terrified of heights and would spend the entire ride questioning the restraints. i like the ones that lock me in and those are the ones i currently cant fit into or if i can i would need as another fluffy channel creator calls it "need a little friendship" lol.
and the six flags near me, the ride you tried called the joker they call sky striker and the one you called batman they call joker. granted thats down to the batman ride there being one of the early inverted coasters that came out in the 90s.
and im afraid of heights but if i can fit in the seat i will begin talking myself into trying the insane ride. my wife who can fit any ride at six flags is also terrified of heights and the coaster that are extreme, so we go on the family rides as its the only things she is willing to get on. had i been able to fit on my chidlhood favorite i may have gotten her to like higher speed coasters.
Jason so we know a size comparison do u need a extension when you fly or no?
It’s on the cusp. I don’t need one anymore but I get one for comfort.
Thanks for doing this. May I ask your t-shirt size as a reference?
Do you mind sharing with us your height and weight?
Actually it was not the star flyer, it was the drop tower at icon park, I was there the night it happened 🥺🙈
What is your weight and height. I am 315 6 ft. Trying to lose weight so kinda curious.
I recently went from 341 to 274 pounds and am going to Fiesta Texas next month. This video was very helpful in helping me to determine what to try to fit on, thank you.
You are very welcome. I hope you have a great time.
I am currently 280 and go to Fiesta Texas a few times a month. Depending on how you hold your weight, the only ones that will be a tight fit would be Iron Rattler and Wonder Woman. Feel free to ask me any questions!
@@KatshiaRose if you dont mind me asking, do you ride the single belt seat or the double belt seat on Superman, Goliath and Dr Diabolical? What about Scream?
@@jasonm07 Superman I can ride any seat, it has the biggest seats/room of any of the coasters there. I have to double belt Dr Diabolical for sure, its tight and they always have to give it a good push down to get it in the right spot. Goliath is in between, I might be able to ride in a non double belt, but I have not tried. Scream is all single seatbelts but seats on the larger size like Superman.
@@KatshiaRose Thank you, I appreciate the information
I hate that not every ride has a test chair
I was 420 pounds in 2020 July 4th by 2020 oct 1st i drop to 288 pounds its very easy to lose weight that was my 2nd time losing over 80 to 100+ pounds on HydroxyCut only reason the 2nd time was my son's and daughter was asking about theme parks but i knew i was not going to fit and i love thrill ride so i lost the way in 90 days now i take them to Seaworld, DL, Six flag MM, Six Flag Over texas, Six Flag Fiesta Texas and Six flag Discovery kingdom, but i gain the weight again after stopping my diet and workout and go back up to 360 then lost it again and drop to 290 now im at 305 to 315 and i tell i was able to get on all the rides of both SF in texas and im 6'1 and those tester seat are wrong in the Joker at SFFT it said i wouldnt fit but was able to get on same with Dr. Daibolical wonder woman was a very close fit so i think anyone at 300 or lower would fit perfect on all rides.
Congrats
@@fattestedtravel😂😂😂😂😂
Some people with medical conditions can not just diet when meds put on the weight without you doing anything. People do not understand when people have medical conditions that will not let you loose weight no matter how hard you try, even starving yourself.
I’m actually rlly surprised a lot of Fiesta Texas rides don’t pass the fat test given how fat the population of San Antonio is.
As someone in San Antonio this comment made me giggle
san antonio born and rasied !!
Awesome
I’m bigger than you so there goes my six flags plans for next week 😢
I suggest using rowing machine 20 minutes a day or going to the gym
It does suck because these ride designers and theme parks need to think about the fat people in the world too. We like to take vacations too!!!!!
Bombastic side eye
I get a lot of that
Just Get On Keto
