Disney Rides Help Please?

     
  

Hi everyone,

I have found this site great, i hope there is someone who can put my mind as ease. I am a bit worried i know disney covers for all different people but myself being rather a large ladie i am worried what if a cant fit on the rides all my family are smaller then me and they tell me i will be fine all they want to talk about is what park to do first and of course so they should, but i dont think they understand i am scared that i maybe to big for a certain ride or the bar on a rollercoaster wont go down.
I am sure diney cater for larger people i would be so grateful if anyone can let me know what they think or if your a larger person and was worried any advise i just want to be comfortable not haveing to keep breathing in the whole time.
Thank you if anyone has got advise.

Trust me. You'll be fine. Don't even worry about it.

You can go here and see the ride vehicles for almost every ride they have a vehicle for...

You will be fine. My aunt and uncle had the same worries until they got there. They had a perfect trip.

My "thick uncle" was so worried about that to. I am a big person too, and I know how embarassing it can be to not fit properly. I assured him, and I assure you that you will not encounter this problem at Disney. For rides at Universal that are more fast-paced (roller coasters that need tight fitting belts) they put a test car outside of the attraction that shows you how far the bar must come down, so you don't have to worry!
