IS BLACKPOOL PLEASURE BEACH PLUS SIZE FRIENDLY? 

Thanks so much for this video, it definitely put my mind at ease when I went today! For anyone else that’s feeling anxious about it,honestly don’t! I’m a size 22 and went on The Big One, Icon, Grand National, Nickelodeon Streak, Infusion, Red Arrows Skyforce, Alice in Wonderland, Wallace and Gromit, The River Caves, Avalanche, Steeplechase and Valhalla! All with no issues! The staff were great 😊

Hi Everyone, I thought I would expand upon this great video! I am a 5ft 11". Man at 320 pounds (145kg). (chunky boy 😜) my weight is mainly on my thighs. So here is my list of rides I got on & experiences... • Avalanche... Easy no problems at all. • Infusion... I got on but it was incredibly tight on my shoulders but overall fun ride. •Avatar Airbender... Easy, best, comfortable, fun! •Nickelodeon Streak, Grand National, & Big Dipper... Managed to squeeze in all of them, they all share the same cart sizes. Grand national was very painful on my legs but anyone with smaller legs would be okay, also please get the belt ready in your hands before sitting on Grand National as there is a block on the seat which will separate you from the other rider. •Ghost Train... Easy ride. •Alice in Wonderland... Was great only problem for me, I was too tall for the cart, had to put my leg on Mad hatter in the cart 🤣. •Wallace and Gromit is easy ride too. • The Big One & Ice Blast was closed. (All-day) • Derby Racer was really easy to ride... Please wear something that isn't tight on your legs... Otherwise you'll rip your trousers! 😂 • Icon... Okay, you will need to sit at the back it is the biggest seat. I manage to get on the ride in the morning, but it was tight on my thighs, nothing else... It was amazing ride but a little uncomfortable on my legs. Now later in the afternoon (about 5 hours later) the backseat would close for me, but... It was extremely painful, painful for me to say "I'm sorry, I can't ride, it's too painful" they operators were amazing and said don't worry... Someone (a woman) in the queue did make a "you need to go on a diet" comment... But already somewhat embarrassed I replied " yeah haha😅😅" and walked out the exit quickly to wait for my family. But the operators fully understand this can happen and they were amazing! If I have missed any let me know... And I'll see if I can help you!!!

Love this!! Gave me the confidence to try both sky force which was tight and grand national!! Easy peasy. And I'm a size 26 Thankyou ladies

Pleasure beach is one of my favourite and is very tall and fat people friendly Most Restrictive rides are Icon and Ice Blast Icon - Lap bars are extremely tight mainly on your thighs the belly normally hasent got an issue it’s having thick thighs that stops it coming down the lap bar has to go down an inch or so from the seatbelt going in they will switch you to the back if your struggling as that is a little more forgiving I am only able to ride icon at the back with the modified seating The Big one - as described in your video the limit is the seatbelt trying the seat next to you might make the difference the lap bar is not sensitive and should be comfortable at your liking as long have it has one or two clicks the issue I have being tall is the legroom the middle and back of each car can be quite cramped for me so I try to get the front part of each car of the train as that has a little extra legroom and the lap bar normal gets and extra click Grand National - very long and forgiving seatbelt and lap bar has no sensors can be at your liking providing it has had at least one click the seat divider it’s a squeeze and can feel cramped and the lap bar does squeeze your legs together and dig in a bit so it might hurt a bit especially as the rough nature of the ride Big dipper/ Nick streak tight seat divider like Grand National and simple lap bar as long as it comes down a little bit it’s fine it has no sensors Skyforce - normally quite forgiving it does not have to be as tight as The Smiler if you can ride The Smiler you will get to ride the seat belt has loads of slack it can depended on certain seats having funny sensors Ice Blast - seat belt at least has to clip in some seats that are over sensitive May need an additional clip to put some slack in the seat belt staff might do switcheroos normally to seat 1 as that one is normally only down to the seatbelt Infusion - as long as the seat belt clips in should be ok Revolution - very forgiving just seatbelt has to go in Avalanche - very forgiving as restraint is designed for two people Air Bender - bar has to press tightly against your back, not tested a limit for it Kristy Karbala drop tower - very restrictive due to it being designed for children staff normally try to place adults on the end seats Steeplechase - very long and forgiving seatbelt Everything else has either a very unrestricted bar or seat belt or has no retrains Wallace and Gromit, Ghost Train, Alice Ride, Valhalla, Flying Machines, Blue Flyer, Derby Racer and Grand Prix can be tight in legroom for tall people over 6ft I may suggest that it may be more comfortable to cross your legs

Glad they could accommodate you and you rate them well… Pleasure beach is my favourite place to be… I’m vision impaired and use a cane, the team are so friendly and helpful towards me. So I’m glad others get a positive experience too

This video was helpful for me visiting at the weekend! Only ride I couldn’t get on was infusion I’m 6’6 and was just under the maximum height but struggled as I have big shoulders.

Just for more reassurance, I went here when i was almost 15 stone at around 5 foot 4, had no difficulties whatsoever on anything! 😊

Live this thank you! I have a season pass but piled Weight on this year so haven't been since March as I've been scared to go. I'm going tomorrow and your vid has given me confidence ❤️

This is great news. My partner thought she might have a chance to back out of the big one after the bet we made. Love it. Thankyou. Ha ha haaaa

Thanks so much for this you are so so brave to share this and it will help so many people! I’m wondering if you know your measurements at all? With you saying you can now fit on ice blast!! Well done 🌟

going blackpool tomorrow! this is super super helpful as a plus size person myself

We haven’t been for years and we’ve looked at various RU-vid videos.I find that at 5ft 9 and 16-17st,the seats on wooden roller coasters are a little tight. Your video will give confidence to bigger people who might be afraid to go in case they don’t fit in the seats. Theme parks should give you free entry as it’s good advertising.

These videos are really helpful, unfortunately this Vlog is a couple of weeks after I went to Blackpool 🤣 I fit on everything though 😊

Thank you so much for this! Im going to pleasure beach in a couple of weeks with hubby and some friends, and i have been so worried that I wouldnt fit into a seat (size18/20) but youve put my mind fully at ease so im looking forward to my day out now! ❤❤❤

Thank you so so much I'm going to Blackpool next week and I'm terrified of not fitting

Nixe video im new to the channek on infusion the over shoulder things are unconfirtoble where on icon your top half is uncoved when it goes upsidedown yiou feel like you are falling out of seat which is desoeated and the speed of icon u feel like u are feeling like you are zero g dont u

I’m fifteen stone of muscle it’s a killer for me too on rides. Infusion is the worst. The restraint is too thick and I don’t know what to do with my hands!

Hi 👋 new subscriber. Thank you so much for this. I’m visiting next month with my little girl, I’m size 28 and was really worried about not being able to fit on anything. This was so helpful thank you xx

I go in 4 days and I'm a size 18. 5ft4in and about 90kg. I've been terrified of not be able to go on any rides with my daughter. Do you think I'l be okay?

Thank you so much for this video as a larger chap I've been worried about going after Drayton Manor turned me away infont if everyone else on the ride and it shot my confidence you are both Angels! Thank you

Hi there I'm going to Blackpool in a couple of weeks on the big one do u know what seats have the more comfy seats belts? Thankyou 🙂

This was so helpful, thank you

Great video

5:51 Do you know if there is a sensor on Infusion, or is it just as long as the seatbelt is on its fine?

I'm so pleased I found this video, I'm a size 24 and really want to try some of the rides!

Thank you so much for posting this. Please may I ask what size you are? I'm 26 and worried I won't fit on the rides 😕

Would you mind me asking what size you are Steph as I’m a 22/24 and scared I won’t fit but going Thursday x

Hi I’m going to Blackpool pleasure beach on Monday, I’m so sorry to ask and sorry if it seems rude I truly don’t intend it but I’m uk 20 on the top and 22 on the bottom and worries about fitting on rides.

I love these videos!

Not trying to be mean..i was overweight once and at some point my brain told me to stop eating so much,as i couldent wipe my own butt and couldn't tie my own laces...and being overweight and being obese is a real health concern....that is where you need to be focused on...NOT if you can fit in a seat...if you cant...then thats on you ....NOT the park to rectify...loose weight

i’m a size 16-20 and i go on monday do you recon i would be fine on the rides as i’m really nervous about it ? x

Thank you so much for this!

Iv gone to Blackpool for years tho I haven’t been in 4 years because of covid then I lost my mum going back in a few weeks with my son I’m 5ft size 18-20 because of medication I’m actually so anxious about fitting on the rides cause iv got big boobs aswell do u think I’ll fit ok? & thank u so much for this video ur a much braver person than I am hun ur a beautiful person thank u ❤
