Will I Fit? Plus Size Dollywood Seat Testing With Actual Footage and Three Different Body Types 

This was very helpful. The last time I was at an amusement park I didn’t see any tester seats. This is a really good idea.

Thank you for this video! My weight is in my chest and tummy and appreciate this video a lot. We’re heading out there in July and been looking for videos like this since I’ve gained a lot of weight from the pandemic. Thank you again!

Thank you for sharing this information. I really appreciate it. We want to take the grand kids this year. This really helps.

Very helpful. We will be going in a couple weeks and I was worried about this. Thou I dont think I will fit all, this gives me an idea which ones I might!!

Thank you for making this video. Very beautiful family. God bless.

Thanks for the video! Heading there this week . Fingers crossed

I’ll be dieting starting TODAY! It’s GREAT that they have test seats. Many parks don’t.

Thank you for doing this.. I'm have this problem too.

Thank you for doing this. I know it alleviates much anxiety. I had to walk off The Eagle due to it not locking on my chest.

My kid was just telling me that there would probably be several rides I wouldn’t fit on due to my chest. Very helpful video

Thanks for this video! I just went yesterday to Dollywood and the only one that I couldn't do was Mystery Mine. I probably could have gotten it to work once I got up to the ride, but I didn't want to risk walking off haha

Thank you for doing this!

Thanks for sharing this, your work is so appreciated. New subscriber.

Thanking you for posting my family is wanting to go but I'm afraid I won't fit so this helped a lot thank you! God Bless

Helpful. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks so much for this!

very important video you guys made. i am plus size and would not even try, i know i wouldn't fit, but seeing others, will help those who are afraid to even try. thanks

Thank you for sharing this video! Were Dave & April actually able to ride Lightning Rod (in an even numbered row)?

Thank you so much for your video!!

One thing that i wish you did was give everyone a push because, the ride operators do try to assist you within reason.

The whistle punk chaser doesn't have a test seat. It is a kid coaster, but my daughter always wants me to ride it with her. It just has a pull back lap bar. I'm 5'5" and built like April, same pant size. I can fit, but for the bar to lock, I have to turn kind of sideways. It is quite uncomfortable and leaves very little room for my legs. My daughter loves it though, so I guess it is worth the bruise I always end up with the next day after riding the whistle punk 3-5 times.

I was so happy to find your video and had high hopes that more rides would have bench seats. As I suspected Dollywood didn't choose rides with larger guests in mind. We'll save our money and choose other venues this summer.

only ride i got on was river rampage, and i still had to get a Velcro extender 😅

I can do rollercoasters but I cannot do the pirate ships or any back and forth rides. It does something to my body.

I’m 6’1 320 n could only fit on Blazing Fury. Disappointing and embarrassing when you trying to fit with everybody watching and then talking walk of shame,but we’re big and beautiful for a reason. Thanks for sharing

Witch day did you go cause I thought I saw you there

I am 5'9" 250lb with 40" waist, short legs, long torso and a lot of chest for a man. I can barely squeeze on Lightning Rod. The rows with the longer seatbelts are better, but ultimately it is a fight to get the restraint down on any row. I got my first back off on Mystery Mine. I have ridden it before, but on my most recent trip, I could not get the harness down enough on my chest. None of the other rides in the park are any issue for me.

Do you have an updated video on the rides that were missed?

Are you talking about the trolley

More amusement parks should have test seats not to mention airlines.

Hey would you be able to share your guys’ measurements? I’m from New Zealand and my husb and and I are plus size and visiting in august but the clothes sizes are different here so measurements would give a much better idea if we would fit :) only if you’re comfortable doing so! Love the video :) thanks!

I didn’t fit test Thunderhead but I fit on the ride

It sucks, but the parks do not want to spend the extra money to engineer for larger people... this is one of the reasons I stick to knoebels, as someone who is 6'2" and 330 lbs I can ride everything, except the kiddie rides and kiddie coaster But after watching many of these videos I am thankful as you saved me a fortune... however I do know Tornado is a definite yes for e as it was made by Arrow Dynamics and they accordate some pretty beefy riders

I say this with all sincerity and wishes for the well being of you, your family, and our nation. Your obesity is killing you. Please focus on eating healthier foods and getting more excercise. You are not alone with this affliction, obviously. That is how you can show real body positively. Real self love.

I'm way bigger than him and can ride thunderhead. So this isn't 100% accurate

Great video to show why the big price together in is not worth for so many! My daughter is in a wheelchair and no rides accommodate her at Dollywood!

Keto / carnivore.

I find this really sad. They really need to have at least 3 carts that can fit taller and bigger people...

Sad because not everyone is thin it discriminates against fat people

Too many new people trying to do Gatlinburg reviews now. It's all ready covered.
