I’ve been to Fiesta Texas and Over Texas multiple times in my life, and my biggest complaint about Over Texas is the black asphalt they use for the walking surface.
I worked there for a couple months, it’s definitely a problem. I had a friend get heat exhaustion from it even when we were hydrating in shade at every chance we got, they really need to do something about it
I’m not mad at you for missing anything. Your health is more important. The first time we went to SFOT this year my husband got too hot and almost didn’t make it to the car. He’s also a large gentleman. You hit my two favorite rides Batman and Runaway Mountain. I think all you really missed was New Texas Giant, Titan, Scrambler, Rodeo and Roaring Rapids. I hope you get a chance to try those rides & look forward to seeing the video. Great job slimming down a little bit.
I am glad that you can check your fit in a seat before you get in line for a ride. Saves the embarassment of not fitting when youre actually on the ride and everyone is gawking at you. Be safe when you sit, and have a wonderful time!!
I’m so glad that you took care of yourself & went to the first aid station & then to the hotel. It really looked awfully hot with no ac. Hope you’re okay.
I just discovered your channel, & I'm so glad I did! I love amusement & theme parks, but most of them just aren't fat friendly. Disney is probably the best, & I used to go once a year. But they've unfortunately priced me out, so I haven't been since 2012. SFOT is actually my home park. I live less than an hour away & had season tickets for awhile. But the last time I went (about 18 years ago), I just barely fit on most things. I'm very "hippy", so I tend to have issues with seat width even if the safety bar would be OK. As for SFOT, whenever you make it back, I'd love to know about Titan & Shockwave. I rode them back in the day, & they're both great fun. I rode Texas Giant before the RMC makeover, & it was great, too. But I remember the seats (at least at that time) being divided & just barely fitting. Plus it has the unfortunate distinction of someone DYING on it because she didn't fit properly, but they let her go anyway. So I'm going to say it's not fat friendly. The seat width was problem for me on Batman, too. But I don't think they had a plus size row back then, so that's good to know! I'm definitely going to check out your other videos. Dollywood & Cedar Point are on my list of parks I'd LOVE to go to. Oh, & the TX heat is no joke! As much as I love rides, it's not fun for me if I have to walk on the surface of the sun to get to them.
This is how I lost weight. I don't like working out but I will walk SFOT 2x a week. I couldn't fit in Judge Roy Screams seats. I have no prob now. Also, If I didnt want SFOT, I would go to hurricane Harbor and climb the slide towers. Black hole 2x a trip. Good luck to you hun. I go Sun thru Tue if you want a walking buddy this summer.
I love these videos! I'm a very big girl but I would also enjoy seeing you eat some of the good foods at these Parks so I know what's good when I visit. That would be a bonus for me. I love your videos and I thank you for testing the seats for big people in makes a difference but please try to eat a few of the good foods and show us because I love to eat eat eat and that way we know what's good when we visit thank you you're the best❤
17:51 Not at all surprised someone threw up from that Riddler's Revenge ride! I got dizzy just watching the video of it! Thank you for your fun reviews! I hope you come to my home park Worlds Of Fun in Kansas City! Our Viking Voyager log ride looks so similar to the one in this video! It's my favorite ride💖🎈🎢 Oh and saaame about the seats getting SO hot!! The Scrambler at Worlds Of Fun burns when it's sunny out!
Nice to see copies of Pulsar popping up , It's truely a great ride so i'm glad more people will get to experience Mack's genius invention :) Unfortunately it looks extremely bland and stale compared to the original which was built on a lake and that's what makes it such a perfect addition to the park and adds to the experience so much and honestly it's an icon to my home park now :,) . I do hope if they build more copies they will do something about the aesthetics of the rides since i'm afraid it will take away from the experience too much and leave people dissapointed. It's a great experience but it would be a shame to see it become another copy paste ride they place everywhere
That’s good that you did the right thing and took care of yourself. Heat related illnesses is no joke. Will look forward to part 2 when you get a chance to do one for the park. La Vibora is large rider friendly.
Great Video, I have a similar problem on a few of those rides so I can sympathize. The populous is of a larger build these days and Six flags helps that with the fattening food that they serve. Six Flags is hurting in attendance.and people will not come thru the gates if they know that they can not enjoy the rides since they are larger so what Six flags needs to do is to get with the rides manufacturer and get them to adjust the restraints and rides so that larger people can ride so that Six Flags will be more attractive to visit. In your case you did not get any value for your trip and Six flags needs to be ashamed for that.
I went here in Oct 2019 for Fright Fest and could barely fit anything. I was so disappointed. We use to go to this park when I was a kid. So I was super excited just to be let down
For people who are Husky. Rides are as follows for my fittings: Titan, Yes. NTG, (last time I rode it) Yes. Mr. Freeze, Yes (There is a lot of room if you're not too big in the front). Aquaman, (haven't tried yet). Superman Tower of Power, No. Pandemonium, Yes. The Joker, (last time I rode it) Yes. Shockwave, Yes. i'll update more as I return to the park.
Some of them are so close. especially the over shoulder harnesses. I am not a big guy at all. 5'7 160lbs. But my fiance is bigger, mostly in the thigh and booty area, and we had an unfortunate trip to cedar point (it was a blast actually). There were a lot of rides she couldn't get on.....but it was always down to the little belt that hooks into the shoulder harness. Those things could be an inch longer and more people could ride. I am no coaster engineer but there were belts where I was like "oh come on. she isn't going to go anywhere if that belt was just an inch longer. WHY are they so short?I mean half of them the metal was touching the clasp....just couldn't push it in. The frsutrating one was millenium force. I understand rides that loop or twist or whatever. But something that the force of the ride actually keeps you in the seat need to have bigger belts.
The seat belts between your legs are called minimum position indicators. Aka the tools ride crews use for checking if a restraint is open too far. All those seat belts are a specific length designated by the ride manufacturer. Modification of these indicators led to the Orlando Freefall drop tower accident. It’s frustrating that it’s so close but manufacturers like to keep a good safety factor as the restraints and seatbelts will naturally wear over time allowing more room until it’s replaced in routine maintenance. Rides that don’t go upside down are deceptive. Rides without inversions, especially big ones, focus more on negative vertical force, and lateral force which are the “dangerous forces” that can throw you from your seat if your not secured properly. Millennium Force is known for its long sustained negative g force.
@@jmk4360 Thank you for the info. The crazy thing is she was able to ride Maverick just fine. It had a slightly longer belt that connects to the shoulder harness. I wonder why THAT one (which is crazy fun and intense) had the leeway...but Valraven, MF, ROUGAROU, she failed all of those and they had similar seats. All down to that little belt.
forth worth? more like fort girth !!! cuz the food is good !! man i got me a tredmill im trying! gettin on it 5 days a week but little weight loss!! ugh! i wish it was easier. one day ill get a season pass and be able to go to six flags and walk around! that would be fun with my 2 boys !! just grateful to Jesus everyday!
I hate censorship. If I have to hear one more person say 'unalived' or 'pew pew' to appease one more unhinged leftist (all clearly unacquainted with reality), I feel like I'll scream. On another note, great video, keep up the good work! 👍🏼
im likely with you on that joker ride failing the fat test. i might be able to fit in that seat and my local six flags put one of those in but they call it sky striker because they have one of those flippy coasters already called joker. and i watched it in action and the whole time i just thought.....hellll noooo.
I’m was fat. I rode it and like you I was placed in the front. I finally fit. I could not breathe. The pictures at the end were hilarious. The next day I was in the paper Mathew Parry was in the cart behind me. It was embarrassing. H was in town for a film.
lost my dad’s hat riding on the mini mine train almost a decade ago, if you ever see a navy baseball cap with a small american flag on it tell it i said hi i never forgot about you lol
How to say this without fat shaming…. Kudos for doing the research. Shame that you couldn’t enjoy all the rides. But, perhaps you might have suggested that not being able to go on some rides which accommodate the majority of people is a possible indicator to…. Exercise a bit more? Yes yes. Easier said than done. But in the end, if one can shed a few pounds, they’ll feel so much better! Thank you for posting this, however. It was informative.
Hi, I do apologize, but could you please tell me where you’re spying on me that you know how much exercise I’m doing? I would greatly appreciate to know where the cameras are.
You are a godsend!! I knew Batman and Mr. Freeze wouldn’t fit because I tried those myself. I need to slim down so I can enjoy my favorite rides again. 😔
Apparently Jason didn't know how significant this park is for large riders. He missed the (extremely fun) New Texas Giant, which is infamous for an obese woman being ejected from her seat and killed in 2019. Most of her torso/belly was not restrained & sat on top of the lap bar, which was down & locked properly, but only on top of her legs. This caused sweeping,, worldwide changes in how overweight riders are viewed & addressed on amusement rides. This tragedy initiated the usage of test seats, for instance, and increased usage of seat belts. Parks & ride operators developed & used new procedures on the dangers faced by large riders, ride entrance signage was altered. Respect for Jason doing this interesting video. With all due respect, however, the rides _did not_ "fail," Jason did. You've heard this before, but I was once nearly 100 pounds overweight. _Life is so much better,_ though I've got another 50 to go. _It is possible,_ you can do it! I'm a wood roller coaster hobbyist & don't worry about fitting on rides anymore. Matterhorn Bobsled was actually the first tubular steel roller coaster, built in 1959 at Disneyland. Still operates & is lots of fun. Runaway Mine Train (in this video) was built in 1966 & is a fun, jerky ride, one of several original rides to this park.
This happened in 2013, I remember it very well because the day before her death I did the walk of shame because the bar couldn't secure. It was shocking to hear someone died on the same ride the next day and I was thankful they didn't let me ride
SFOT is a big park! I skipped out on Kings Island because it was SO hot that I just said “forget it!” and went on down the road. Never feel bad for taking care of yourself. I could see in the video that you were overheated. 🫶🏻Thank you for trying your best.

YES EVERY Ride should have this! IMO
genuinely so grateful for you and for this video. thank you thank you!!
You’re so welcome

The Matterhorn at Disneyland is actually the first tubular steel rollercoaster.

Honestly rides should b fit 4 ev1 not a certain size bc I feel so bad I yell at my phone hoping he gets 2 enjoy his time at theme parks
I understand they'll never be for everyone, but I'd love to see them try.
Just wanted to say, IF YOU CAN'T FIT IN A ROLLERCOASTER SEAT THEN MAYBE IT'S A SIGN TO NOT BE SO FAT AND LOSE WEIGHT
The twix comment LOL but it makes sense
That’s good that you did the right thing and took care of yourself. Heat related illnesses is no joke. Will look forward to part 2 when you get a chance to do one for the park. La Vibora is large rider friendly.
Yea but La Vibora sucks
Play actually have testing seats before you even get in line to see if you fit???
I don’t wanna sound like a hater, but shouldn’t this be a sign to loose weight?
what is your waist size during this video?? thankyou for sharing!!
13:49 what about catwoman whip at six flags over georgia?
I was just about to say the same thing 😂
You should go to the Wisconsin Dells next year.
Thank you for testing and God bless you

If you lose weight and just weigh as much as one adult humans instead of two, you’ll fit in everything.
