- Are you a plus size roller coaster enthusiast like myself? Frustrated with the dreaded "walk of shame" when you try a ride only to find out you don't fit? Well, I have done the hard work for you, and given the ride a good "Fat Guy Ride Test". Now, you can plan your day and make the most of our visit to the park by knowing ahead of time the question to....."will I fit?".
This past fall, I was able to visit Busch Gardens Williamsburg for the first time. While there, I did some Fat Guy Ride Testing on several of their attractions.
For this video, I will be performing a Fat Guy Ride test on the legendary Arrow coaster - Loch Ness Monster.
I hope this helps....thanks for watching!

Man you are literally a life saver!
As a bigger guy I get such anxiety about theme parks even though I love them. I’ve been watching all your bush gardens videos leading into my trip there in August. Thank you!
Glad I could help. I hope you have an amazing visit! Let me know how it goes.
kinda there now. just got back from six flags great america and an oldie i rode as a kid i couldnt fit in. the american eagle. but they have an arrow coaster called the demon and now im seeing i might of been able to fit had i tried it first. not fitting in american eagle put me off but now im gonna try again at my current weight and see if i make it. but now i want to lose weight to get back on rides like i did as a kid.
The funniest laugh ever my friend and i actually do your laugh on that second loop now everytime you ride😂 great vid man
Glad you enjoyed
awesome!
Thanks!
I love this coaster. I am glad Busch Gardens and S&S take care of its maintenance.
Please know that while this is my first comment, I have been watching and appreciating your coverage. Inspiring!
Me too. I LOVE all things Arrow.....wish they were still making rides. Thank you so much for watching my videos....and for sharing. I really appreciate it!
that laugh is the best!!!
It's a evil laugh 🤣
These videos make me happy because you happily try the rides and don't care if people stare when you cannot ride. I wish i was like that. I wont even ATTEMPT rollercoasters incase they cant lock it and people laugh. Good on you man
I got so excited for you when you said “it fits”. I love your positive attitude! Watching these because I’m going to BGW next Sunday for my birthday and I’m plus size so these are helping me. Thanks for your content!!!! 🥰
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that. I hope you have an amazing birthday visit!
After a walk of shame at Verbolten yesterday, where I thought maybe it would give just enough to get me in, I found your videos. Thank you! Maybe today I will finally get to try a coaster.
That alpengeist seat was so not happening it was laughable.
I love that you are having a good time! Shame the rest of the train is so silent though. Nothing gets me more giddy and excited than a good old fashion Arrow Looper.
Arrow is my jam!
😂😂 the “ ahh... that was fun... heheheh”😂😂😂
looks amazing!
It was!
This is helpful my son is tall, big, and broad he's self conscious about rides
Glad I could help!
IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU DUDE!!!
Thank you....that ride was a lot of fun!
@@DorkyDude I seen!! Laugh is awesome!!
i love this video so much lol
LOL Thanks. I had a lot of fun on this ride.
That's awesome! We are going to this park in a few weeks. My son is a big guy and this video was so helpful. How did you find the rest of Busch Gardens Williamsburg? What rides should we avoid to help him have a great time? Thanks!!
It really depends on how big he is. Unfortunately, I went for a limited capacity event so all the rides weren't open to test. But I could give you a really good idea on several of them if you have some specifics for me. Thanks for watching!
@@DorkyDude so what other rides were u able to ride?
Hey guys I just got back from kingsisland ! I weight 253 and I am 5’3 I could couldn’t try every ride cause my daughter was only 50 inches but I could ride the delirium,the bat,the beast,mystic Timbers was a little tight they had to push down on it a little. I rode the adventure express.
Glad to hear this. Sorry I didn't respond to your other message quick enough. Thanks for sharing...and thanks for watching.
It is a fun ride
I wholly agree!
ah hell. now im thinking i should have tried the demon at six flags great america because its made by the same company. i might of been able to fit and the demon does a loop and near the end has a barrel roll inversion.
fack, well if i go back with the fam this year...im trying the demon because the seats looked similar to this one.
All those Arrow looping coasters have the same seats....so its very likely. But, some parks require additional restraints (it depends on state regulations). For example: Loch Ness was just the overhead pulldown but Vortex at Kings Island and Corkscrew at Cedar Point (both ohio parks) required an additional buckle connecting the shoulder harness to the seat via a between the legs buckling mechanism. Just make sure to check that out first so you're sure.
Love your videos! Question, did the overhead harness have to go through more than one click?
Thank you so much for watching! I really appreciate it. To be honest, I don't know if there is a required number of clicks needed (I'm pretty sure it only needs to come down once). I got 3 or 4 clicks down. Hope this helps.
Well at least you can fit on something, Arrow Dynamics are very painful ride, I prefer Intamin, B&M, and S&S Tower.
I'm Arrow all the way. Love the old school feel of an Arrow.
@@DorkyDude Someday I will visit there for Apinegeist B&M, Mach Tower, Griffin Invader, and etc.
How big are you and what other rides were you able to fit on? I don’t want to be embarrass if I have to walk back cause I don’t fit.
Just go through the videos on my page. I have a video on every ride that I tried at this park that shows whether or not I was ...or was not... able to fit and why/why not. I hope they help. Thanks for watching.
As a fellow fat guy, thanks for doing this. Do you have your dimensions/weight listed anywhere so I can compare?
I don't...sorry. They fluctuate depending on the tides and whatever new items Taco Bell has that week. LOL In this particular video, I was wearing a 4xl-5xl shirt, 3xl pants (dont know waistline number, sorry), and in the 400 lb. range (I'm 5'9 btw). I hope this helps....if you have any specifics you'd like to ask...just let me know. Thanks for watching.
