Can i fit?

I weigh 280 and am 5 foot. i was just wondering what rides i can and can not fit on so i don't have to be embarrassed. i'm going with a group of friends next month.

I'm a 38-40 inch waist and I can fit just about everything. Wicked Twister is the only one that gave me a problem. Sometimes I can fit, and sometimes not.

Also, I've heard that the 4th row on B&M rides (Raptor & Gatekeeper)can hold larger people.

Millennium Force and Top Thrill Dragster are the tightest fits if you carry your weight around your middle. I think most people that have a problem with Wicked Twister carry their weight higher (but I may be wrong on that). It is hard to say whether you'll fit or not until you try since everyone is built different.

It's very important that the lap bar rests on your lap on top of your thighs and not your waist. Many of the big rides have tester seats at the entrance.

I was there for the first time last year and I am 6ft. 290, with a 42 inch waist. I could not ride Top Thrill or Millinium. I did not try Mantis, Blue Streak, or Wicked Twister based on comments on here. I could ride everything else that I tried.

I have also found that some of the seatbelts on the rides differ.

I was on Top Thrill last year and was barely able to get my belt to click on one seat... I went on a different seat a few hours later, and had a ton of room to spare.

Just a heads up!

For me, my quads are larger because I've been squatting and doing a lot of lower body lately. I noticed the last time I rode WT it was a lot more snug than usual. It really does depend where you carry your weight on that thing.
