The UNHINGED World of Disney Fat Tok

They approach this appropriately. They inform viewers of their experiences as plus-size people on the rides, comprehensive reviews, but do NOT shame the parks. They do NOT demand accommodations. I love these girls even though I’m absolutely not a theme park goer. Their attitude is great

[totestazz]

A stairs warning is great for people who have physical disabilities who don’t know the ride.

I don't know why anyone would be upset at this, this seems entirely reasonable and helpful.

This is a prime example of people hating on fat people for literally no reason. They're being harmlessly open about their theme park experiences, and I know thousands of plus size theme parks goers who would find their videos helpful.

I'm a theme park vlogger, and whilst I'm not the fittest person, I'm also not considered "plus size" and have never had a problem fitting on any ride. But I get regular worried messages from my plus size viewers asking me if I think they might fit on a certain ride or not.

As someone who doesn't experience their struggles, I feel bad that I can't always help. These lovely TikTokers are really helping a whole community with their vulnerability and open-ness.

Universal Studios kicked off my weight loss journey. I wasn't able to fit on any of the rides, lost 150lb, and had a successful revenge tour last year. So yeah, it is possible to lose the weight and have your dream coaster experience!

[emilyhughes]

It’s crazy that people expect people who are overweight to put their lives completely on hold, not go out, not do anything fun until they loose weight.

[ksis]

I don’t understand the negative comments under their videos. They aren’t complaining or bashing the theme parks, they’re just warning obese people what rides may/may not work for them

[mustachedpotatoes]

This seems like a great channel for people with mobility issues in general. I have a friend who has trouble getting around due to hip injuries, and the information on stairs, whether you have to step up into rides, and what sort of restraints are used would be a huge help for her to plan which rides she'd want to even attempt to go for.

[erikablazevic]

Personally I have absolutely 0 problems with the content they're making - its exactly as you say; they're not demanding places to change, they're just being informative for those that want to visit these places and have anxiety about not fitting or being able to go on certain rides. It's for a very specific niche of people that would want this kind of information, so as long as it serves them, that's great! You cant loose 200lbs in one day, and a health journey is about loving yourself as you are; I know that when i was younger I would think that I wasn't deserving to go to a themepark UNTIL I fit. These informative videos show us that you're worth it to go at any size, just gotta test out the seats first!

[OlivanderHolifield]

It blows my mind that people don't seem to understand that if you're overweight, you're not going to lose the weight overnight. I'm in the process of beginning my weight loss journey and it's going to take some time before I get to a point where I might be able to do certain things that others do with ease. Does that mean I should put my whole life on hold simply because I make other people feel uncomfortable or evoke some sort of hateful response from them? I like what these women are doing, in that, they're providing useful information to others and possibly helping people avoid the embarrassment and shame of not being able to do something because of their current size/physical limitations.

[Irishczech]

Good point. I'm SO glad that they don't shame the parks or restaurants over accommodations.

[madelinegrc]

dude your actually the best person I’ve seen to cover this topic, I could see u carefully choosing your words to be respectful but still make a point. Props to u

[virgofairy]

I’m a former ride operator and this is actually helpful and it prepares people ahead of time so they don’t experience disappointment trying to get on the roller coaster. The worst thing was when I had to turn guests away because they couldn’t fit in the restraints of a ride (I would always try my hardest to make them fit). A lot of the ride restrictions are there for a reason-if someone falls out of a ride or gets injured, that’s a huge liability for the park. Most of the arguments I had with guests were over children not being tall enough to ride and doing everything in their power to lie and sneak them in-never worked lol. Regardless, you can still find ways to have fun at amusement park no matter who you are.

[schneewitschen]

“This episode of if I fits, I sits” 😆 😆 I find them delightful! They’re just give some insight to other would be “park hoppers”. Totally harmless imo.

[Whatevadantewante]

this is so unproblematic. as for the restaurants, the breakdown of the dining room is AMAZING for those with mental health issues surrounding anxiety as well as for people with disabilities both intellectual and developmental. I'm a DSP and a video like that would be perfect to watch before I take out my clients with wheelchairs or clients who need more space due to behavioral occurances.

[mimi.dixon.b]

I actually adore what they’ve titled it ‘if I fits I sits’ this is great content, and where our efforts should be focused in terms of calling out people hating on overweight people purely for existing-there’s no reason people should be hating on these girls

[harloewestwood]

As someone with a fused ankle that makes step-ups and stairs difficult, this info would be really helpful for me to know, even though I'm not their target demographic. Accessibility helps everyone.

[dreamerlotus]

Isn't it so comforting for people to see that there are test seats you can check if you will fit. These ladies seem to be offering great content that could encourage folks to go to the parks with less anxiety over their size.

[mialovestravel]

I think it’s brilliant. People deserve to be treated with respect and dignity regardless of their size. I love that this will help some people to feel more confident about going out and having a fun vacation!

[ReaverRoyale]

Their content doesn't look bad to me. I don't really like amusement parks much, but these videos would probably help anyone anxious about what to expect. It's like videos detailing what the rides feel like.

Test seats make sense to me. It's like one of those "you must be this tall to ride" signs. If someone does have an extreme body type, it saves them time in line.
