Exercises in Futility - How Water Parks are Fatphobic

Watch me roast a man for accusing a Raging Rivers water park of fat shaming his daughter by weighing her and deeming her too heavy to ride a water slide.

If she got hurt or died, they'd be suing the company for not preventing her from getting on. You can't win with some people.

A 13 year old girl weighing more than me, a 41 year old powerlifting male, how embarrassing… for the both of us.

[GuinessHangover]

Buddy, your 13 year old daughter could fight at Light Heavyweight in the UFC, this isn't the water park's problem...

[sammorrissey]

Rather than question how she got to 205lbs at 13, just make it everyone elses fault. I'm 6ft, lift and weigh 198lbs. This is ridiculous

[Thebossstage]

Hey, my daughter got humiliated.
I'm going to go on public TV to tell everyone how embarrassed she is.

[JukkeX]

I'm a 6' 3" grown man and I weight 207 pounds. A 13 years old girl weights the same and that is not a problem to her father?!

"Parents who let their kids become obese are far more abusive than any scale read-out or park policy." Words of widsom.

[davidkeosa]

I'm 6' 4". I was once asked to sit in a back seat on a ride simulator so small kids can see. I said, "okay". I cannot control my height but you can control your weight. And by the looks of it, this "father" could have a few salads himself.

imagine being more concerned not being able to go on a water slide rather than your daughter going to live until 40 from heart disease

As a former fatty from the time when fat shaming was the norm I say fat shaming needs to come back hard. At the very least you didn't run around gobbing down buckets of ice cream crying "healthy at any weight".

PS I'm thin now because the doctor gave me an ultimatum. Eat healthy, exercise, and lose weight or your heart stops. A grim diagnosis that is now brushed off as fatphobic by people who look like I used to.

Love how the father claims no responsibility

[binyamj]

Yes! You nailed it, as usual. Especially about her parents being abusive and her safety. A 13-year old girl should not weight 200+, unless she’s 6’7”+.

[stemcellphone]

My high school did a senior trip to a water park and a slide collapsed. One death, and several life-changing injuries later... I firmly agree with the water park on this one.

The irony is stunning. The dad amplified the humiliation by 100x by taking it to the news.

[juandirection]

I'm a big guy (was a 10 pound baby) and as much as I love my parents, was raised like a fat kid. I weighed 160 pounds at 13. How bad of a parent do you need to be to let your 13 year old girl be 205 pounds?

[VintageVic]

I was turned away from a few water slides back when I was 310 lbs. It was humiliating, but I had no one else to blame but myself. So I dropped 60 lbs and haven’t looked back. Just down at my toes…

[tommygunzz]

Wow, with a "father" like this, who needs enemies? 🤦🏾

[MrDavkoz]

I'm sure the father eased his daughter's broken heart by buying her an ice-cream cone and soda. Sad, hopefully he'll still be around in 15 years to take her to dialysis treatments 3 times a week.

[AlphaQHard]

Best part is that the dad claims to be concerned because she was publicly humiliated, while he’s going to the news with this, guaranteeing that millions more people hear about what happened.
