I have read that Kilamajaro has "warnings" for riders? My dad recently suffered a heart attack and had quadruple bypass sugery. I've been on this ride many times and it is bumpy at times but that's all.
Can he ride this? Should he consult his doctor?
Thanks!

Disney has, at many attractions, warnings that people with bad backs, heart conditions, and/or pregnant may not want to ride the attractions for health reasons.
I would suggest that he discuss this with his doctor. It czn be very bumpy or jerky at times.

I always ask my doctor when I'm uncertain about a ride. He knows exactly what my limitations are, and what he did to fix them, so I rely only on his advice! (Btw, neck and back problems, not heart.)
FYI, riding in the front can be less bumpy than riding in the back.

the back is definitely painful. I rode this the last time about 3 times and quit the last time as it was so bad in the back seats. Personally even up front I would not ride it if there was a heart warning and even without the heart warning I would not ride it because of the jostling. Check youtube for videos to see just how bumpy it can get.
