At 6'5", is my husband too tall for any rides?

DH is 5' 11" and he will not ride Mullholand Madness or Gadgets Go Coaster because his knees hit the front of the cars. He also prefers his own car Matterhorn, because he says sharing gets cramped LOL:thumbsup2
 
I am 6'4" , 210 and a few rides be the crap out of my knees: Autopia, Matterhorn, Mul. Madness and Gadgets Go Coaster. I only ride Matterhorn of those anymore.

My husband is 6' 5.5" tall, and he can ride everything, but Mulholland Madness is VERY uncomfortable for him. He manages to fold himself in somehow so he can still ride it though - LOL! :laughing:

However, I made him stop riding the rides with his hands in the air on Space Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain because I'm telling you, with him being so tall, and add to that his long arms/hands/fingers stretched high over his head, there's hardly an inch of space between his hands and the ride structures at certain points in the rides, and I'm afraid he'll lose a hand or finger or something. :eek:

Oh goodness! Yeah, DH isn't a hands-up guy, I'm more worried about a terrible decapitation! :eek: but it seems like a lot of the taller posters seem to be okay on Space. I am not a fan of Autopia so that won't be a problem to avoid :)

Even though you've already gotten a lot of responses saying it would be fine for your DH to ride all the rides, I thought I would add something else I thought of after thinking about people putting their hands up in the air. I'm 5'5" and if I put my hands straight up it adds more than another foot to my "height" so that would be well over 6'5" so anyone tall would be fine. But like PP said, not so sure about a tall person putting their hands up. I'm sure Disney must test for that since there is no warning for tall people but it still seems scary.
