Forbidden Journey Height Limit? Will my husband be able to ride?

[TeamDP]

Hi,

I've done several searches and haven't been able to come up with an answer. I've read in a couple of places now that there is actually a height LIMIT on Forbidden Journey of 6'3". My husband (a HUGE HP fan!) is 6'6" so I'm wondering if he will be stopped if he tries to ride? Is it a comfort level issue or is it that they won't let him on?

I really appreciate any help!

yeah he will! on forbidden journey ypur legs are hanging so no problem there, people have more problems with the weight rather than height, the seats are narrow. My cousin is 6’5’ and fit on everyride at Universal and AoA

Any limits would be based on whether the restraint will close. Since it goes over the shoulders, he may need to scrunch down, but he can experiment with how he needs to sit in order for the restraint to close in the test seat outside the ride entrance.

Thank you both! This will at least give him hope

I'm pretty sure some of the Orlando Magic rode the ride when it first opened. I'll research a bit.

When I read the title of the thread I was thinking the exact opposite. How short is her husband? Bless his heart.

I'm 6'4 and fit on it with no issue. AS others said think it's mroe of a general guide for the purpose of restrains, and making sure feet to dangle too low to hit stuff. But have seen plenty of guys taller than me on it
