We just got back
My husband is a weight lifter. He is 6 foot, 235 lbs and has a 54 inch chest. His chest is huge and by far the deepest and largest part of him. He was fine, the TM did push to get the 3rd click but not hard at all. There was a guy in front of us who was at least 6'5'' and built like my husband. He also rode no prob. HTH

Butterbeer drooooooooooooool

Oh that does sound like good news thanks.

Oh that does sound like good news thanks.

I was seriously worried after reading all the reports on the other threads and in fact we had resided ourselves to the fact that hubby would not be able to ride ergo neither would I (I would not ride without him). We made sure and did the test seat and were over the moon he managed to ride, even though I had my eyes shut tight for 50% of it LOL

I keep forgetting to post about the lockers.
They are pretty horrendous!
I am talking about the ones actually within the ride, the area off to the right as you walk into the ride and the queue runs from the left.
*LOCKER YOUR BAGS ELSEWHERE BEFORE YOU GO INTO HOGSMEAD*
For the sake of a couple of bucks its so worth it. We had gone into the park after dinner one evening the first time we rode and it litterally took me 15 to get to a locker computer and then another 5-10 mins for a locker to open. Because they are always full up.
Its crazy manic with people EVERYWHERE and it's just a struggle because people push to get to the front, some because they want to open a locker and some just because they are pushing to the front. Sigh.
My biggest tip is to locker elsewhere will save you time and a TON of stress.
