Sum of All Thrills - Innovations @ EPCOT NOT Pooh-Sized Friendly!!

[Ms. Heimlich]

We just returned from WDW a couple of weeks ago and I thought I would share our experience with the Sum of All Thrills at Innoventions.

This experience is awesome, as you get to build/design your own virtual roller coaster, then on a robotic arm, "ride" your creation.

My reason for posting is this...

The seat and harness you are placed in during the "ride" experience may not be suitable for all sized people (pooh sized).

The seat has edges that come up either side that limit the width of the person's derriere that would be accommodated.

I just barely fit (I had to wiggle a bit) to ride. I am a ladies size 16/18.

This attraction was really neat and I HIGHLY recommend it. Just thought I would warn/make you aware!

Thanks for the heads up I havn't seen any pictures of the actual seats yet. And it helps tremendously to see people in them for comparisions sake.

Further down the road next to this attraction is a test chair people can sit in to see if they fit and if it will make them freak out when the hood cones down. My son is a scaredy cat major league but he does thus every time we go because he controls the ride.

Thankyou so much for posting the pictures. Pictures always help!!

You are not pooh sized by any means, you're voluptuous.

We had to skip this ride since my husband is pooh sized. It was a bummer. He didn't even get close to getting in the seat.

I would rather die than ride that anyway

Ok.. slight exagerration.. but my claustraphobia would be off the charts. I'd bust out of that thing like the Hulk and run screaming from the building

WHEW! Great info - thanks for posting the picture and the info!

I shall skip this as well, clearly this ride is not built for a woman with some curves!

Agreed!

Thanks for posting this and for providing the pics - it's super helpful!

This is what originally happened with the Harry Potter ride since the mechanics are similar. Universal has designed some different seats since then but maybe it can't be done with this particular smaller ride.

You go girl!
