Too tall for rides?

[jasmith34]

DH is kinda tall (6'4). Will he have any problems riding any of the rides or should he be okay?

I've been to Disney with a friend who is 6'7" and as I recall he was able to ride just about everything that we wanted to ride.

My DH is 6'4" and was able to ride everything. He always complains that the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is uncomfortable, but he is able to ride.

My husband is 6'6" and some of the rides are not especially comfortable for him, but he does fit on everything. Just an FYI - many of the rides at Disneyland were a LOT harder for him to squeeze into than anything at WDW.

He'll be fine. He may feel like he's going to hit his head on space mountain, but he won't.

I'm 6'4" and feel most Disney rides are easy to deal with. Much more so than any other amusement parks with bigger thrill rides. As was mentioned, some of the train rides can get cozy, but just tell him to use the "cross your ankles" trick.

Don't sit in the front seat of Space Mountain. I'm just 6' and left with major bruises on my shins. Turns out the front seat has less leg room than the others (the back passengers legs go under the seat ahead of them).

Yep. I'm 6'4". When we saw the ride photo for it I was clearly ducking.

My husband is 6'4, he ducks the whole time on space mountain...so do I and I'm 5'2

My husband is 6' 9" and he was fine on all the rides we went on. He hasn't been on space mountain though so I can't speak to that. 7DMT is cramped for leg room but he was fine. For reference he is approx 210 lbs.

At 6'4", I find Rock-n-Roller Coaster to be very uncomfortable. When my daughter was younger, Barnstormer, while more comfortable than RNR, was difficult to load/unload (thankfully this ride has fallen from favor as my daughter got older). No real problems on other rides though I do seem to get extra wet on Splash Mountain.

He may find the legroom uncomfortable in some rides. As some mentioned, the front on Space Mountain has less legroom, so he can just ask for a different seat. Test Track also has a weird slope on the floor of the front seat, which bothered my buddy who is both tall and on the larger side, but he said the back seat was fine.

DS son is 6'4". He was uncomfortable in the first row on Space Mountain, but everything else was just fine.

He even slept well on the Poly's daybed as he likes to sleep on his side.

Me to, you just feel like your head is going to come off..lol

Mine is 6'6" and has never had an issue. I do tell him to keep his arms down-he doesn't always listen He finds Thunder Mt to be horribly uncomfortable for his knees.

 

[Micca]

Tell him if he stands up during the ride all bets are off

6'6" here. Fine on all rides. For RnR, make sure to use the odd number rows, lots more leg room.

My dad is 6'5 and would agree with all of the previous posts. He road the mine train and was cramped, but said he would so it again. He does fit in Space Mountian, but none of us really care for it so we don't usually ride it. His head doesn't fit in the Doom Buggies on HM so he sits forward in the seat and it hangs out, but he's fine in the shell cars on both Ariel and Nemo. Overall, he has no problems at Disney (unfortunately the same can't be said for another theme park that shall remain unnamed )!

Im 6'4 and as previously said, do not sit in the first seat of space mountain. Everything else is just fine.

I never realized that until my last trip, but the front of each segment has a ton more legroom than the back!!

Seriously, I wonder how anyone taller than my 6'3" could squeeze into the back of each segment.
