Cracks me up some people want to paint a 40" waist as average. There’s a healthy middle ground between outright shaming people for being fat, and pretending being obese is healthy and desirable.

I’m borderline obese per BMI (5'10" 205) but have a 34" waist. This ride is for thin, healthy weight, overweight, and slightly obese people (that aren’t 6'5" in addition to being obese). Anyone of close to average height who has larger than a 40 inch waist is significantly obese and has bigger (pun not intended)…

Agreed. About 36" waist currently as a guy and classify as overweight/borderline obese. Our increased sizes have become normalized to a terrifying degree.

I think the facts speak for themselves. The park doesnt have to accommodate for people of a certain size when it comes to safety. And dont be fooled, im 6'4" with a 42" waistline coming up on 300 lbs. If I saw this and was going to universal, you bet I would be working some of that weight off. Also, if this is a bad…

While I think they probably should have designed this to be more accommodating, but less than 40" waistline isn’t “thin”, at least for dudes.
