  1. It's about what I expected to read when I clicked on the link. Good to hear he praises Alton for their care of him and his family... a bit crass to say 'they said i don't have to sue to get a settlement from them' though... Clearly he's not in that much pain to be making those sorts of comments (although the Media probably probed in that direction anyway)... That said - he's obviously very angry that they 'didn't know there was a car stuck on the track'... his question ironically placed below this photo "how could they not have spotted a great big train painted yellow and black..." - yes - how could they miss a yellow and black train - amongst all that yellow and black?

  2. *big middle finger to the residents* Hopefully, they expend a lot of money fighting in court, and lose... and have to move. *dare to dream*

  3. Being 'significant' myself, the best option I can say is try it and see. Scooby is not friendly to tall people (legs become an issue,)or larger people so if there is a long queue, come back later, or ask the op on the door if you can jump ahead, see if you fit and then re-join the queue. At dreamworld be wary of wipeout the last time i went on it i burst a small blood vessel in my eye. The first time I went on it 8 times with no problems, a few years and a few kilos later a different story. The plane ride at dreamworld (no idea what it is called at the moment...) some of the planes are slightly bigger than others... aim for the back row... I had a few issues getting in that row, but i got on... the middle row was not possible. I sincerely hope he comes across and you both have a great time

  4. As you say - if you carry most of it around your tummy, you may be ok. I've visited parks with friends who carried most around the midsection, and were able to 'lift' up, lock the bar in and then relax over the top on rides with lapbars like Scooby. Every ride is going to be different - and depend on where you're carrying it. Silver Bullet at Knott's for example is unforgiving to those with a wide backside, but perfectly ok for those with a big tummy... I say - go on a quieter day when an operator is more inclined to spend a little extra time trying to see if they can make it work, and give everything a go... you never know...

  5. Superman Escape can be a little bit iffy for larger guests. My advice for Wild West Falls if your unsure, sit in your own row so you can spread out a little bit to get more comfortable. It also makes it easier for the lap bar to come down. Batwing is fairly lenient too. From an ex MW op If you have any other questions I will do my best to help out.

  6. Thank you so much. Majority of my weight has been put on through medications. I had to be on steroids for life threatening asthma for three years and ballooned to 120kg in my teenage years. Thankfully once I got my tonsils out it got rid of my asthma except for when I'm sick so I got to come off the steroids but I had already gained all of the weight from them. Then when I was on the pill I put on 20kg in 3 years. As soon as my ex walked out I got taken off the pill because the doctors didnt like how much weight I had gained on it. Since then my weight has pretty much stayed consistent between 135-140kg. People automatically see fat people and judge them because of their size. It's hilarious when people tell me to stop eating fatty foods. The fact my weight was gained from meds not food is shown by the fact that I'm obese but have normal sugar levels, optimum blood pressure and LOW cholestoral lol. And thank you. Excitement is an understatement. We have been long distance since 2010 and in 76 days we find out what is happening in our future. I'm getting very nervous for the answer though. Your kind words are very much appreciated

  7. I've compiled a factual and accurate video about Eureka Mountain, it's history, layout and theming. If anyone would like to check it out you can see it here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIM2wZD_bBI

  9. I more or less handed myself in. My name of my account is Andrew H (which is my real name), I posted a photo of me and the day I entered Dreamworld. I bought a world pass which had all my details and a photo of me so it wasn't very hard for Dreamworld to track me down. I put my real info up deliberately, not because I'm an idiot, but because I wanted to be accountable. A member from guest services came and spoke to me next time I tried to enter the park. After a period of discussions with guest services I'm able to re-enter the park, so long as I abide by the rules, which I gave my word that I would. Everything's back to normal then. I'd never try to go back of house again, and I would recommend against it. Feel free to message me if you want to ask anything more (and please stop hating on me).
