I find this really worrying, which is also sad. I'm a bigger built guy anyhow, but have never really had a problem with Rita. Oblivion, yes, Rita no. Really disappointed about this.

Saying that, tried to ride RC at Disneyland Paris. When I couldnt fasten the belt on that, I was unceremoniously told to leave the ride. Nothing nice about it, just please get off.. I thought they were going to try something else, but no. Just got shunted away from the ride!

Man if alton keeps going for this "that'le do" approach i hate to think what this new ride will turn out like.

It's a pain in the arse this new seatbelt situation on Rita, I had no issues what so ever getting in Stealth, yet I only just fit in Rita the other week, I am a big lad but not 'fat' and shouldn't be having any issue to get into Rita.

It could present a very embarrasing situation for a lot of people who aren't even overweight, it needs sorting out and fast!
