My friend is fat and he hates to ride roller coasters. So one day we're at Kings Dominion and i push him to get on a coaster so after alot of complaining he does (and it's a really mild kiddie coaster with no loops) so we get on and after we're done he's all like "That was so intense" and im all like "no it wasn't!" and then i have another friend whos fat and doesn't like coasters, so whats up with that?

I'm what you call a Cubby person and I don't like roller coasters because I have a fear of heights add that to speed when I can't control it, I'm just plain uncomfortable. Can't do the ferris wheel thing either.
I don't know that this is a "fat person" syndrome, many people don't like rollercoasters, that is why they have different rides for different likes.
Different strokes for different folks, I say.

i'm sorry to hearken to of your misery. in case you want to love your self, I distinctly advise Byron Katie's worksheets. shop 2 journals. One for writing down all your thoughts, that's somewhat sturdy for clearing out your anxieties and getting all your war onto paper, you may delete it on the instant after in case you will desire to, it somewhat is basically sturdy to truly see your demanding thinking. And the different may well be your gratitude magazine - write down each and all of the failings you're grateful for that handed off immediately. Sending you lots love and lots of hugs. xxxx

HAHA. srry i find tat funny, lol but i thnk its cuz first of all they might not fit in the roller coaster, and they might get stuck on trying to get out, and another reason is cuz since they are fat, they arent used to going too fast, like when they walk around and attempt to run, so it probably seems like alot faster to them then to regular ppl.

Perhaps they are afraid of being trapped in the narrow seats in the event of trouble. But more likely they are just not as adventuresome as their weight doesn't allow them the full range of experiences that others enjoy.

Maybe it is uncomfortable to be in the confined seats. Also there is probably a greater effect on them from the g-forces they feel as they have a greater mass.

I don't know really, but I"m not a small girl and I hate them too! Maybe it's because when I'm upside down, I'm thinking I'm going to throw up my guts!

I don't think you can say ALL fat people hate rollercoasters. It just a very common fear.

A coincidence.
There are overweight people who enjoy rollercoasters, just as there are thin people who don't.
You're rather quick to stereotype, aren't you?
