Bravo! We used SM as the motivation to get our 5YO to eat his broccoli for 6 months ahead of our last trip, so Iām totally on board with this! Would you consider making your chart to scale so the 32" - 54" rows are 32" - 54" above the floor? Go big or go home!

I thought about doing that (and did it on an older version) but there are so many more rides at 40" than the others that itās hard to put it to scale. FWIW, the 54" is aligned with 54" on the scale.

I have a shirt that says ā I love big mutts and I cannot lieā but refuse to wear it any more because I am stuck with said song in my head for the rest of the day.

Edit: had to double check whose thread i was on. If @Jeff_AZ is gonna post Seinfeld references on other posts, Iām confident heāll respect a little Sir Mix-a-lot on his

Youāve inspired me to add little ride photos at the 40" and 44" marks of the door post we used to measure DD5. Definitely caught her attention.
I just had to explain to DW it was all about good nutrition.

One thing Iāve been wondering about is why DINOSAUR has a 40" height requirement compared to 46" for Indiana Jones, despite the ride vehicles and track layout purportedly being identical. Any ideas why that might be? Maybe theyāre not so identical after all? Maybe more motion on IJ?

First thought was just the general regulatory differences between FL and CA, but then checked other rides, and Space is actually higher at MK (are the two versions noticeably different in intensity?) and Splash and BTMR are the same at both, so probably not that. Guessing thereās more movement on IJ where it would be more important to have your feet on the floor for added stability? Wish I could speak from experience here, but DLR remains elusive to me. Some day.

I feel that way about the Tomorrowland Speedway. The Magic Kingdom shouldnāt smell like that.

Yes, the two rides are pretty different. MK version is more like Matterhorn at DL (which is 42" vs. 44" for MK Space). DL Space is 4 rows of 2 side-by-side, almost like MK Splash but separated into two cars. EDIT: actually 6 rows of 2.
IJ feels more wild to me than Dinosaur. Canāt quite put my finger on it. But others have posted ride schematics that show an identical track layout, so who knows.

DL IJ definitely felt more ājostlingā to me than WDW Dinosaur, so it could be that.

This is a great idea! Two of my kids have a genetic disorder that affects their growth. DS12 has worn the same size pants for four years now. DD7 is so tiny, and she also doesnāt speak very well, so people think sheās a lot younger than she is. I think the cast members thought I was lying when I said she was 7. The CM at MFSR asked me three times if I was sure she was 7. Yes, I promise! She is just a shorty! (hence her nickname, Peanut.) We were fortunate that she was just barely squeeking by for the height requirements on the rides she wanted to ride. But only at Disney World- other theme parks like Kennywood and Cedar Point, itās Kiddie land for us! (Hello Camp Snoopy!) This is a really great idea! I might steal it
