Not exactly. They set the height limits based on children that are 40 inches with typical shoes on (with a large margin included for safety).

In reality, the primary reason height is choosen is...

Haunted Mansion had a great rehab with lots of changes. I'm pretty sure that was done since 2007, but not positive.

Disney is very strict about measuring and they will not let her on if her head does not touch the 40 stick they measure with. However,I don't think you will have a problem as long as she isn't...

We always ride the train a couple times during our stay. It's a great relaxing trip. Love the adventureland music on the train and the sights.

I'd agree with the others on a Cars ride.

I'd also like to see Indy and Nemo from DL brought to WDW (2 of the very best Disney rides IMO).

I miss Eastern Airlines "If you had wings" ride (now toy story). I remember riding this many times as a kid since it was a freebie back when almost everything used tickets. Not a great ride by...

I absolutely agree with the bathroom issue. I don't think we ever had to do this with our kids, but I have absolutely no issue with this and would not hesitate to do this with a young child (or even...

I went in Feb during soft opening and thought it was OK. The shows during the day determine the finalists that attend the main show at night. We went to a day show. I'm sure the final show of the...

The music in the exit of Space Mtn (before the current version). I don't think this was the original, but I liked it much better than the current.

interesting thread.

First, let me say that I think EE is much more impressive with a working Yeti and it was the highlight of the ride for me back when it was working. Seeing something so big...

I believe this is allowed, we've been doing it for years. We usually pack a soft-sided cooler without ice, but loaded with sandwiches, chips, drinks (no glass), some kind of dessert, etc. and have...

It's perfect for a 5 yr old. I can't remember if there is a height requirement, but the 16mth and 2 yr old might be a little young.

My wife and I will both ride this along with the kids. The...

GrumpyFan hit it on the nose. This is the biggest reasons for the back check. If there was not a bag check for everyone, Disney would have a hard time pulling a single suspicious person aside and...

I remember reading somewhere about Shaq riding space Mtn. while at WDW. It stuck in my mind at the time becuase it is hard to imagine. Not sure if it's true or not, but he would certainly be...

I have a different interpretation of the OP's question. The rules are not 40" barefoot, they are 40" with shoes. There is grey area as far as shoe thickness, but that is up to the CM's judgement. ...

We did this tour in last month and thought it was great. You get to ride out to the round house on the Lilly Belle, which is only used for photo shoots and the morning ceremony. They talk about how...

I was there mid 70's a few times and the Contemporary air hockey is a vivid memory (weird what you remember some times). Another big memory was the the "If you had wings" ride (eastern airlines). ...

Not a joke, but maybe not making my point well. The actual safety criteria of the ride are usually based on several factors (not just height). When a company certifies a ride they consider all...

They cut off by height because it is easy to manage large amounts of people that way, not because it is the best judge of safety. If they could, they would weigh you, measure you, determine your...

As far as those concerned about safety, I agree in principle. However, the height requirements are part of the engineering aspects of the ride and have a great deal of margin built in just like the...

I agree with most of the other posters that it really depends on the kid and situation. My boys (now 11 and 12) know the parks very well and webhave given them some selective independence at WDW...

Getting in line and holding a spot for others that can't get in line at the same time?????????? That's OK????!!!!!!

Am I missing something? Isn't that the actual definition of cutting in line? ...

We usually get to the park about a half hour before official park opening, but they typically open the turnstiles about 15 minutes before park opening. By half hour before park opening, there are...

We were at WDW first week of Feb. and didn't experience anything too crazy at DHS or the other parks. I can tell you there was no running because we were one of the first 10 people or so on TSM and...

If I were a betting man, I would say there will never be another sub ride besides the one running at DL. It is much cheaper to build rides with technology now vs. building rides with extreme...
