    "It's A Fatass World Afterall"

    Back in 1963, when the boats that carry customers through Disneyland's "It's a Small World" ride were designed, the average male weighed 175lbs and the average female 135lbs.

    Not anymore. Nowadays the boats frequently bottom out, overloaded with extra flesh, says CalorieLab:

    The Small World ride now must accommodate adults who frequently weigh north of 200 pounds, which it often cannot do. Increasingly, overweighted boats get to certain points in the ride and bottom out, becoming stuck in the flume.

    The ride monitors attempt to leave empty seats on many boats to compensate for the hefty, but this routinely antagonizes the hundreds of paying customers waiting in line. When a boat does bottom out, a long line of other boats backs up behind it, their passengers slowly going mad from listening to the ride's theme song.

    The ride monitors must then track down the stuck boat and attempt tactfully to help a rider or two to exit at one of the emergency platforms, which the riders in question do not always deal with graciously.

    Disney is now undertaking a massive renovation in which the boats will be redesigned and the flume deepened to accommodate the additional poundage. It's a new, bigger world.

    thats crazy. although, its not uncommon for the average american man to be 200+ and be in perfect shape. People are more muscular then they used to be too. Its the great big giant fat asses that annoy me when it comes to shit like this. Nothing worse then the fat woman that takes up the space of 2 people who you either dont have room or wouldnt wanna sit next to her anyways.
