    When it comes to high-speed attractions such as the many coasters, I totally get the size restrictions, but Mario Kart and Secret Life of Pets should have no issues accommodating people of ALL sizes! I hope they can make adjustments ahead of the Epic Universe opening in Florida.

    People who cannot transfer from their wheelchairs have long had very few, if any, opportunities to experience theme park attractions. There has been little uproar about this, including for Disney’s Pandora attractions, which is particularly ironic given Avatar’s leading male character was initially constrained to a wheelchair.

    Disney didn’t even bother to create an “observer” station where a wheelchair user could be on an unmoving platform but still experience the video. In similar fashion, I don’t think Mario Kart has an “observation tower” to track how a kart is progressing (or a window view, similar to NASCAR’s in-car view.

    Either of these would at least enable me to talk with my friends/family about a shared experience, even if I didn’t experience motion.
