Harry Potter Ride, Not For Everyone

Fan of the Harry Potter movies and books have been super excited to make their way to Universal Studios to check out the newest attraction, "Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey." However some fans are not fans of the ride or the theme park. It turns the ride is not for everyone... issues have been coming up regarding larger girthed people not being able to ride the ride. Universal anticipated this dilemma by placing test seats outside the ride. Passenger must be able to click all three safety buckles to go on the ride.
Harry Potter fan, Jeff Guillaume of Michigan is upset at the park because at 265 pounds he couldn't go on the ride. Other fan, Banks Lee took his inability to fit on the ride (at 310 pounds) as a challenge to himself to start a diet with a blog, tracking his weight loss journey to go on the ride.
