 Review of Batman The Ride @ Six Flags Great America

I was genuinely hurt by Batman, emotionally and physically. The ride is apparently too small for a man who is 62, because I was slightly hunched when they lowered the shoulder apparatus. This led to my vertebrae being totally decimated and my neck practically snapped during the clunky, rattling crap-stravaganza that is this ride. the theming was even weak considering that its friggin batman people. shame on you six flags.

If you couldnt fit in the seats correctly then why did you ride it???? Its not the rides fault you hunched over. I guess if you arent seated properly the ride could be uncomfortable, but everytime I ride it I find it to be pretty smooth and enjoyable.

it doesnt say that a guy 62 is too big. Im not some obese freak either...if theyd said, "a normal sized man will have his spine grinding against the unpadded seat" I would have thought twice. instead they snapped me in and I realized that this could be a problem and off I went.

I noticed that you liked raptor, but arent the seats the same size or are they differnt? They felt the same to me.

They felt the same to me. Im 62" and havent had a problem with any Inverts that Ive been on (something like 8 or 9), including two BTRs

I just find it hard to believe that a person whos 62" could not fit in the seats right. I mean thats an average height for men, so obvisously they would design the trains to accomodate a lot of people. Plus if you look at the pictures of batman and look at the restraints, they give plenty of room for shoulders. If you were sitting up straight in the seat with your head back there shouldnt have been any problem in my opinion.

Well, some of them do have a height limit of 64" or so, most notably, Deja Vu.

I know Raptor bangs the hell out of my head if Im sitting on the end, so now I never do. I do know Batman is a little rougher than Raptor, but I have never had any back pains from it. How the hell this guy rides Magnum XL and actually LIKES it and then whines about Batman, I have NO idea!
