> Turned out that the average weight of an American had increased in the decades since I suspect that part of the reason that the teenager fell out of the FreeFall drop tower ride in that horrifying video from a year or two ago was because he was too physically big to click the actual latch on the ride's locking mechanism. Who knows if the ride operator was trained on checking people or if he was scared of a confrontation or what the situation was there, but a lot of the world's engineering might not be designed for heavy people. Unfortunately people are going to suffer because of this.
