A 6'10” Disneyland Resort guest has posted multiple videos claiming cast members repeatedly prevented her from riding Space Mountain despite appearing to fit in accessible ride vehicles.
Instagram user Allie (@callmeallie32) shared footage from several attempts to experience the Tomorrowland roller coaster, documenting conversations with Disney cast members and her efforts to fit in different seat configurations.
First Attempt With Accessible Seats
Allie posted a video late last year showing herself testing ADA-accessible seats on Space Mountain. She wrote she was “tired of being told I can't ride because I'm too tall” and jokingly described herself as “6'10” and still growing.”
“I still enjoy trying though lol,” she captioned the footage.
In another post using the same video, Allie claimed she was “kicked off of” Space Mountain despite appearing to fit comfortably in the accessible vehicle:
“This isn't made for 6'10” people.”
Recent Rejection and Backstage Tour
A few weeks ago, Allie attempted Space Mountain again. She reported that Disney cast members refused to let her ride due to her height, posting a video of herself speaking with an attraction employee before being escorted from the building.
“They wouldn't let me on the ride because I was too tall,” she wrote.
Allie made the most of the disappointing situation, considering her escort out of the building a backstage tour through Space Mountain's behind-the-scenes areas: “It's not often Disneyland staff invite you behind the scenes in the park… They felt sorry for me because I was too tall to ride.”
Footage shows Allie walking through a backstage corridor at the attraction.
Height Restrictions Unclear
Space Mountain doesn't list maximum height restrictions on Disneyland Resort's website; only minimum height requirements are listed. Whether Allie exceeded undisclosed safety parameters or cast members applied guidelines inconsistently remains unclear from the videos.
Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort recommend guests concerned about fitting on attractions speak with cast members at ride entrances. Some attractions offer test seats or more accessible vehicles that may accommodate different body types.
