MY DUMBEST CRUISE MISTAKE

Editorial Summary

The creator shares a personal cautionary tale regarding the importance of adhering to weight limits during cruise excursions. He discusses the potential safety risks for larger travelers, noting that many activities, vehicles, and venues have specific weight requirements. To illustrate this point, he references a recent tragic incident in Florida where a young man passed away after exceeding the maximum weight limit on an amusement park ride. The creator recounts a specific experience from 2019 in Belize where he attempted to go ziplining despite knowing he was likely over the weight limit. Although he was eventually fitted into a harness with the help of friends and completed the activity without injury, he describes the experience as embarrassing and dangerous in hindsight. He concludes by advising fellow cruisers, particularly those who are plus size or big and tall, to carefully check all weight requirements for excursions to ensure their safety. He emphasizes that while it may be disappointing to miss an activity, following these guidelines is essential for personal well being.
