What is the highest minimum height you've ever heard of for riding an amusement park ride?

Just wondering because I'm 4'9" and while folks joke about if I can ride this ride or that ride I've never found one I couldn't (since I reached my adult height). I ask them "So what ride do you know of that I can't go on?" Crickets. Just curious if anyone actually has come across one.

Height restrictions are usually put in place for kids rides; that's been my experience anyway. |

Stand up roller coasters. Probably, but have you seen any with more than a 54" requirement?

First roller coaster I ever went on they let me bypass the height requirement pole, because it was the late 70's and they were a bunch of teenage potheads working there. My spellcheck underlines "cokeheads" but not "potheads" by the way. It also underlines "spellcheck". Weird.

Minimum heights are for kids...otherwise most midgets would be barred from rides.

54” is the max at Kennywood...which is the closest amusement park to me. Only one ride has it and that’s the Volcano aka the Enterprise. Not real sure why it’s there honestly, you sit in an enclosed car and the thing spins around in circles.
