Zak is exactly who DAS is for. Del on the other hand with his "PTSD" has issues with flying on an airline where he might get something in return but is fine to try hand gliding or take a helicopter flight when it's on a freebie.Del from Get Binky is currently wearing the Sunflower lanyard for hidden disabilities. They are/were away with Adventures with Zak who has autism. Totally understand that but not sure why Del and his daughter should benefit from someone elses family's child.
He said in the last vlog that he had PTSD. Now I'm in no position to diagnose whether he has or hasn't but again it is definitely open to abuse. Do the parks ever query this? Do Sunflower query it? Or can I myself just falsely claim PTSD and walk to front of every queue? I've no idea.
Amusing that his first challenge (with Visit Orlando) was to go flying in a hanglider but was too fat and not allowed to fly!!!! Loads of sheep in the comments still congratulating him for accepting the challenge!! Surely you don't congratulate someone for not doing something!
The Sunflower scheme is a fantastic idea but I do question why this needs promoting to the general public. The people who should know about it are the customer facing employees that can assist without making a big fuss.
From those that I know that have hidden disabilities would hate to wear something that if everyone knew what it meant would mean that people would stare and take fake pity.
Yeah it is a difficult one as I wish I had known years ago about DAS pass as my niece wouldn't do any form of lines due to some mental health issues and would have made our life a lot easier so letting people know about it would be a good thing. However there are people that will do anything to not pay and jump a queue who ruin this service for people who genuinely need it. I think people are damned if they do and damned if they don't mention it so a very fine balancing act. I suspect the Misters don't really care what people think though, but put your life out to the public there are some things you may have to explain properly to stop judgement.I get what you’re saying, people are always going to wonder, when you mention you’ve utilized DSA. But at the same time, people would DEFINITELY judge them if they didn’t disclose it and someone witnessed them using DSA at the parks. Can you imagine?
I don’t feel like they’re deliberately abusing the system either. At the end of the day, you never know what people are dealing with that you may not know about.
Agreed, I enjoy their videos, too. They don’t take themselves too seriously and their joy at being back seems genuine.
