Red Dragon Reporter In A Fat Suit

Lauren weighs 9 stone 4 is and is 5 foot 6. She wears a size 10.
We dressed her in this fat suit that weighs 4 stone and makes her a size 24. The suit makes Lauren weigh 13 stone 4. That would give her an estimated BMI of 29.8. 30 is clinically obese.

She spent some time in the gym. See how she got on here.

aaaand... your point being? If ANYONE goes and runs on a treadmill with that silly contraption on their heart rate would be higher and they would get tired and sweaty. Here is a newsflash... you don't get the "fat experience" by donning a fat suit and wearing it for a few hours, and this does not give you the right to then fling out judgments or make some supposed mind blowing statement like you now know exactly how it feels to be fat. You don't and this is just pointless drivel.

Well, of course she had to stop- her body isn't used to this! She's wearing excess fabric, and her body has no idea what to do with it. She mentioned in the beginning of the video that she regularly goes to the gym. She's fit, but that doesn't mean that her body can just adapt to wearing a 4s suit! That's just silly.

First of all, isn't the point of working out to get hot and sweaty?

Is this journalism of any way shape and form? Some woman wears layers of latex and sweats (who works out in sweats now a days?) and finds herself hot and uncomfortable? Some woman tries to run her normal workout wearing a significant amount of extra weight and finds that her heart rate climbs unexpectedly high?

I'm so glad she investigated this, because I could never have guessed how this turned out!

Are you serious?? You got hot and sweaty and it was harder for you to do? Could that possibly be because you were wearing a FAT SUIT??? Why don't you actually interview a fat person! When your body and bones are used to a certain weight, you don't respond to life in the way some skinny chick in a fat suit would!

Oy vey!! So tired of the "fat suit" reports.

This has got to be the stupidest demonstration I've seen in ages. Do they really think they're proving anything, other than a thin person can't wear a fat suit without being uncomfortable?

Sheesh.

What exactly is the point of this video? That fat people shouldn't go to the gym? Of course she's hot and it's harder for her to run: she's wearing latex and is carrying an extra third of her body weight with no prior preparation. Ridiculous.

So you've proved that a naturally thin person can't suddenly carry around an extra 4 stone of weight comfortably.  Wow. You actually had to go to these lengths to figure that out?
