In 2021, Jason Vaughn was stuck. The pandemic had knocked him back, and an old fear still ran his life: the belief that his dreams could wait until he lost weight, a finish line that kept moving further away. Then he found Pammie Plus Parks, a YouTube channel that was as warm as it was useful, and something shifted.

Jason booked a trip to Disney World.

That visit changed everything. For the first time, he saw what plus-size travel could actually look like. Eight months later, he posted a lighthearted video about "fat testing" the rides at Disney, and it took off overnight: more than 10,000 new followers in a single week.

He hasn't slowed down since. Jason has fat tested more than a 40 theme parks, building guides, resources, and content made specifically for plus-size travelers, and he moved to Orlando to go all in. The part that means the most to him is the messages: people telling him he gave them the courage to travel without fear, the same courage he once had to find for himself.

Today, through Fat Tested Travel, Jason turns his own vulnerability into something thousands of people share, a community built on showing up, taking up space, and going anyway.
