a nice variation to danb&#39;s idea is tie your ankles to one mighty stallion and your wrists to another mighty stallion...with barb wire

wear high heels

Hello&#33;

I can be of help&#33;

I am an Augology Expert menaing the teaching about human physical growth and development and was once a member of the Human Growth Foundation.

I can give you information about if you have grown normally in relation to your expected growth curve which is determined by your parents height, How tall you are expected to be etc.

I need the following information the more you provide the more accurate I can be in my qualified guess. Some of the info you might not want to give openly in the forum if so then just PM me the info instead and I will then give the answer here in this thread:

-Your gender
-Your birth date I need both the month,year and day
-How tall are you and when was this height measured(which month)?
-How tall are your father and your mother?
-If your a boy you can ask your father which year he had his growth spurt(the year he started to grow fast in puberty)? he might not remember this if so just ask him if he was a early developer of if he was late in blooming&#33;.
-Whats your shoe shize??
-How does your body look like? is it long and slender and you have that typical teen age look with to long arms and big feet or are you more stuttered meaning wide and shortly built??
-Do you have a big sized head? if so does your father have that to?
-Do you look mature for your age?

Lots of questions I know but If you really want to know then I need that info.

Yeah sure. I think they&#39;re average height is at most an inch or two taller than yours, as ours is.


I hear the dutch are the tallest, again it&#39;s marginal tho&#39;.

Hello&#33;

Yes that is true&#33;

Most of our height gain is done during sleeping hours&#33;. The reason is because it would hurt our growth if we grew during waking ours when we move around. We would get twisted joints and strange back. The newly formed skelletal material in our joints is soft and weak and needs to be hardened before putting any strain on it and that takes a few hours. We grow when we are in REM sleep which means Rapid Eyes Movement sleep basically while we are dreaming&#33;.

So long hours of sleep is cruical during our puberty if we wanna reach our full height&#33;. 8 hours a day during week days and 10 hours during weekends should be enough&#33;.

Hello&#33;

Yes that is total BS&#33;

When we have stoped growing there is no way we can add extra centimeters(Inches) to our height naturally by using any device or subtsance its a ripp of and fraud. When the bone plates in our joints have hardened as they usually do when we are between 18-20 for men and 16-18 for women then it is finito no more growth&#33;. The only means to get taller is by cracking the bones and use a bone stretcher device with screws that lenghtens the bone when it grow back in the crack and it is very painfull and takes several months to do and leaves ugly scaring behind it is basically torture.

One thing though&#33; You can actually gain a little extra height between 30-50 if you are a man due to extra cartilage beeing created in your spine between discs so you can actually gain an extra 0.5 CM(1/5") in height during those years so basically almost nothing. If you have bad posture however you can gain in height about 1/2-1"(1.2-2.5 CM) by excercising certain techniques. One famous techniqe used by ballet dancers is the Pilates method which works many times to lenghten the spine&#33; http://www.pilatesmethodalliance.org/

Hello&#33;

No that is not the case&#33;

But your parents height gives the centile to follow and your expected not to deviate from that curve to much&#33;

How tall are you and how tall are yoru parents?

With that Info I can calculate if you have reached your full height of if you have not reached the full potential&#33;. This is however only relevant if you have a chance of continue growing but atleast might be interested in seeing if you have reached full potential from your gene set&#33;.

I have been drinking a lot of milk and sleeping for long periods of time recently and have definatley noticed a height boost....just about the only way to do it really, unless you want to hang upside down or have the operation.

Hello&#33;

Here some world Male 18-30 and Female 18-30 averages:

Asia:

Chinese(estern boys):

M:167.5CM(5&#39; 5 3/5") F: 154.5CM(5&#39;0 3/5")

Korean: 170CM(5&#39;6 3/5") F: 157CM(5&#39;1"3/5")

Japan: 172.5CM(5&#39;7 3/5") F: 162CM( 5&#39;3 3/5")*

Europe:

Spanish/Greek:176CM(5&#39;9 1/5") F:163CM (5&#39;4")

UK: 178CM(5&#39;10") F: 165CM (5&#39;4 4/5")

Sweden/Norway/Denmark/Finland/Germany/:180CM(5&#39;10 3/5") F:167CM(5&#39;5 3/5")

Holland: 183CM(6&#39;0") F: 170CM(5&#39;6 4/5")tallest in the world&#33;

USA/Canada: 178CM 5&#39;10" F:165CM(5&#39;4 4/5")

South America: No reliable data exists the only data is from certain adoption agencies and is made from to small groups to have any relecvance. But probably they are about the same as the Spanish people&#33;

Africa: No reliable data exists. There is many groups of people in Africa some of them really short and some extremly tall even taller then the dutch ones . But in recent decades the groups have blended in to generall populations for each country so no one knows their averages anymore. One famous example are the Tutsie population. Some groups within the Tutsies population lived very close together and as a result got inbreed and one of the things that came out of these mutations in combination with the climate where extreme height. The average height amongst these people once grew up to 6&#39;11"(211CM) for men and 6&#39;5"(195.5CM) for women in the 19&#39;th century so they where true giants. However at the end before war broke those groups appart they had fallen in average and at the end in the early 90&#39;s the average where about 6&#39;5" fo men and 5&#39;11" for women still extremely large but not as large as before. Now they have blended in the rest of the population in their respective country for instance Kenya so those giant sized populations no longer exists&#33;, Nigeria has some groups of people with large tall individuals and it is estimated that some groups in Nigeria is about 6&#39;1"(185.5CM) in average for male but that is not scientifically proven yeat&#33;.

*regarding Japan. As you might have noticed the difference in height between Japanese gilrs and men are smaller then for the rest of the i-countrys. This is unknown why it is so. But one theory is that it is the result of sexual preference amogst japanese males that have driven their height further then the male population another theory is that the female Estrogen hormone reacts more strongly to the recent diet changes then men do. The Japanese population has grown very fast during the past 2 decades as a result of more protein intake and less rice in their diet(they eat more like we do)and as a result it is great difference in size between generations. The older ones 40+ are smaller or much smaller then the young ones.

Hello&#33;

Growth hormone are released trough out the day by the pituitary gland which in turns stimulates the release of IGF-1 an important hormone that stimulates the bone plates to grow more cartilage which then turns in to bone mass. When we are finished growing we still is in need of Growth Hormone(but lower levels) for our well beeing as it is needed for building of mucsle mass,to repair damage from injuries and for our mood. If we lack growth hormone we will get depressed and experience low psychological drive. But that is uncommon&#33; Most depressions are not the result of a lack in Growth Hormone&#33;.

height isn&#39;t necessarily genetic - i&#39;m genetically Chinese but i was born and raised in England - my parents are about 5&#39;5" (my family is so average <_< ) and i&#39;m 5&#39;10"

lazy people tend to be taller, because they use less energy doing stuff, so it all goes into growing tall

Holland: 183CM(6&#39;0") F: 170CM(5&#39;6 4/5")tallest in the world&#33;

USA/Canada: 178CM 5&#39;10" F:165CM(5&#39;4 4/5")
height isn&#39;t necessarily genetic - i&#39;m genetically Chinese but i was born and raised in England - my parents are about 5&#39;5" (my family is so average <_< ) and i&#39;m 5&#39;10"

lazy people tend to be taller, because they use less energy doing stuff, so it all goes into growing tall [/b][/quote]
Following on from Joakim Agren&#39;s information about height. I&#39;d like to point out something he missed:

If you live on top of a hill you grow to be fucking huge cause there is less gravity. People who live on the 10th floor of an apt block are, on average, 3 inches taller than those at ground level. Also if you stay in bed your whole life you will grow to be 10 and a half foot tall.

Considering that there are 14 foot tall coma victims in Nepalese hospitals it just makes sense. Bigfoot lives in the mountains, coincidence too? Yetis live in snow covered peaks. The list goes on and on..

is it true that most people have a height between that of their parents ?

Nah, then over time everyone would be about the same.

The trick to being tall is to reincarnate as a Norwegian.

what do i need,milk? :01:
its not all its cracked up to be. Being a lanky fucker has its downsides as well. I suppose the penis size makes up for it though.
