I think its safe to say that im not the tree, im the bush... im 13 years old and 5"3.5'... i'll still grow... my doctor said i will grow up to 5"7' unles i start stretching more

I am 18 years old and about 6'4". It's really not that great, especially because I'm a bit of a kluts. Yay for tripping over things hitting several things at once, while a short person would probably just hit the ground and not get the corner of a desk shoved into their ribs.

I am 16 years old and about 6 feet tall... but I doesn't seem to stop streching

well i have long legs and i am the top cross country runner in my high school, i run a 17:23 3-mile
and i set the school record for running a 10:48 two mile.
any way sometimes its hard to hook up with girls cause lots are really short, and every one asks "how tall r u?"

Ps im now 15 and 6'5
Pss there is a girl in my school who is 6'8

17 and I think a little over six feet. Still got a few growth spurts left though... I love my genes...

Well, some of them.

Up untill a little while ago i was 5"5, but now I am a staggering 5"6!!!

I'm about 184 cm tall, I believe that is somewhere in the area between 6.2 feet and 6.3 feet right? Well, 6.3 sounds better than 6.2 so I'll stick with that. Since I'm 15 years old at the moment, I'm sure I'll keep growing until I'm 18.

The fact that I practice Rugby should also ensure me being a hulking beast of a man in a few years.

I seem to have stopped growing, now sticking at 1.62 metres. It's taller than a lot of people from the older generation I know, but a heck of a lot shorter than the latest generation. I have a cousin who's 2.5 years younger (15), and he sticks out above me like a fricking giant! Ok, just about a head taller, no need to exaggerate.

If I've done the conversion math right, that's only five feet two inches or so. You're even shorter than I am (5'5").

I'm not tall. I'm vertically challenged. I'm 5'2". and 17 (female of course). Ho hum, apparently guys like the petite gals.

I'm very tall- 20 years old, around 5'11"... and a girl Sometimes I appreciate my height, but most of the time it's a hassle. For more practical it is nice, but it sucks being taller then most guys.

I'm not as old as Zarrexaij and I'm 5.8 feet tall. Out of most my family (cousins, specifically) I'm about in third place in terms of hieght.... but the the two ahead of me are older by a few years. By the time I'm through growing I'll be (by my dad's estimate) six foot something. (I'm taller than both my parents).

The Priest is approximately 6'4", although I havent seen a doctor in a while,

Funny thing though, I am the tallest in my whole family tree...

Nature's like...Dude, wtf?

Ah, genetics... I'm 8 inches (~19 cm, for you folks on the metric system) taller than my mother and sister. Of course, I'm maybe 2 inches shorter than my dad, so I'm not really a family outlier (I'm 6 feet tall, my dad is about 6'2'', and my uncles are pretty much within that range). Most of the men in my clan are close to 6 feet tall (~1.83 m), woman on my mother's side of the family are short-to-average in height, and things get messy on my dad's side of things.

Maybe you better reword that sentance to "I'm taller than my mother and sister by 8 inches (thats...)". Right now there is a 9 word gap after you say "I'm 8 inches" before reaching "taller"

Grammer, what would we do without it???

Seriously, What would, we, a forum commmunity, which types on keyboards, located near the monitor, do?

While we'ere making corrections...



'sentence'



'grammar'

Ring Ring! It's the Grammar Police! Run for your lives!

Anyways, to stay relevant to the subject. I'm the tallest one in my immediate family. My father is actually the runt of the family now. It's amusing at times.

I am the shortest but oldest of four sisters and to make matters worse, all three of them were always 'borrowing' my clothes in hs and stretching them out

Tall women are hot.

Err, I better stay on topic. Anyway, I'm not tall.
