    Do what they do in the cartoons, attach your arms and legs to ropes tied to horses and they should stretch you for those few extra feet you are looking for, it does work I'm taller than shaq.

    at you age the growth plates have most likely grown over the only possible thing you can do is you can have the long bones in your legs lengthened by a procedure called an ilizarov
    check it out.

    Hey Doc how's it going.

    I stopped growing at 15 and a half, and gave up by 16. IMO very few continue to grow up to 21, unless you have such low testosterone levels that your bone ends keep growing!

    i knew of a few people that grew when they were 20y old, it hapens but it is rare, once the growth plates are closed, that is it. the kid who asked this has no clue. ther inst a steroid in the world that can make you taller. growth hormone does work for those who have opne growth plates, at 18 years old, you missed the boat. this is as tall as you will get, if you want to get taller,get some shoe lifts and some doc martin boots

    again you are correct but dwarfs and if you have the money there is a painful procedure that can be done . it only works on the long bones of the body like arms and legs.
    A large metal pin is drilled through the bone at booth distal and proximal ends of the bone. Then an erector set of a kind is attached to the pins with a device that allwos the bone the pulled in opposite directions along the same axis. this pulling causes the bone to break and fracture at millimeter a day with each break new bone is formed and over time the bone is lengthened , up to 12 inches for the long bones in the body.
    I have seen several of these procedures done over the past 10 years with very good outcomes. while it be almost impossible to get the procedure done on a normal person of normal hight in russia where this procedure was developed it would just require the cash.
