    I hit 5ft 11" at 13 and only grew 1/2" since then. I'm pissed off because I was always expected to end up around 6ft 6" with the rate I was growing, but stopped so suddenly.

    Before telling this to people, they are shocked to learn I played 2nd row for my town's U15 rugby team :)

    I stopped growing vertically when I hit 5ft11 at 18.It has since shifted to growing sideways,which has been rather fun.

    I was 5' 8" at 15. Now at 19 I'm 5' 9".

    I heard you'll stop growing at 21. I'll just sit around and see what happens.

    21 now, 5"10' or so, been steadily getting taller all through the mid-to-late teen years. Was a late-ish developer myself so wouldn't be surprised if I gained another cm or two.

    Early 20's but everyone's different. I don't see why its a major concern you are the height you are. Is penis size related to height i wonder. Is that what you are getting at here? (Im not trying to be a a-hole im seriously just wondering)

    In second year when I was 14 and even third year I was one of the shortest in the year. Eventually I got to 6 foot 2. Was 15-16 before the first growth spurt and didn't hit 6 foot til I was 20. Always had the big build though and I'd say I stopped growing just about when I turned 21.

    i was 15 when i stopped growing im 6ft 5 , i was 6,2 ft at 11 taller than all my teachers leaving primary school :D

    and remember that old saying " act your age not your shoe size "
    well when i was 10 my shoe size was 12 :D snd currently a Uk15 shoe ,

    although to be honest id rather be 6ft 3 with a size 11 foot , its bloody impossible find clothes and shoes i have no selection i go in to shop do you have size 15 shoes , first they laugh and then when they realise im serious say "eh no" :rolleyes:

    as for clothes i cant find tops / shirts that are long enough its a PITA

    I've been the shortest in the year, every year, all my life. I'm 4' 11.5 and I stopped growing at about 14.

    I'm 25 and I'm still hoping for a growth spurt.:)
