Thats physically impossible. :/

Well, it sounds impossible, but it certainly is possible. Have some grasp on the oddities of the human body before you say such things.

Actually I do, being my 5 uncles are doctors and I have learned from them, but I can't completely be sure until I know the exact height if the kid or teacher. Unlike you, I know the basics about pediatrics from studying with my cousins.
 
No it's not, just very rare. :3

I am 5'6"

Fear my height. I AM TALLER THAN ALL
Actually, depending on the height of the teacher, a kid can only be so tall normally, but there are conditions that allow them to get taller, like for example a overdoes of growth hormone.

There are four main genes in the human body that can determine the height a person can reach. Assuming this kid has gotten the best of all these genes, he can reach a rather disturbing height. There's also a pair of genes that determine how fast the person grows. However, all these genes can be affected by malnutrition. But I'm assuming said kid has never had such problems and is perfectly healthy.

I wish I was 6 ft, but I'm Indian, and there are not that many Indian people that tall D:
haha my generation broke that trend. Some of the tallest people in my school are asians. Im 6ft something myself and most asians are roughly my height or taller in my school.
 


I'd probably take you more seriously if you spelled overdose correctly, but moving on;

Well, when you type to fast, you sometimes get spelling errors right? And spell check doesn't seem to be working so I don't really see a spelling error until I post.

You are true, but in that amount of time, unless the kid has a disease or a order of some kind, shouldn't be able to reach above 5 ft.

I know, right? My roommate, who is Korean, is like..almost 6'3. The weird thing is, though, his parents are short :B

Thats actually like a lot of my friends there parents are short yet theyve gotten to 6ft. My mum is short while my dad is just under 6ft but apparetnly my grandad was a beast so I guess thats where my height comes from :D
 
It's entirely possible that she had some sort of disorder. The teacher was definitely in the 5'-6' area at least, I don't really remember. She might have been over 6'.

There is a disorder where you never stop growing, and people get up to like 8-9 feet. (Generally they die from it fairly early on. Maybe 20s-30s, although I don't really remember much about it.)
 
I agree. It seriously needs to start getting colder. I like wearing jackets, but it's hard to do so in this current weather.
 
I used to actually be the tallest in kindergarten, and then in second grade I was no longer the tallest in school, a kid named Jesse was. I noticed third grade and up there were even taller kids than me. I still feel tall at 5'10, but I don't know if I'm getting any taller.
