Yeah, my father is 6'2 and my uncles and cousins are even taller, up to 6'5. I was very disappointed, and used to even feel cheated by nature, to never reach even six feet, even though that height, I admit, is unnecessary.
I don't expect this guy who rants to understand us. He is 5'9". Also his friends who did it was 20 years ago, as he mentioned. Obviously there were different methods back then and plus we do not know the doctor who performed their surgery. I don't need anyone to tell me not to do this surgery, I bet you wouldn't be ranting if LL wasn't dangerous and it was very safe.
I would rather live less, be in pain and become taller rather than SUFFER all my life with this crapty height I never chose and not to mention it excludes all the other good things I have. People say I am handsome, social, nice, clever etc... But then I hear the "but you are short" or "omg I'm a girl and I'm taller than you!" or "wow I wasn't expecting you to be this short" or "dude how tall are you, you are short". My height makes me look/feel ugly, it ruins me, it makes me reject opportunities in my life. I am very sad to be this height... I'M SICK OF IT. So please, kindly FCK OFF... Mind your own business, it is impossible for everyone to agree with your opinion, some people will do LL for cosmetic reasons and it is their choice even though they never chose their height. And yes, I am willing to get my legs chopped in order to be happy, I would do ANYTHING to become taller, I never asked for anything my whole life, I was never spoiled, I just want to be taller, happy. GET OVER IT.
ok, here we go, thank you for your post. however I have some sad things to tell you. psychologically people invert things when they look at other peoples flaws, a thief will always think people are trying to steal from him, a lyre will always think people are trying to deceive him, a kind person will be easier to take advantage of because they just expect that people are all kind like them.
now for you. you came here preaching about how we are all ignorant and how you the master of knowledge are here to educate us.
the truth is that it is in fact you who is ignorant. you have inverted your flaws on other people when your mental faculties tried to address their/our alleged flaws.
specifically you made all statements 1nce except 1 statement which you through repetition showed that it possesses more importance than your other phrases or quotes.
Quote YOU WILL HAVE PROBLEMS 15-25 years after the surgery. And people do this, all for what? A couple of centimetres/inches?
Quote and lose so much sleep, and for what, the sake of a few centimetres or inches? Seriously, it is the most stupidest, ridiculous, retarded, unnatural thing to do ever do.
clearly you are ignorant on why people do this surgery, you have not even the slightest understanding on how those few cm changes a persons life. in fact you think that a few inches does absolutely nothing. this is very ignorant. this lack of understanding as others pointed out is because you are 5"9. you get no discrimination, and so you are the kind of person who can not understand something unless you experience it. while others can understand something even if they have not experienced it. this shows you have a lower mental ability in regards to perception of others unless you have personally experienced something.
this picture(below) is the best way I can show you how those "few cm" can change a persons life. you see the look in the girls eyes. well that is the look people always report changing after they get ll. you seem to think that we should just forget about that look and only you should get it. in short you don't care if we get that look because it doesn't affect you. you don't understand what life is like without that look because you never experienced it, and because your ignorant to this feeling you preach that we are stupid and ignorant. no my friend your statements come from lack of understanding, not from amazing knowledge.
also, bones twisted will involve damage to ligaments so I doubt it could be better for the patient, bones are designed to snap naturally , this is why they fracture. so your theory on cutting bones is rubbish, bones will heal back stronger than before and are biologically designed to snap in this fashion, the only way your theory could ring true is if you were discussing the gigli saw method. but I doubt that you even know what im talking about. because you seem to know nothing about anything.
my suggestion. if your going to educate people on the untold amazing knowledge you possess, at least learn basic medical biology on bones, and also learn how to understand people without needing to experience it yourself. all you have done is come here and call everyone mental while incorrectly telling them that bones cant be cut in a manner they were designed to break in. this doesn't do much for your credibility when you make such obvious mistakes. now im not saying your friends don't have bone problems, but it certainly had nothing to do with their bones being cut instead of twisted.
by the way I just want to emphasize that you repeatedly stated that height gives no benefits, that is by far the most ignorant statement you could have made, effectively stating that its all In our heads, and we are all mental , because height..... those few inches or cm...... does next to nothing for us. in essence your saying that height while it possibly could give us an insignificant advantage is largely just something we imagine will help us.
let me educate you. height discrimination comes in 2 forms, internal from your own mind and perception, and external from other people whether it be discrimination or additional favor for no reason except for the height. everyone will have each form(internal, and external) of height discrimination to different degrees. some people may even have only 1 of the 2 categories. each person is different.
external discrimination can only be solved by "those few cm".
How do you KNOW there will be issued 25 years from now? Who do you know that got the surgery done that long ago and is now having problems? Oh, right, no one.
I'm all for opinions, but you are stating it as fact. Even if you are accurate, living your whole life unhappy is worse than turning 50 or 60 and having some pains in your leg.
These similar threads keep cropping up here lately. But it is very true, that living an unhappy and unfulfilling life is never, ever a good thing for anyone. If this is something that you want bad enough, then without a doubt you must take the plunge and just do it. Sure the earlier the better, but still it's never too late. Believe me, in the end you will be very happy that you did, and this is even with leg pain 25 years down the road. I know that I can always cross that road when I get to it, and I'm sure I'll know how to deal well with any pain, when and if it does come.

My parents said me its a crazy thing, what will few inches give you in life? i replied them "If GOD gives me 1 day of Life with Tall height along a cancer and 100 years of Life with Short Height , i will go for that very 1 day and die happily rather than living 100 years of life with pain and dying every single second of 100 years" and they were like 
... lool

Exactly. Basically we are not living. I know I'm definitely not. The fact that I am still here, alive, is a suffering for me. My only hope is this surgery. And yes, I suffered this much from my height, for so many years. I can't take it anymore, and I am very dedicated to this surgery...
PS this guy who wrote this post will probably never return, he could be a troll. Either way, what I said is true.
Quote from: danscharf on March 09, 2015, 01:24:49 PMI have made an account specially to tell you all the truth, and reality about this retarded, ridiculous surgery.
I do not want to sound harsh, and sound like I am accusing anybody, but here goes:
This surgery is dangerous, I repeat, DANGEROUS. This is bone CUTTING, not TWISTING, CUTTING! Even if you dodge every single infection or muscle or nerve problem during the surgery, do you honestly think you are set for life? Honestly, any normal human being (even uneducated ones) will tell you that you can't chop a bone in half and get away with it. YOU WILL, i repeat, YOU WILL HAVE PROBLEMS 15-25 years after the surgery. And people do this, all for what? A couple of centimetres/inches?
You go through something worse than child birth, have psychotic breakdowns, take painkillers and possibly become addicted, and lose so much sleep, and for what, the sake of a few centimetres or inches? Seriously, it is the most stupidest, ridiculous, retarded, unnatural thing to do ever do. I see alot of stupid stuff in this world, and people who decide to do this are suffering from pure retardation and excuse my langauge, but are a bunch of spastics!
It makes more sense to do what Tom Cruise does and just to wear lift shoes. You gain more from lifts than you do from this stupid, outrageous surgery. http://www.increasingshoes.com/?source=adwords&gclid=CO2r4aaum8QCFUaWvQodxGoAEg
Go there and buy those shoes. About 30,000 cheaper than getting stupid surgery.
I am not sure if i will get banned for typing all of this, but this had to be said. I will bet anybody to walk down the road and ask anybody (even an idiot) if you think you should get your bones cut in half to grow taller, and I 100% guarantee you they will say "DO NOT GET IT DONE!" Even ask a 6 foot/7 foot tall girl and she will say the same thing. Nobody wants you to get your bones broken to get taller, it's just the stupidest thing EVER, and I mean, EVER!
Please remember all of this, because you can't get a bone chopped in half. You will suffer years and years later, and it's all for nothing.
Please, people, do not get this done. It's for your own good. It's been banned in many Countries and for a good reason.
Please do not get this surgery done. It's stupid.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.
Dan
Do you actually have any evidence for what you say?
this guy is obviously promoting these shoes
if you go the right dr, youll be fine
you will never change your life and be happy just by wearing shoes..
you will always be nervous about having to take the shoes off, walking oddly,etc... not to mention theres only a limited amount of extra height you actually get
you do not gain moe from lifts than surgery...
