I wouldn't say its very likely.. I would say that normal human height ends around 6'10.

Average NBA player is 6'6 and they are some of the best alround athletes alive.. this would be the case if they had abnormal biology.

I'm not saying its ideal socially though.. I am saving money at the moment, I found my surgeon! I had to take on a $100k a year job to finance this - it really motivated me

Most NBA players are slightly shorter than their listed height. Like Kobe is listed as 6'6" but his wife measured him just shy of 6'5".  But why did you want to do Limb shortening?

Because I don't feel comfortable being a walking freak-show in public.

I don't like having to duck through every door frame 100x per day

I don't like being the butt of boring height jokes constantly

I don't like feeling a full foot taller and incredibly awkward around 95% of women

I don't like not fitting any trousers

I don't like being constantly harrassed in bars

I don't like not fitting properly in any mode of transport

And finally because it theory this may extend my life by 3-5 years.. its a  -ton less blood to pump vertically
