Quote from: las vegas baby on November 25, 2020, 05:10:02 PMhow someone can read that and think 'OK imma do it anyway"? might as well not offer the surgery and put such extremely depress/crazy people into life long medication and therapy


Because height affects someone's quality of life to arrive to that point of desperation where they would risk their life to change it.

does he also send the same message to people who enquire abt deformities? "its a very personal decision. one must outweigh the risks of losing life or limb to getting a few degrees of alignment"

dont say stuff like its different this is cosmetic bla bla bla. The risks are absolute. If you gonna lose legs / life from this you can also lose em from doing knock knee correction.

does someone who fixes his knock knees think "Ok I cant live like this. Imma risk my life and get this fixed" ?

Arthritis sucks too you know. No one loses legs from LL. LL saves "lost" legs. I'd rather kill myself than be disabled in autonomous movement though that is true. Disabled in movement is game over

LL is usually die or recover good not much in between unless u go to Russia and indian and betz and guuchet 0 death CLL btw in usa

CLL is not for the faint hearted
It is not for those who think their life will improve if they get taller
It is only for those who suffer so much from their lack of height that they are prepared to risk everything in the hope of getting to the height they want
Personally I am willing to risk death and being a cripple in a wheelchair in order to get to 5 10
Those who are not willing to take all the associated risks do not deserve to get taller in my opinion
Having said that, I think the risks are rather exaggetated in the sense that a good doctor, especially of the magnitude of Rozbruch, will be able to notice at which point your body has reached its limit, and if you stop lengthening when you are told to do so, you ll be completely fine
Death from CLL is a complete joke, the only case was some poor Indian from Guichet, and it was partly his fault

Riding a motorbike is also dangerous, it can damage nerves, muscles and joints, but people are still riding them.

Be careful if you do it, just like people that ride motorbikes.

I think this is just for liability purposes

He is listing the worst case scenario. I mean the worst case scenario for everything is bad. Worse case scenario for getting on a plane... you crash and die. Does this mean you will never fly again?

The rates of complication are pretty low now with the Stryde nail and being conservative in your lengthening and going to a good doctor with a strong history

O hey Cyborg!

Good luck on your youtube channel, love your vids!

If you were 5'7 and had 155k$, what are your thoughts on doing stryde tibia and femurs in Greece with Giotikas back to back two years from now like early 2022?

Budget too tight / not enough money money for complication surgeries for this in your opinion?

Don't you guys think that short dudes need to change their perspective and increase acceptance rather than going through this surgery?

Society won't change how it seems short men, nor women epsecially.
So the acceptance of a short person won't change how society sees it nor it will make his life better.

Short men who do LL don't have any psychological problem, society has a problem with short men and that makes them so desperate to risk a so major surgery.
Average or even more who want LL is a completely different topic and yes, some 6+ft tall men who want LL surely need psuchological assist to accept themselves as the problem is only on their mind.

Agreed. I understand that short men (under 5 foot 7 esp) are not seen as desirable by society.In fact, I was rejected by a girl yesterday for being short( I am 5 foot 6). But the issue here is surgical risk, time etc...How about this attitude- I know that a large portion of women would find me undesirable. However, a certain sect might find it a non-issue and would value other traits more.Let me have a relationship with one of these women and focus on my other passions/vocation and be accomplished? I know having this shift in mindset is easier said than done since I am unable to do it myself and struggle with it..
