Height Poll

So how tall is everyone here? Please include your gender and age.

5'11", male, 16 years old, and have barely grown in almost three years. Anyone know the average age when people stop growing? I'm desperately trying to find a way to grow 2 inches.

OP: You know the average height of adult males in the US is 5'9.3", right? You're above average.

I think 5'5" is a good height for a girl. And yeah, I knew about the average US height, but that's not really impressive at all. I've always wanted to be in the 6'1-6'3" range. I'm also pretty below average height to play high school basketball.

Everyone here is actually pretty tall so far. I know my school is filled with short people (especially the Asians).
