I'm a big fan of the movie "Gattaca" and that is what Vincent (Ethan Hawke) had to do to assume the identity of his mentor Jerome Morrow (Jude Law). It looked pretty painful.Seems like your legs would then be disproportionate to the rest of your body.

My ex-husband was Italian and only 5'6'' tall. I was his same height and after our divorce he married a woman 5'8''. When the men's platform shoes came into style he was wearing them with gusto since he was her height. I'm sure he was upset when those shoes went out of favor. LOLActually that's a very good point. Probably 3 inches would be enough to not make someone look out of proportion...
Women can be 6 inches taller in a nano second by wearing stiletto heels ...no bones broken there...well not until we try and walk downstairs in them..*yikes*..

Yes it's the same with William and Katherine. He's 6.3'' , and she wears high heels , and she's almost as tall as him. She looks lovely, but I do shudder when I see her carrying a child when she's got the totterers on , and especially when she's walking down the steps of a plane a babe in one arm, and holding the hand of another.
I don't think she was ''wild'' in the sense that we think sometimes of college kids, I think she was pretty much a good girl, and had no other intimate boyfriends , she's had her eye on William since being a young teen, so I think although she was fun to be around she didn't do anything which might disgrace herself. Remember they met at University so they've grown up together really.. ( although he did give her the big E for a period) they soon got back together quite quickly.
...and she earned herself the nickname of ''waity katie'' from the press, because she waited 9 years to marry him.. not really knowing if he would or not..
Bone marrow is soft, like wet cornmeal. By hollow, they mean the bone is like a tube, it's not solid. He's done 30 so far so it's obviously working, but someone has to be desperate to be taller to dish out that kind of money. And, according to the article, most of the men are highly paid professionals.
Perhaps it would be viable for basketball players where six more inches could give them an advantage, plus they have the money to pay for it.
True, but I doubt the Doc advertises the ones that didn't turn out so well. They just say, of course with any surgery there's a risk of complications.
Where there is money, there will always be ridiculous. Now, liposuction & gastric bypass are being advertised for women who want to lose 15 lbs so they can fit into a bathing suit for the summer. And any doctor can become "qualified" for cosmetic surgery by attending a weekend seminar held at hotels.
