How tall was everyone at 16? Thanks.
 
I'm 5'9-5'10 now (18 y/o), I don't think I've grown a lot since I was 16 though. I was maybe 5'8.
 
hey, it is one of the infamous joe survey questions
 
When I was 12, I was 5'10"
When I was 14, I was 5'11"
When I was 16, I was 5'11"
When I was 17, I reached 6'0"
I am now 18, and am still 6'0"

Way back when I was 12 though, my doctor "predicted" based on my growth rate and fellow family members' heights, I would be 6'4" when I graduated high school. When I went for my physical two years ago, he said I was basically done growing and 6'0" is as tall as I'll get. Thanks, doc.
 
12 I was about 5'6"
14 I was about 5'10"
16 I was about 5'11 3/4"
18 I am about 6'0"

Based on family history, I was supposed to be around 6'6". My uncle grew over a foot from the end of high school to the end of his first year in college, so I might grow a little bit more, considering I have grown maybe an inch at most since being in high school.
 
at 14 i stopped growing at a fraction under 6'2". however in the years of 14-18 i wacked on about 50 pounds... im lighter now but when i was still playing rugby i would have weighed in at 220 pounds. no shit. im down to about 197 according to the calculator on my phone. we work in kilos in australia...
 
6'0 right now at age 20 (I think when I was 16 I was about 5'10) and 180 lbs, give or take 5 lbs (it goes up and down like that alllll the time)

Well...I like women. Thanks for the offer, though!
 
At 15, I think I was about 5'11, 130. Now I'm 24, and I'm 6'5, 210.
 
I was 5'11" and 140 lbs., I think. I'm 6'2" and 160 lbs. now.
 
Im 6 foot, 145, (18 y/o) now and i was 5'10" at 16, still 145 though.
 
I was 5'10 at 16 and weighed like 125 pounds. Now I am 6'0 and like 170 with 5% body fat
 
I'm 17 now and I'm 6'2. So i reckon i was about 6'0 last year.
 
Funny thing is, I didn't think I'd grow past high school, but after just finishing my sophomore year of college (credit-wise), I grew a little more than an inch or two (maybe an inch and a half... haven't really measured myself to make sure, but everyone's been telling me how much taller I look). I came home a lot more out of shape than I used to be but had a much easier time dunking, because I grew to about 6'6.5" or so since September when I was around 6'4" and change.

So really, you never know when you'll stop growing, and it makes your height at the age of 15, 16, 17, etc. more irrelevant.
 
I'm 16 and around 6'1", 6'2"...I haven't grown much the past year though, so I probably won't reach 6'3".
 
I was only 5'7" at 16. I was kind of short.
 
I'm 17 and only about 5'8". I think the English and U.S. height average are different.
 
I was 6', not sure how much I weighed, maybe 165 at 16, now I'm 20, and I'm like 6 or 6' 1/2 180 lbs
