I am 14 and only 5'2". And that feels really short. Will things like hanging from a chinup bar help lengthen my stature?!

Anyways I want serious answers and advice.

Stilts. In other news...I can't believe you requested serious answers about how to "legally make yourself taller". There aren't any serious answers.

You should'nt ever mess with your body type, you might screw up your hormones, and be unable to do certain things.

Your height is generally determined genetically. However, to get as tall as your genetics will allow, make sure you lay off the caffeine and other products which can stop your growth, and drink plenty of milk to get that extra inch. Other than that, thank your parents :P

there is a medical procedure where your legs are surgically broken and extended. i don't know if it's practiced anymore, but you should look into it if you're willing to give up walking for a few months in exchange for several extra inches.

Well, you could try hormone therapy, though that's generally reserved for people with serious medical conditions, and probably wouldn't have too much effect on you. Other than that, having your legs amputated, and then replacing them with over-sized prosthetics?

You're pretty short. I don't think there's a way you can get taller. Unless they have surgery for that or something.

They have a way where they break your legs, but instead of casts, they hold the bottom half about just enough so that it can heal from the top half, and wait for it to seal up. It'll get you taller, at the price of months and months of pain.

Hanging from a chin-up bar will only make your arms longer and then you'll be hobbling round like a chimp.

Get your parents to wake you up one day by one of them pulling you by the legs, and the other pulling you by the arms. They should lift you completely in the air. That will make you grow. I saw this on "Braniac" a scientific show, so it was "Scientifically proven" to be true. I don't remember how much you will grow, or if the effect wears off, but you gotta be sleeping right before they do it. I am completely serious. Give it a try.

There are doctors out there who will prescribe growth hormones. However, there have been no studies that have examined what the long term effects of taking growth hormones are, and the short term side effects are not exactly pleasant.

Well I'm 6'7 and how I got this tall is really very simple...

You see every morning for 19 years I start my day off with a bowl of awsomeness

I then go to school and the awsomeness oozes from my pores and makes me seem bigger to everybody else

Because I seem so big to everybody who sees me, time and space altered and made me humongous...In reality I stand 4'2" and have no fingers...

Nah JK, My dad is 6'10, he played basketball for Marshall University in 70-74 (Go Herd) and my mom is 5'10".

I have a 6'5" brother...its all genetics.

Human Growth Hormone. It is legal. But it is very expensive. Ask your parents to talk to your physician about it if you're interested.
