At what age does height growth actually stop ?

If you have flat feet or spinal problems, you can probably gain up to 3cm with regular stretching in the best-case scenario.

But of course, do you know of any cases where people have grown significantly between the ages of 20 and 25?
Exept these known case :

• Dennis Rodman: Grew 25 cm (5'9" to 6'7") between ages 19 and 21.
• Scottie Pippen: Shot up 18 cm (6'1" to 6'8") after age 18 while in college.
• Scott McTominay (Soccer): "At age 18, he stood at just 1.68 m (5'6"). Over the next 18 months, he experienced a massive growth spurt of 25 cm, reaching 1.93 m (6'4") by age 20"

Special mention (acromegaly) : Adam Rainer (1899–1950): The only person in recorded medical history to be classified as both a dwarf and a giant. At age 19, he stood at just 1.22 m (4'0"). In his 20s, a pituitary tumor caused severe acromegaly, triggering extreme adult growth. By his death at age 51, he reached 2.34 m (7'8").

If so, what would be the likely cause, given that in most cases the growth plates have closed by that age ?
The human body remains a mystery, except in cases of disease, such as acromegaly

Late bloomers could grow until 18-19
But most average people won’t grow after 17
