Bones can thicken and get larger at any age, Just look at acromegaly patients. Even older ones get larger feet, hands, jaws, browridges at age 30.
Considering this, as a result of this thickening, can a bone get thicker in a "vertical" direction making you grow slightly taller as a result of spinal disks getting thicker. This is not a result of the bones growing in the same way as they do in before the growth plates close. Its just simply the bones robust, and get slightly larger.
Heres maurice tillet. A man who got acromegaly after his growth plates had closed. But if you look at him his body looks very disproportionate. His torso looks extremely long in comparison to his legs.
This is either explained by him
1. simply naturally having a large torso
Or
2. His spinal disks became a lot thicker, and therefore grew in all dimentions making his torso longer, while his legs stayed mostly the same because of theres only 2 bones which can get thicker while there 23 spinal discs to get thicker, and in turn grow your torso length.
But idk, i just came up with this theory and i have no back whatsoever
Thoughts?
