Hello guys I wanna ask this question because me and my younger brother have gotten an x-ray to find out if we can still grow taller and the doctor said that my younger brothers growth plates has closed while mine isn't, he is also 6'2 barefoot while I'm 5'10 also barefoot.

factors such as genetics, diet during pregnancy/early life, parents age during pregnancy and how long your mum waited before getting pregnant again all have effects, its likely a combination of all various factors that caused your brother to be 5'10.

my mom had my three older brothers way earlier and they're all 6'2+, meanwhile I'm 6'0.6 and my other brother is 5'10(only one not above 6 foot, brutal)

I'm the 5'10 and older than my brother yet his taller than me already but my growth plates still isn't close tho while my brothers is closed
 
Depends on when you guys hit puberty aswell as other invisible genetic factors
