Am i normal? I think i may be special.

Im 18 and am 6 foot 2 with a 6 foot 3 armspand and have ridiculously long legs. Im male and only weigh 135 pounds. Is this normal?

define “normal” to start with. 50% of boy;s reach a min of 5ft 9 inches and an average weight of 125lbs. So, no you are not special, just a part of the normal bell curve for your age.

You still got time to grow because you don’t stop growing until you’re like 25ish.

Normaly growth stops during or just after puberty. By age 19 you should have achieved your maximum height. If not and you continue to grow there may be an underlaying medical explanation.

Perfectly normal.

Arm-span equalling height was demonstrated to me in our physics class, way back when. It’s not exact, but it’s a rough guide.

Another rough guide is that of determining ‘final’ height from the height when puberty began. I think there’s an equation for it, but can’t remember.

I was 6’2” in high school with about the same weight. I was in boys 16-18 briefs until 20 yo and size 28 jeans until mid 20s. I am now 56 and I have since put on more weight and up to 36 jeans. So I am sure you will fill in in the years to come. For now enjoy being thin. I wish I was back to that size. Lol.

You got a good point there because now where I’m so tall people always ask me to reach things for them and there are times I wish I was shouter then I wouldn’t hit my head on things so often.

On the bright side, seeing as your profile says you’re a DL, it might be possible for you to squeeze into baby diapers, pullups, and the likes. When I first had the means to get/buy diapers, I just barely fit into Pampers size 7. I wished I was smaller or had been able to buy them earlier so that I could still fit into them normally and have a more authentic child-like experience.
