When he said that the physical pain of 9/10 was less compared to the emotional pain he felt when people mocked him for his height. We truly live in a pathetic society.
Lol it's cool to say that until no one wants to marry you unless you are filthy rich...India even looks of men don't matter..but their height is considered a big big factor
It seems that his childless marriage make him too anxious. Its easier to divorce and find some poor woman to marry but he seems to want higher 'caste' women who won't look at him because of his height.
The same people who mocked him and bullied him for his height will now mock him and bully him for having done the surgery to increase height. That's the type of society we live in. I hope everything goes well for this man.
Literally facts. People will first taunt you, treat u like sh*t and when u get plastic surgery or any surgery to escape those comments and treatment...even then they'll taunt you even more. Pathetic.
@@f12736 true but common people in India don't have knowledge of mental health that when they should check a therapist. People around him would have mocked him even for that.
I had this surgery but because of the deformity in my leg, not because of height (even tho I'm just 156cm) my doctor decided not to lenghten my leg because of a high risk of complications, still I had a nerve failure and haven't fully recovered to this day. To know that people do this for beauty just blows my ming. It's the most painfull, excruciating thing in medicine...
Most women won't even give a second look at a man if he is below 5'10. Imagine living a life where you can barely form relationships because women are obsessed with height and wanting to be "protected" as an excuse
@@isla2416 u missed, it was one of the best hospitals and specialist in Europe. Complications during lizarov happen really often. I couldn't lengthen my legs but I corrected them and now I'm healthy.
Same here. I had this surgery to fix a broken leg and ankle that failed to heal properly and was misaligned/shorter than it should be. Was an absolutely excruciating experience to pull your leg apart day after day, feeling all your tendons and tissues stretch as you turn the dials on the frame. I can't believe people would do it purely for aesthetic/vanity reasons, I wouldn't wish the experience on my worst enemy.
@@DCTriv exactly, you literally cut your leg in pieces and wait for your body to heal-even then your limbs won't ever be as strong and flexible as they were prior the surgery. The bones, tissues, muscles will be weaker and changed, it's a surgery you can consider when everything else fails. The fact that medicine allows doctors to perform it on healthy people who don't even need it is disgusting, this should be illegal.
_”I studied hard, became an engineer and got a good job. I can speak nine languages. I hold a Masters in business administration and a Master of Arts in two subjects. I have a total of five degrees. Despite that no matter where I go most people point out my height, even people who have known me for 15+ years…No one looks at your work or knowledge Everybody taunts me about my height”_ Everyday I’m alive I further find a reason to have no hope for humanity. People are shit
It’s so bouncable if you tool up on the right vibe, look at kevin hart he’d own their low witted ass in 1 second, he’s actually quite muscular so probably wouldn’t want to fight him either
Thats why quality of education matters the most, you might have 10 freakin degrees and they dont reflect in your personality and attitude then you are illiterate. An educated mind can never get bullied.
This man has accomplished so much in life. 5 degrees, speaks 9 languages, and has a great engineering job, married, but unfortunately the judgements of others has forced this wonderful person to take drastic measures upon himself. Whatever the case I wish him success and peace!
he could have ignored them but he felt the judgement of others is valid and took this decision, part of the problem is also people not accepting what they are
I think people should understand that Body-shaming is not only about calling someone fat or thin, it is also calling out someone's height as short or tall. The definition of body shaming is so narrow that people think calling someone fat only accounts for it.
The same women that use a height filter on tinder (only men taller 6 ft) also complain about bodyshaming and cat calling. That's women for you in a nutshell.
The moral of the story is we should never humiliate anyone to such an extent that person decide to take such a high risk under such a extreme mental trauma
@@SonofSkyrim01 Ya, that advise doesn't work in the Real World my friend. No matter how much we like to pretend, we still care about what other People think of us. The People who pretend that they don't care what you think about them are just trying to cope with some past bad experience, but they still inherently care about what you think. That's Human Nature, you can't beat or cheat nature.
He's funny too 14:22. As well as educated & accomplished in many other ways. It's sad that he did it bc of others' issue with his height. He said people have more problem with his height than he does. Hope he feels better now.
He's achieved a lot and can speak 9 different languages, all to risk it. To each there own, it's his life, his body, his choice. I know 99.9% of us wouldn't do what he's doing with everything he's achieved in his life so far.
@@OGSinisterPotato He's got a good job based on having his own placing in the video, I would think he's doing fine. I'm sure there's always woman out there who would look pass his height. Sucks that people have taunted him for so long he has to go through this
@@awpmaster - They key to beating anxiety is not allowing others to define you. A wise man once told me, "as defined by whom?" If he's making decisions to alter his body to fit the expectation of strangers then he's already lost the battle. He has allowed himself to be defined. You're 100% right. This world is filled with insecure people trying to define you with the sole purpose of making themselves feel superior. But every once in a while you meet a pure soul who cherishes you for who you are. These people are selfless and compassionate and most importantly, honest. These are the people you should allow to define you. If the man in the video waited just a little longer he would have realised this too.
he's almost certainly lying about the languages. it's not possible to have functional adult proficiency in that many languages without making it the sole focus of your life.
The reason why he faced so many criticism for his height is simply because the world is such a jealous place and he is such an accomplished man that the jealous just can't find something to scrutinise him other than his height.
no, its because life is competitive, and everyone has their issues. attacking others is an easy way for people to feel better by feeling superior, and the easiest way to get that feeling is attacking others over insecurities and weakness. People who do this generally do so out of being hurt themselves in some way, but thats many people even if self induced, so we have many people who mock and bully other. some forms of bullying is completely healthy, biological and constructive, but thats defined by exclusively targeting negative qualities that are changable and typically ones that limit your contribution to groups.
Brother, you are amazing. I am 5'1'' male with male pattern baldness at 25. I have acne all over my face but none of my friends ever mention them to me. If someone does, they are not my friends. It's okay not to be average. :)
Wow you really got good friends. For me the worst then is that my own family comments on it.Wish people would understand God made us this way and it's not by choice
@@sepomushaukwa9006 My family suspects I'm using meth due to the acne on my face. So I'm getting a blood test done to prove I don't. But even after that they won't stop accusing and suspecting.
I am 31 years old and have 158 cm height (almost the same as his). I can genuinely understand his pain and the reasons behind this drastic decision. In school, fellow students constantly bullied and made fun of me because of my height. No one cared how intelligent I was. At my job, many of my colleagues made fun of me. No one cared how productive I was. Knowingly and unknowingly I was always humiliated because of my height.
It’s very unfortunate that this brilliant man went so far just to make others happy. During thanksgiving I went to a wedding where the groom is 5’ and the bride is 5’11, no joke. The groom has the ego of a 6’4 man and is very accomplished professional in Education. I’m sure people weren’t kind to him either especially when he was younger but his spirit radiates through the room. He has a large group of friends and his wife adores him. Learn to love yourself and others will gravitate towards you.
It’s a societal thing. I’ve seen it myself I’m not ultra short about 5’8 often times those who are taller are always preferred more than those who are shorter. It’s personally never stopped me from doing anything, but I think it’s something the world needs to let go of.
You are right. I really feel sad for this man. And anyone else who try to change their natural body. But this is specially too shocking and painful and scary to see. My name is Ehtisham. I live In Pakistan.
It's possible, but the man had to make up for the height loss, that's just the brutal reality. I'm sure he learned quickly that height matters because it triggers a woman's instincts, biologically speaking. It isn't just a societal thing. You see this in all cultures.
The main moral of the story here is how damaging can body shaming/bullying be. It's so sad to see how a very accomplished man like him, can resort to such an outlandish cosmetic surgery just to stop being shamed. I feel for him and hope this surgery will not make him end up in a wheelchair.
I feel equally pissed and sad for this man. Breaking your bone twice and be on a wheelchair for a year just because of what other people have to say ? All this to still be below average height, he only said that his height bothers others more then him, that in itself should stop him for going through with this procedure. His body will never be the same again and the pain and discomfort will never go.
The man was letting out all of his frustation from all those years, hearing him talk about how he could've been so successful if not only because of his height brings a tear to my eyes, stay strong brother!!
@Siddharth Sriram its not just that, in iran most boys i see today are taller than their fathers myself included im 180cm i think that's 5.11 my younger brother is taller than me it breaks my heart because lack of proper nourishment and lack of sleep during childhood is also a problem children who sleep or nap or have the peaceful environment to do so often grow to 5.10 5.11 more than its genetics they also grow more facial hair than their fathers milk helps with bone density not height most parents get it wrong
Who's stopping him from becoming a world class body building like Manohar Aich, he was 4 feet 11 inch. Stephen Hawking had a deformity that literally stopped him from moving but wrote wonders. Mukesh Ambani isn't only 165 did it stop him from becoming Successful. Kevin hart is 5'4 ..he is a work renowned comedian and celebrity. He is just weak minded .
@@ilsagita5257 its easier said than done plus you are judging him while not knowing what he's been through also he has accomplished way more than you academically and the fact that you are calling him weak proves you are an immature child
I agree. I'm of an Asian background, too, and unfortunately, body-shaming is very common in Asian cultures, much more so than in the West. It's a very image-oriented society.
Never calling anyone short again. His first few words were enough for me to realize how much trauma he has built up inside. "Many people, not me, have always had a problem with my height." Broke my heart because I'm taller than most people at 6ft but never realized calling people short is F'ing rude asf. Just grew up with that bad habit unfortunately.
It’s not a bad thing to call them short. I lie just under 5’9 so there are a lot of people shorter and taller than me and we all make fun of heights. It’s stupid. I can make fun of a friend who is tall and I can make fun of someone who short it doesn’t matter. It’s more pathetic to take these jokes or taunting seriously, like actually you are pathetic, so what if you are short, so what if you are tall, so what. Dumb concept
@@syasyaishavingfun a lot of other physical discriminations are frowned upon though such as racism and fat-phobia and discrimination based on eye color.. Not saying they don't happen but they're treated as something bad.
My uncle had this done and went through months and months of pain - afterwards he gained four inches but now is wheelchair bound and has a stick for a leg.
For guys it's height and girls it's color! We call ourselves modern India but our minds are still stuck in the old ages! When will our society understand it's not OK to body shame anyone! Making jokes or telling someone they are short or too tall or too thin or dark is also not OK! It's very disturbing mentally. This needs to be taught at school levels and also at home!
Not really. Most men may feel a little insecure about height but women are constantly bombarded by colorism in every day life. Colorism is also intertwined with classicism. On top of that India is violently misogynistic and women are constantly demeaned and objectified. The problems are not comparable at all.
The problem is more widespread and not just in India. People really need a different kind of education. The world we live in is dominated by consumerism and not compassion.
Why are these men so desperate? I’m a very short man myself (5’0”) and I’m grateful to God for the way He created me. I have nothing to complain about with regards to my height. I’m a regular gym goer and have a rather strong physique which I’m proud of.
The pain 9/10 is true. I was involved in a vehicular accident before which caused my tibia to have infections. My ilizarov is now 6 months with me. The first two months were so painful that everytime i adjust the screws (1mm a day) i can feel my skin being torn. My 3rd month was where i started walking without the aide of crutch or anything to hold on. Now in my 5-7th month i can now do basic exercises such as squats, knee strengthening etc. The challenging part of having this ilizarov is the inability to walk for a long time after the surgery. My doctors suspected me having knee contractions due to movement restraints before. Life with ilizarov is really not easy.
Wow are you the guy in the film? I have been thinking of having this done myself and would love to talk to you about it all. There's nothing more in this world I want more then to be taller. Please respond
@@james2479 I know you didn’t ask me but do gather as much information as you can before you do the procedure, talk to people and be conscious of the risks. Even if it’s in accidents or for cosmetics the Ilizarov can cause problems. I’ve used a Ilizarov apparatus for broken bones but I wouldn’t put my feet on the floor for a long time, which I think is why seeing the man on the documentary walking after his operation gave me chills, but I understand those are probably different things with different instructions post-operative. Read about what you can do to increase your chance of not having any kind of complications and do them like your life depends on it. I know some cases of infections can happen to even the most careful post operative patient, but if you do the procedure take every step of the post operative procedure like religion. Like cleaning the wounds to reduce chance of infection, and follow your doctors orders on what you should and should not do. The dude on the documentary from what I saw tried to tightening the screws more than he should, so you’ll have to come in terms that you’ll have to follow everything strictly, and for a long time. Get a good doctor with lots of experience as well. The best you can. I say, do it, bro, if that’s what you want. But be careful with recovery please. If not, maybe cognitive behavioral therapy could help you also to accept yourself and be happy with who you are - but this also takes months, lots and lots of therapy and find one therapist that you bond with, which is always beneficial. Whatever you do, be safe dude. Wish you the best. Just really do everything you can and more with tips and how you can prevent infections and subsequent pain, and even other complications, but know that even if you do everything right you still can get one, but you’re lowering your risks considerably. But never to 0. Find a doctor who will instruct you how to rest your leg correctly, how much complete resting/walking you should do exactly, what you should and should not, on details. Cleaning routine, everything. One doctor that passes you confidence and seem to care about your well-being as they should (but not all do). Be safe.
Update: The amount of snarky and "clever" comments here is the exact reason why I'm so glad that my husband doesn't let people like this bother him at all. It's just funny how these men commenting specifically searched and chose to watch this kind of content just to leave more insults. Just shows how they try so hard to make others feel bad, just so they can feel better about themselves. How pathetic is that? 🤭 I am 5'2 and my husband is a couple inches shorter than me. He's been bullied since he was young but he is now a very confident and accomplished man. I admire his resilience and strength because the world can be very ruthless and unforgiving. I hope this man finds peace and good support system to help him.
im 6'2, its weird cause I dont feel like a tall man a lot of the time cause of my environment, after seeing the lengths men will go to in order for other people to respect it hurts me, I can obviously never relate to the cruelty ppl have to go through cause of it but it definitely inspires you to always treat all men with the upmost respect, humans are cruel.
My brother had this procedure done in the eighties because he was born one leg shorter than the other. He ended getting addicted to opiates early in life because of the pain from the surgery and subsequent physical therapy. He died five years ago from a fentanyl od. He is at peace now no more pain. Rip JJS.
I'm addicted to fentanyl patches I'm from London uk the dr put me on them for sciatica 10 years now I can't get off them they ruined my life.Im so sorry fir your loss
God bless his heart , to have to go through being body shamed is the worst . I am in my late 40’s and people laugh and joke constantly when I have to run errands . It’s ridiculous and sickening when folks are cruel and these are adults . I was born with a deformity where one leg is slightly larger then the other and walk with a limp . Glad my mother declined that type of surgery when I was born . The bullying needs to stop and we need to try and do better and treat people with respect .
5'4" gang. the second girl i ever dated was 6ft. really drove in that height didn't matter as much as i thought. we the same height as Skrillex, Michael J. Fox, Seth Green, Frankie Muniz, Bruno Mars, Picasso, Lil Uzi Vert, Lil Wayne, the list goes on. we up, king 👑
I'm a short guy myself (5'5 ft. or 165 cm), I have always been insecure about my height and I used to want to get this kind of medical surgery to increase my height even a few inches. But now that I have grown more mature, I have just accepted that it is what it is, and am now always trying to be content with what I have.
That’s maturity, acceptance comes with it. Sad that so many grown ups behave like kids in times like now than before because of influences and influencers.
A person's height is all about their genes and the environment they grew up in. Both of these are literally out of anyone's control. It's quite ridiculous to me when I see a person mocking another about something that's impossible for them to change. It's wise to either ignore or call out such people on their foolishness.
Brother...instead putting urself so into cruel procedure....accept urself ur god has big plans with you(hindu,muslim,Christian n oters) all will flow or be underground later,,,,,keep tour heart strong...n belive in your holy book...
That's average height in India which is 5'5. It's definitely not 5'8, only one website claims that. Countless other websites has listed average Indian male as 5'5 for years.
Man height shaming is worse than fat shaming. You can’t do anything about someone’s height but you can absolutely change your weight in a few months. You can change your income, lifestyle and wealth in a few years too. How is it okay to make people feel that they are inadequate when you know there is nothing they can do about it. This should be taught or ingrained in to people from an early age.
I feel for him. He sounds like a brilliant man. I can’t imagine the mental torment he has had to suffer all his life. Too bad he does not know he is enough the way he was created.
I knew a girl who had this procedure because she had leukemia as a child and her growth stopped at 149 cm. After years of complications she was eventually 15 cm taller, but her bones were weaker so she could no longer run and jump, as they would just snap. The thing is that after all this, her body is very disproportionate, and that is what people notices now. So not worth it. We are all different. Unconditional love is the answer.
@@MO-ss5mjthere's no telling she wouldn't have had the same complications with a 10cm increase instead of 15. The fact is that 149cm is just fine, especially for a woman, compared to the risk of ruining your life
I am a "short" man myself and I have felt many of the same things that he's going through especially in the marriage market. It's really sad that a man's intellect, his ability, honesty, and ability to provide means little unless he's absolutely within the top 1% of society. I cannot say what he's doing is wrong as it's his life and his body. All I can hope for is that he recovers completely and speedily and get's the respect and attention that he was denied for so long. Best of luck brother!
I honestly don't get women's obsession with men's height. Both of my very serious relationships were with men pretty much the same height as me. Move to Portugal, because at 5ft 5 I'm taller than most the women I come across!
I'm a short guy. I attended 7 millitary recruitments both in army and state forces but got rejected due to less than a centimetre short. Despite such rejections I learnt that being employed does not make you happy. The secret ingredient is accept who you are and how far you have come to achieve your dream. Don't let an illusion (dream) decide for your mental & physical weakness. Learn to fight another war as the sun rises.
I got rejected too for some job because I wasn't tall enough, but they kindly explained to me that it's not by esthetic but for good reason they chose taller people.
This broke my heart i am literally crying, as a meducal professional i've seen many maaany people with that external fixator devices that got infected and i've done many wound dressing for them , the pain is unimaginable my heart was shattered into pieces when i remembered their faces in pain To see someone willingly undergoing this type of procedure made me even sadder , i understand his pain i feel him and he doesn't had to go through all that pain just to please people There's nothing wrong with him , his height is normal and he is a handsome and successful man and he deserves to be loved for who is he If he just had more support and affirmative words he would've avoided all that unnecessary pain Bless his heart i hope he fully recovered from that procedure and he is in a better place now both mentally and physically
I understand why he is having this done though. As strange as that may seem, being an American man who is under six feet...I completely get it. Look at dating apps as an example. There was a study done, I think by one of the major universities, that found that 80% of women won't even engage in conversation with a man if he is under six feet. In other words, they don't even see you as a man. Then people wonder why men go to such great lengths to fix that?
@@williamcarter1665Trust me, man: using dating apps to meet women and growing complexes about those lascivious and superficial women judging you as too short for them is the real pathetic shit. Live your fkin life at its best, man: just do what you love and love will get to you. If you desperately look for love, it will paradoxically escape from you. Just give yourself a chance. Fuck height, if you find a gem of a woman who appreciates you spontaneously, literally loving you with her heart in her hands. If what you told here is you story, my man, keep me informed down here. I'm sure it'll be all right! 💪 Greetings from Italy
I'm sorry, obviously this is the result of bullying.... but sometimes I ask myself, how badly must one hate themselves... to carry out an essentially experimental surgery, that is at most 60% effective, where the negatives outweigh the positive. I'm talking about literal years worth of rehabilitation, constant microfractures, and excruciating pain
@@Josh-iz5kb It's sad, I agree. If I had the money and was able to take the time off from work to have this done, I would instead move overseas where men aren't judged for their height. I was raised in Turkey and I don't remember the Turks being obsessed with height as Americans are.
After 20-30 years of getting the exact same critique from people, I honestly can't blame him at all. People in the comments keep commenting about how he needs self confidence, this, and that, but imagine the thing you were bullied for as a kid. Imagine that never got left behind and haunted you into your adult life? Into a life that's ever more online and harder than ever to escape from. Im also a short lad who gets jokingly asked if I'd get this procedure, and get called some awful stuff as allusions to my height. But that guy was dealing with the same struggle I do for longer than I've been alive. He's got literal decades of torment on me that when I consider my own emotions on the matter, I can see how that was where he ended up. I could sit here with measly 10+ years of bullying, and cast judgment, and say something like "I get made fun of but I just deal with it", but that doesn't address the fact this is a global intergenerational problem that we as a species need to get over. People are different in a plethora of ways, let's not let something as superficial as height be where we start casting stones.
Hear hear from someone with above average height. It is crazy being so fussed with height. It means nothing. If every short person was made 6' tall or above tomorrow it would just change the bar for shortness. It is just a relative thing with no practical value in modern life. Apart from the risks this poor man took to stop the bullying (and no doubt rejection from women - often short themselves and well matched to his height) there have been even worse interventions. In Australia there was a belief that really short people should be given HGH to bring up their height and social status. Natural HGH was obtained from corpses and a lot got hit with a batch that gave them brain tumors. Hey for the record I worked with a guy who was quite short. When he got hit with the usual quip at a work function: "David stand on a chair so we can see you." He replied "No! You stand on a chair if you want to see me!" Classic and something that short people should file away.
@@johnbennett7407 or we can stop making quips about people's height without consideration about how people feel about it. If the poor guy decided to kill himself instead of paying for a surgery, you wouldn't have that opinion. You'd think it's awful people kept taunting him his whole life and say that isn't fair. Instead of going on a tirade blaming him and saying he should just do this and do that, maybe realize the documentary literally outlined how he tried that and women didn't want him.
@@MissInformer Thanks for that lecture. I've got a suggestion for you also. If you are going to respond to a "tirade" at least read more than the last paragraph. It looks kind of silly when you argue with and attack someone with the same viewpoint.
This story breaks my heart. Sometimes people do this kind of like making fun of someone's height, weight and complexity just because they can feel superior. 2 years back I gained weight and people were constantly around me pin-pointing me every time, constantly telling me that I needed to loose weight or else I will be fat. Then I started working due to work pressure I lost weight then again "The same people" started telling me I need to gain weight as I look like a stick. Recently a boy told me I need to gain weight as boys prefer "MASS" on the body. My entire life people have commented on my body, weight, color or something or other. This is not going to stop. This whole scenario made me realise nothing can make people around us happy we just need to be strong and happy and that will be our revenge on them. I still have insecurities but that doesn't mean I will let people get on my mind and ruin me. I am perfect and I am strong. I pray to god that Mukesh has a speedy recovery and lives happier life.
@@aditya-ml6km l totally agree with you hands down. It was just an example that l shared. Edit - Also, for some people due to medical conditions it's tough to change their weight. Doesn't matter how much they try.
@@gothrough123mm No that's totally false. What do you mean by a medical condition? Thyroid disorder can slow down metabolism and the body consumes fewer calories for base operations. But this effect is not as bad as some fat people want others to believe. Let's say you are a fit person who eats 2400 calories/day. But suddenly you develop thyroid issues and due to your slower metabolism, your body requires only 2000 calories/day. That means you are eating 400 calories more each day. It will take you approximately 3 months to gain 5 kilograms with your otherwise "healthy eating". Note that a difference of 400 calories is on the upper end. Most people would have a small change in their metabolism rate. For a difference of 200 calories, it will take you 6 months to gain 5 kilograms of weight. It will take you "years" to become extremely obese. Approximately 3 years to gain 25 kilograms. Now my questions to you are..... Why did you allow yourself to become obese? We are talking about years. Why didn't you exercise and try to burn an extra 200 calories? Just 25 minutes of daily cycling at a moderate pace. This is an example of a person with a thyroid issue, who eats healthy, who eats only 200 calories more than a regular fit person. This is the ideal medical condition you are talking about. And this condition is manageable with just 25 minutes of daily cycling. Most obese people eat like pigs. They eat 2x or 3x more than the daily intake. And that's why they gain weight so quickly. A person eating 2000 calories more than required would need 4 hours of daily cycling at a moderate pace to burn those extra 2000 calories. Do you think that an obese person can ride a bicycle for 4 hours? No, because they eat like pigs, otherwise, Peter Sagan would have been a fat person. Those extra 2000 calories are stored as fat every single day. Who is to blame? oh YEAH....."I HAVE A MEDICAL CONDITION....." You said "Also, for some people due to medical conditions it's tough to change their weight. Doesn't matter how much they try......" Your comment is very ignorant. They just need to do 20 - 30 minutes of cycling. They just need to manage their daily intake of calories. If you are eating 3000 calories then you must burn 3000 calories by doing physical activity to achieve a net zero. This is physics 101. LOL
My height is 5 feet 3 inches and I am from India. Being a man who is 26 years old I can say that its hard to be short if you are man. I was mocked, humiliated and I was always put down by everyone be it my so called friends, parents or my siblings. It was hard for me to make friends or have normal conversation with anyone. Always while talking to my parents or elder sister they very subtly would bring my height into it and used to say disrespectful things. But now I have made peace with everything. I cannot change height. Mostly it depends on your genes and environment in which you are brought up. Even my mother is so short and father also not too tall but they want a tall son. And people in my school and college who disrespected me because of being short was not about height, it was about making me insecure because I had better grades than them. So to people who are short I have to say that its not your fault. First accept that you are short and there is nothing wrong in that. Work on your skills, be best in it. You can be an unattractive person but useful person too.
Saying there's nothing wrong with it is delusional. Of course, being short is a disadvantage. But other than that, your attitude of working around it and playing the cards you got, is good.
Me as a 161 cm boy in Indonesia can understand his feelings. My own biological family is always comparing me with random boy who's got more heights than me, even when we're in vacation
@tsuki so glad he found such a wonderful woman like you. Same with me, I've been in a few relationships lately, and none of 'em have a problem about my height, even though most of 'em were taller than me. It is a BS if we support equality but still discriminate against people based on their natural physique.
I've had to go through this as well. But I take it as what it is, a challenge. If all humans were equal it would be so boring. This is my challenge, if i decide to cry about it, its a shame to the thousands of years of solving challenges that led to me. You have to accept it and use it just as any other feature that can define you.
The fact this is even possible is a testament to human ingenuity. The fact that people are willing to go through it is a testament of how brutal society can be.
Height is 1000% the biggest male insecurity. I’d argue being taller as a man is equal to the stress of a women looking beautiful. Though, one cannot be controlled without this brutal method.
When he said Mujhe apna height se utna problem nahi hai jitna dusron ko hai.. Then that's it, he was happy with himself but he was not happy with people having problems with his height.. Acceptance is the last option

This surgery is a commendable masterpiece in medical field. Not just this case, but we have handicapped patients who have one limb shorter and need support for life. Surgeries like these have helped them lengthen both limbs to equal and helped them change from handicap to normal Kudos to healthcare professionals 👏🏻👏🏻
It took me yearssss before I could finally accept and love my facial and body features. It's far from the beauty standard society has installed to people, but I love every inch of it. My legs take me to places I need to, and I'm on a healthy scale. My hands allow me to work from home, helps me do my make up, can cook, can do basic household chores, and I'm grateful for it. I wish people the same, so we would never feel the need of validation from other people.
Beauty standards society has installed to people??? U think that 100 years ago apperance didnt matter? It was always like that, and I bet u didnt accept ur look, if u watch videos like that. There will be many times situations when u will think about it
Don't project whatever insecurities you have on me. I love watching documentaries as I love learning. I would even watch 600lbs life. Does that make me obese as well? No. cause what kind of stupid logic you have? Lol. And accepting yourself regardless if you have what's considered flaws for others is rewarding. You should heal. @@Soreto23
Such a educated man with a very bright future has been rejected because of his height? If I was him I would outsource and find a different continent that can accept him or would not care for his height. As short man myself. Never let your insecurity block you from achieving your goals and happiness.
Sadly being a genius in academics does not give people the aptitude to discern the type of people to listen to and the type of people who are meaningless and thus should be avoided and ignored at all cost. "Do you still feel that once you gain height, the problems that existed for you will disappear?" "I hope so." "It was always the height that most people had an issue with." "There was never anything else." It's like his mindset is fixed on being validated by the very people who brought him down and that's just sad. I've seen people who are literal dwarfs and short people the same height as him or even less who are happy because they hang out with a great crowd. I'm pretty sure I don't want to live in that place either because out of all your talents they still find a way to bring him down? Bunch of envious bitter people I am glad I'm not associated nor introduced to.
Sorry but I would never go through this extreme surgery to get taller. The doctor mentioned “if the patient is confident then he is intelligent enough to do the surgery” at 13:21
I'm a 5'1 man myself and have been subjected to bullying and harrasment a lot. It takes a toll on your mental health a lot. I don't wanna have this surgery but I must say the pain of bullying is too much...
Massive respect for this channel, really felt sad watching it had tears in my eyes as to what a society we have become. And I really liked the way she hosted the show and how empathetic she was while talking and she had literally tears in her eyes post operation😔
I'm struck by the opening statement he makes..."many people-not me-have always had a problem with my height"...as he awaits a controversial surgery that will make him taller. Dude, you are great just how you are. You don't need to change anything.
Being 19 and 5’4 in the US, I can’t say it doesn’t bother me sometimes but these past few years I barely notice it anymore. Everything else in life has been amazing. I have perfect health, I hit the gym 4 days week, attend a flight school to become an airline pilot, have an amazing girlfriend, a loving and supportive family, a great group of friends, etc. I’ve learned to not care as much as I did when I was younger. I actually enjoy joking around about it now(not too self deprecating, that’s cringe and uncomfortable) because my friends will make equally funny and deep jokes about themselves. I’m at a point in life where no one disrespects me because of my height and anyone that does I find kinda cringey and tryhard. Usually the people that try to make fun of my height I judge too. They’re obese, high school drop outs, bitchless, jobless, homeless, druggies, etc. Anyone that disrespects me because of my height I naturally see them as insecure themselves. It’s hard to be insulted by someone who treats others like trash in general. The secret is to judge others before they judge you, lol
Hey i am almost same height as yours and i kinda felt like this while i was in my teenage. Now growing up i have so many challenges, i workout and eat clean. I don't have to bother about what others think of me. I have my family and a loving partner as well. Life in not about how people treat you. Its about how you treat yourself. I wish you a happy and healthy life ahead. #gymbros
Finding reasonable people and friends with common sense is one of the steps. Remember, people on their teens: choose your friends carefully. If they throw insensitive comments, tell them to fuck off and build your own confidence. Don’t let anyone push your boundaries. Those are not friends and you’ll soon figure out that once you leave college (unless you have authentic friends), you’ll mostly likely never hear from anyone ever again and you’ll forget their names quickly. Go to college. Work. Party. Start your business. Whatever you wanna do. Live your life and have fun. Respect yourself first. The world is yours. Where I live tho I’ve never seen people being bullied for their height, but I do live in Brazil. Never had in my 26 years a bro come to me and say people are bullying them for their height or that girls won’t date them because of that. One of my friends in college was way shorter than me (I’m a woman, 1.63), and that dude got all the pussy one could get. Way more than me and prob more than the all the students of our course combined. He was pretty self-confident tho. An amazing guy also. Go for it guys, and if becomes too hard get the help you need, wether it’s therapy or surgery - it’s your call and your call only - just do it safely.
dude same i ended up doing mma and people who would make fun of my height wouldnt even dare to make fun of me because i fight people and get beat up every day, each day i get better and better. trust me dude do it and life will change im 21 and joined at 20 focus on muay thai and jiu jistu.
I‘m a woman with pectus excavatum, which basically means my ribs are kinda carved inward. Looks like a „hole“ in my chest. Was ridiculed a lot for my body and already had lots of bullying going on anyways. So I decided to try to fix it surgically. Got a metal bar put into my chest, fixated with screws on my ribs for three years. I could hear the metal bar every time I moved and feel it rubbing against my bones. Still feel it while writing this even though it‘s been taken out this year.
My cousin has the same thing! I remember changing in her room without moms there. I asked her what that was and my aunt said it was her “posito” and I was like oh I’ve never seen one of those before and then they told me I was the WEIRD ONE FOR NOT HAVING ONE! 😅 I took it to heart.
Have a metal bar in my back because of my scoliosis (and I'm little too 153cm) just by reading you text, it hurts me and I can sense the pain. 😭 Sadly it can't be removed.. Wish you the best recovery ❤️👍🏻
this man has his whole life trying to fix his hurt feelings from other peoples judgement on his height. He thought getting more knowledge, degrees and people would overlook his height but in the end at 40 he still felt judged and went for this extreme to gain height. I felt so bad for him
I don't understand why we always blame these men, and never point the fingers to the people that have bullied them their whole life for something they have no control over. We all know how families can be, how they wear us down for everything we "failed" to be, and how society can be cruel and all. He deserved a better treatment by other people, and if this is the only thing that for him at the moment will give he happiness I hope he will find it. I'm sorry it went like this for him but I blame the others, not him. How the heck can you "build confidence" when everything and everyone keep bully you for the same thing over and over.
being an 19 year old and 5 feet tall guy, I fully relate to all his past traumas that have led him to this point. No matter where I go, I am always getting taunted by the people through these pathetic jokes and beatings that put you down. No matter what people say, we humans tend to judge people on the basis of their physical appearance, choose to talk to them on the basis of their physical appearance, form relationships on the basis of their physical appearance. And it's alright to have such standards, what's not alright is the hypocrisy people go around saying that things like height, skin, beauty, doesn't matter, while going on having a preference to select potential partners on the basis of all those factors. That and the gradual bullying and rejection that accumulates to a level that it leads to such painful procedures. Even the mundane things in life don't leave mocking you - not able to grab the hand supports hanging above on the trains and busses to stand amidst the crowd, not able to reach things, not able to get pass the physical exams for exams and what not. This is the hypocrisy of the world
I mean, this world is not made for left handed people. They either learn to be somewhat ambidextrous and adapt. People with SpEd needs are not always accommodated and they learn to deal with it. I understand that it is tough, this is a cruel plane. Many do not even have the accese to go this extreme and I truly question the long term issues of doing this crap. I understand those with dwarfism doing this because they face many complications by not doing it. Your confidence in yourself also goes into how others treat you as well. There have been plenty of short warriors in their time. The world will reject you for one reason or another, you don't have to agree.
I cant tell you how bad getting bullied for height is. I was in elementary and the whole grade targeted my eight. It genuinely broke me, but im good rn
I was 163 cm when I was around 12. I found myself at back of the queue during assembly time. I found myself moving forward each year. By class 12 I was first in the queue. Girls in my class ignored me like I didn't exist. The taller kids were always surrounded girls around them. The only girls who spoke to me were from junior classes who didn't grasp how short I am. I was average looking but my I could see other men didn't take me seriously. I used the pull up bar and tied weight around my legs . I kept a lean frame to look taller. As I grew older ( 22 onwards) I could see most of women friends fade a lot more as I kept looking hair. They didn't like to be seen around a balding guy. Matrimony time : height and hair put you out of the equation. Then i realised you are chosen based on certian paramters in society. Character, ethics, personality and cobduct only comes later. You can choose to ignore it or you can choose to combat it with high heels, wigs or even surgery ( head or legs) . We can't change our genetics and remeber there are people who there with serious health issues. Get yourself in a group that appreciates the bigger things in life.
so be like many men have learned over the years and free yourself from material desire. Monks have been responsible for many scientific and cultural achievements (Mendelian genetics, washed rind cheese, champagne) because they distanced themselves from the sex urge and went beyond it. If you have ever seen two dogs humping then you know love and desire really aren't that special.
Brother one point i like to point out...I am 5'10 feet,avg looking,dusty...You said girls talked to tall guys...its not true,I am 24 yr now & do not have any single female friend...male friends are also few 2-3,even they dont wished me on my Birthday...it hurts more bcoz mine is on 20-april & there is on 21,22 April So only having good hgt does not solve problem...for fit into society u need hgt,muscles,fair look & most important RICH
As a 5'5 male I understand. I was bullied all of my life for not growing up to 6'0. Now that I'm 25 I realized that there are other things to worry and height is not one of them. Hope this guy can recover soon and cure himself from those emotional traumas.
Yea same here man 5.5 and my whole life and sometimes in small instances but I pass it over my head cause height is not a big deal. There are more important things to worry about
I’m sad for anyone who experiences such anxiety and insecurity about an aspect of their appearance that they feel the need to resort to extreme surgeries or procedures to try and “fix” their perceived flaw.
A boy at my school at the age of about 11 has dwarfism and just recently got this surgery to grow taller. He seems pretty healthy and his friends help him navigate around school. I just hope it works out well for him after learning what could be the consequences or side effects after watching this video.
I mean it's very different especially if it's for people with specific types of dwarfism, some people with it have very bowed legs which could lead to chronic pain later in life, so the surgery probably makes more sense for them vs this perfectly healthy man
Many people are commenting here that he shouldn't let other's opinion affect him but its India where people don't mind there business and most racist to their own. Indians rarely give importance to their self & individuality and whole society structure conspire to shame others. You cannot say how he felt until you put yourself in his shoes. Despite having good height it took me long time to accept my self and feel happy about it and to not let others decide.
Yes India is a society where a person is conditioned to stand up if ur society says u to stand up and sit down if u r ordered to sit down , if u go opposite , ur beaten up , shamed, disowned , singled out, and they have a preetty dialogue to defend this discrimination "Log Kya Kahenge Gar Khud Ke Choices Se Jeena Chahte Ho!" Implicating that u should never build opinions of ur own and just nod to what societal trends wants you to do in life IT'S A CULTURAL TEACHING OF DON'T STAND OUT DIFFERENT FROM ALREADY EXISTING STEREOTYPES AND TRADITIONS And even if u don't want to do something , ur elders will emotionally pressure u to do it anyways e.g. pressure to use whitening creams, prressure to force depilate pubic hair, They will consider u rude for not wanting to meet an arranged marriage suitor at the same time not consider their own behaviour of not asking u 'Whether u r prepared financially or mentally to marry' before parents creating ur matrimonial profile without asking their child's consent

I read a study about how the people of subcontinent survived 8 famines over the course of 2 centuries under the British rule, and their bodies started storing more fat than muscles because of being in a constant state of starvation. That is why Pakistanis, indians and bangladeshis have lesser muscle mass than others
this man has balls of steel.... it takes huge amount of courage to let someone break your bones and realising that one won't be able to walk for few months
This man is stupid... He is more focused on looks instead of functionality. He should think about the people without legs, people with disabilities. Now he is susceptible to deformity and weakness of bones. Utterly stupid
There's a thin line between bravery and stupidity. This dude belongs to latter. As a medical officer I know that there's a chance of more than 50% of getting bone infection from this procedure and deep vein thrombosis can be a major complication because of reduced mobility. They put you on anticoagulants for that. I'm below average short and would never ever do this to myself.
No one can really blame him for this. Unless we've worn his shoes and walked the path that he has walked, we do not have the right to judge the choices he made for himself. Being bullied is not something people can easily get over with, especially if it happened/ is happening almost all your life.
@@kittenmimi5326 hahaha that's a good one 😂, But kidding aside, I would respectfully say no still. I know there's a saying hurt people tend to hurt people. But in the exp context, you will really never have the same experience as anyone, unless you have live exactly through their shoes.
I'm 4'9 and I can relate. I once heard a cousin who is much taller talked about my family (my parents are short so I and my siblings are all much shorter than them) that we are "dwarf", in school teachers teased us too... I once considered doing this surgery, but not any more. I realize that I shouldn't let the way other ppl talk about me change the way I feel about myself and what I can achieve in my life. And besides that, for a woman, shorter = younger, cuter, more choices (men usually like women who are shorter than them). So I learn to live happily with myself. I'm also a business woman and doing very well. But I understand it is much harder for men, especially in Asian, where body-shaming is normal and anyone can talk about that, freely and loudly. That's why ppl should never body shaming others for things that they can't control, it can litterally destroys their lives.

For job, she can try to work for herself, start up... or do something that height is not important, for example: voice actress, hand model, youtuber, hand-made, painting, writing... there are plenty of things she can try based on her interests and skills. Just don't give up! P/s: I'm a business woman myself and I'm doing very well!

2:38 he can speak 9 freaking languages and has a good job!? The taunting is a good indicator those people are jealous of him. Once he goes under the the knife, they're probably laughing. The guy is smart, but nobody can escape peer pressure.
Be very careful before you decide this, I have broken tib-fib, It has been almost 2 years but never healed. I am healthy middle aged man, non smoker and quite active before with healthy BMI(still active without the walking part). The surgery had a complication, somehow the tib-fib shatters when they drilled it, now my leg is a mess and I haven't been able to heal properly. I have no illness like diabetes, or anything, it just wont heal. Consumed every supplements the docs recommended, vitamin A, E, D3, K2, Magnesium , Collagen, Potassium and of course Calcium. Somehow, some people have a hard time healing broken bones, even harder for bone extensions.
Good grief at the amount of knowledge this man has achieved…..the 9 languages alone is astounding!! It makes me sad that he has had to deal with this all his life when there’s way more to him then how tall he is. I hope the surgery works for him, gives him great confidence and he finds some emotional healing too. ❤
He also climbed the Himalayan twice on every schoolday... Maybe he wasn't only bullied bc of his height... Anyway, every surgeon should loose his right to work if they preform this surgery for cosmetic reasons, it is against the hippocratic oath to harm your patients...
A study of people who underwent this procedure for cosmetic lengthening evaluated patients between 1985 and 2010 and showed that the mean height gain was 7.2cm. At a 155cm pre-op height, he's still going to be short. That's also a lot of physical pain and rehabilitation to put oneself through for not much gain. At some point he's going to have to come to terms with the fact that even this isn't going to be a "fix" for his insecurities and he'll have to work through the rest in therapy. If there are complications and he ends up wheelchair-bound, the average height of someone in a wheelchair is between 122-135cm, which would put him at least 20cm worse off than he started.
@@GhostSal I saw a docu I think it was medical anomalies or something in discovery chnnel their was a brazilian woman who undergone another bone lengthening procedure following the 1st elizarov procedure to add another 3 inches to her height.

Same here. I had this surgery to fix a broken leg and ankle that failed to heal properly and was misaligned/shorter than it should be. Was an absolutely excruciating experience to pull your leg apart day after day, feeling all your tendons and tissues stretch as you turn the dials on the frame. I can't believe people would do it purely for aesthetic/vanity reasons, I wouldn't wish the experience on my worst enemy.
@@DCTriv exactly, you literally cut your leg in pieces and wait for your body to heal-even then your limbs won't ever be as strong and flexible as they were prior the surgery. The bones, tissues, muscles will be weaker and changed, it's a surgery you can consider when everything else fails. The fact that medicine allows doctors to perform it on healthy people who don't even need it is disgusting, this should be illegal.

@@awpmaster - They key to beating anxiety is not allowing others to define you. A wise man once told me, "as defined by whom?"
If he's making decisions to alter his body to fit the expectation of strangers then he's already lost the battle. He has allowed himself to be defined. You're 100% right. This world is filled with insecure people trying to define you with the sole purpose of making themselves feel superior. But every once in a while you meet a pure soul who cherishes you for who you are. These people are selfless and compassionate and most importantly, honest. These are the people you should allow to define you. If the man in the video waited just a little longer he would have realised this too.
100% agree. I'm also in the 99.9%. $0.02 (a very numerical comment).
he's almost certainly lying about the languages. it's not possible to have functional adult proficiency in that many languages without making it the sole focus of your life.
The reason why he faced so many criticism for his height is simply because the world is such a jealous place and he is such an accomplished man that the jealous just can't find something to scrutinise him other than his height.
and this is the reason they will still be jealous and will find another way to ridicule. Respect and contentment has to be from within ONLY.

@@blacklyfe5543 He is smart asf and that's why they came after him
no, its because life is competitive, and everyone has their issues. attacking others is an easy way for people to feel better by feeling superior, and the easiest way to get that feeling is attacking others over insecurities and weakness. People who do this generally do so out of being hurt themselves in some way, but thats many people even if self induced, so we have many people who mock and bully other. some forms of bullying is completely healthy, biological and constructive, but thats defined by exclusively targeting negative qualities that are changable and typically ones that limit your contribution to groups.

height discrimination is one of the most overlooked in the world
indeed, people fight fat shaming despite being controllable, but not height shaming, that is not controllable
I am 31 years old and have 158 cm height (almost the same as his). I can genuinely understand his pain and the reasons behind this drastic decision. In school, fellow students constantly bullied and made fun of me because of my height. No one cared how intelligent I was. At my job, many of my colleagues made fun of me. No one cared how productive I was. Knowingly and unknowingly I was always humiliated because of my height.

It’s very unfortunate that this brilliant man went so far just to make others happy. During thanksgiving I went to a wedding where the groom is 5’ and the bride is 5’11, no joke. The groom has the ego of a 6’4 man and is very accomplished professional in Education. I’m sure people weren’t kind to him either especially when he was younger but his spirit radiates through the room. He has a large group of friends and his wife adores him. Learn to love yourself and others will gravitate towards you.
It’s a societal thing. I’ve seen it myself I’m not ultra short about 5’8 often times those who are taller are always preferred more than those who are shorter. It’s personally never stopped me from doing anything, but I think it’s something the world needs to let go of.
You are right. I really feel sad for this man. And anyone else who try to change their natural body. But this is specially too shocking and painful and scary to see. My name is Ehtisham. I live In Pakistan.
It's possible, but the man had to make up for the height loss, that's just the brutal reality. I'm sure he learned quickly that height matters because it triggers a woman's instincts, biologically speaking. It isn't just a societal thing. You see this in all cultures.

For guys it's height and girls it's color! We call ourselves modern India but our minds are still stuck in the old ages! When will our society understand it's not OK to body shame anyone! Making jokes or telling someone they are short or too tall or too thin or dark is also not OK! It's very disturbing mentally. This needs to be taught at school levels and also at home!
Not really. Most men may feel a little insecure about height but women are constantly bombarded by colorism in every day life. Colorism is also intertwined with classicism. On top of that India is violently misogynistic and women are constantly demeaned and objectified. The problems are not comparable at all.
Black is good
Weight too
Color is a problem for men too not just women.
The problem is more widespread and not just in India. People really need a different kind of education. The world we live in is dominated by consumerism and not compassion.
Why are these men so desperate?

The pain 9/10 is true. I was involved in a vehicular accident before which caused my tibia to have infections. My ilizarov is now 6 months with me. The first two months were so painful that everytime i adjust the screws (1mm a day) i can feel my skin being torn. My 3rd month was where i started walking without the aide of crutch or anything to hold on. Now in my 5-7th month i can now do basic exercises such as squats, knee strengthening etc. The challenging part of having this ilizarov is the inability to walk for a long time after the surgery. My doctors suspected me having knee contractions due to movement restraints before. Life with ilizarov is really not easy.
I hope that your recovery continues quickly with the least amount of suffering for you
@@VeggieRice amen
Wow are you the guy in the film? I have been thinking of having this done myself and would love to talk to you about it all. There's nothing more in this world I want more then to be taller. Please respond
@@james2479 I know you didn’t ask me but do gather as much information as you can before you do the procedure, talk to people and be conscious of the risks. Even if it’s in accidents or for cosmetics the Ilizarov can cause problems. I’ve used a Ilizarov apparatus for broken bones but I wouldn’t put my feet on the floor for a long time, which I think is why seeing the man on the documentary walking after his operation gave me chills, but I understand those are probably different things with different instructions post-operative. Read about what you can do to increase your chance of not having any kind of complications and do them like your life depends on it. I know some cases of infections can happen to even the most careful post operative patient, but if you do the procedure take every step of the post operative procedure like religion. Like cleaning the wounds to reduce chance of infection, and follow your doctors orders on what you should and should not do. The dude on the documentary from what I saw tried to tightening the screws more than he should, so you’ll have to come in terms that you’ll have to follow everything strictly, and for a long time. Get a good doctor with lots of experience as well. The best you can. I say, do it, bro, if that’s what you want. But be careful with recovery please. If not, maybe cognitive behavioral therapy could help you also to accept yourself and be happy with who you are - but this also takes months, lots and lots of therapy and find one therapist that you bond with, which is always beneficial. Whatever you do, be safe dude. Wish you the best. Just really do everything you can and more with tips and how you can prevent infections and subsequent pain, and even other complications, but know that even if you do everything right you still can get one, but you’re lowering your risks considerably. But never to 0. Find a doctor who will instruct you how to rest your leg correctly, how much complete resting/walking you should do exactly, what you should and should not, on details. Cleaning routine, everything. One doctor that passes you confidence and seem to care about your well-being as they should (but not all do). Be safe.

There was a study done, I think by one of the major universities, that found that 80% of women won't even engage in conversation with a man if he is under six feet.

He's got literal decades of torment on me that when I consider my own emotions on the matter, I can see how that was where he ended up. I could sit here with measly 10+ years of bullying, and cast judgment, and say something like "I get made fun of but I just deal with it", but that doesn't address the fact this is a global intergenerational problem that we as a species need to get over. People are different in a plethora of ways, let's not let something as superficial as height be where we start casting stones.

Hear hear from someone with above average height. It is crazy being so fussed with height. It means nothing. If every short person was made 6' tall or above tomorrow it would just change the bar for shortness. It is just a relative thing with no practical value in modern life. Apart from the risks this poor man took to stop the bullying (and no doubt rejection from women - often short themselves and well matched to his height) there have been even worse interventions. In Australia there was a belief that really short people should be given HGH to bring up their height and social status. Natural HGH was obtained from corpses and a lot got hit with a batch that gave them brain tumors.
Hey for the record I worked with a guy who was quite short. When he got hit with the usual quip at a work function: "David stand on a chair so we can see you." He replied "No! You stand on a chair if you want to see me!" Classic and something that short people should file away.

It will take you approximately 3 months to gain 5 kilograms with your otherwise "healthy eating". Note that a difference of 400 calories is on the upper end. Most people would have a small change in their metabolism rate. For a difference of 200 calories, it will take you 6 months to gain 5 kilograms of weight.
It will take you "years" to become extremely obese. Approximately 3 years to gain 25 kilograms.
Now my questions to you are.....
Why did you allow yourself to become obese? We are talking about years.
Why didn't you exercise and try to burn an extra 200 calories? Just 25 minutes of daily cycling at a moderate pace.
This is an example of a person with a thyroid issue, who eats healthy, who eats only 200 calories more than a regular fit person. This is the ideal medical condition you are talking about. And this condition is manageable with just 25 minutes of daily cycling.
Most obese people eat like pigs. They eat 2x or 3x more than the daily intake. And that's why they gain weight so quickly. A person eating 2000 calories more than required would need 4 hours of daily cycling at a moderate pace to burn those extra 2000 calories. Do you think that an obese person can ride a bicycle for 4 hours? No, because they eat like pigs, otherwise, Peter Sagan would have been a fat person.
Those extra 2000 calories are stored as fat every single day. Who is to blame? oh YEAH....."I HAVE A MEDICAL CONDITION....."
You said "Also, for some people due to medical conditions it's tough to change their weight. Doesn't matter how much they try......"
Your comment is very ignorant. They just need to do 20 - 30 minutes of cycling. They just need to manage their daily intake of calories.
If you are eating 3000 calories then you must burn 3000 calories by doing physical activity to achieve a net zero. This is physics 101. LOL
My height is 5 feet 3 inches and I am from India. Being a man who is 26 years old I can say that its hard to be short if you are man. I was mocked, humiliated and I was always put down by everyone be it my so called friends, parents or my siblings. It was hard for me to make friends or have normal conversation with anyone. Always while talking to my parents or elder sister they very subtly would bring my height into it and used to say disrespectful things. But now I have made peace with everything. I cannot change height. Mostly it depends on your genes and environment in which you are brought up. Even my mother is so short and father also not too tall but they want a tall son. And people in my school and college who disrespected me because of being short was not about height, it was about making me insecure because I had better grades than them.
So to people who are short I have to say that its not your fault. First accept that you are short and there is nothing wrong in that. Work on your skills, be best in it. You can be an unattractive person but useful person too.
No need to be so insecure bro don't worry we live for ourselves not others..

Saying there's nothing wrong with it is delusional. Of course, being short is a disadvantage. But other than that, your attitude of working around it and playing the cards you got, is good.

Me as a 161 cm boy in Indonesia can understand his feelings. My own biological family is always comparing me with random boy who's got more heights than me, even when we're in vacation
@tsuki so glad he found such a wonderful woman like you. Same with me, I've been in a few relationships lately, and none of 'em have a problem about my height, even though most of 'em were taller than me. It is a BS if we support equality but still discriminate against people based on their natural physique.
@tsuki is this a first sight love or gradual
I am asking bcz many girls reject guys due to height after first meeting
I've had to go through this as well. But I take it as what it is, a challenge. If all humans were equal it would be so boring. This is my challenge, if i decide to cry about it, its a shame to the thousands of years of solving challenges that led to me. You have to accept it and use it just as any other feature that can define you.

Bro I'm 5'5 and Im 16 my mother is 5 and my father is 5'6 and my parents always insult me on the basis of height I can feel u bro:(
The fact this is even possible is a testament to human ingenuity. The fact that people are willing to go through it is a testament of how brutal society can be.
Height is 1000% the biggest male insecurity. I’d argue being taller as a man is equal to the stress of a women looking beautiful. Though, one cannot be controlled without this brutal method.

It took me yearssss before I could finally accept and love my facial and body features. It's far from the beauty standard society has installed to people, but I love every inch of it. My legs take me to places I need to, and I'm on a healthy scale. My hands allow me to work from home, helps me do my make up, can cook, can do basic household chores, and I'm grateful for it. I wish people the same, so we would never feel the need of validation from other people.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Means a lot to me 😊
Beauty standards society has installed to people??? U think that 100 years ago apperance didnt matter? It was always like that, and I bet u didnt accept ur look, if u watch videos like that. There will be many times situations when u will think about it
Don't project whatever insecurities you have on me. I love watching documentaries as I love learning. I would even watch 600lbs life. Does that make me obese as well? No. cause what kind of stupid logic you have? Lol. And accepting yourself regardless if you have what's considered flaws for others is rewarding. You should heal. @@Soreto23

Such a educated man with a very bright future has been rejected because of his height? If I was him I would outsource and find a different continent that can accept him or would not care for his height. As short man myself. Never let your insecurity block you from achieving your goals and happiness.
Sadly being a genius in academics does not give people the aptitude to discern the type of people to listen to and the type of people who are meaningless and thus should be avoided and ignored at all cost.
"Do you still feel that once you gain height, the problems that existed for you will disappear?"
"I hope so."
"It was always the height that most people had an issue with."
"There was never anything else."
It's like his mindset is fixed on being validated by the very people who brought him down and that's just sad.
I've seen people who are literal dwarfs and short people the same height as him or even less who are happy because they hang out with a great crowd. I'm pretty sure I don't want to live in that place either because out of all your talents they still find a way to bring him down? Bunch of envious bitter people I am glad I'm not associated nor introduced to.

Sorry but I would never go through this extreme surgery to get taller. The doctor mentioned “if the patient is confident then he is intelligent enough to do the surgery” at 13:21

Dude, you are great just how you are. You don't need to change anything.
Being 19 and 5’4 in the US, I can’t say it doesn’t bother me sometimes but these past few years I barely notice it anymore. Everything else in life has been amazing. I have perfect health, I hit the gym 4 days week, attend a flight school to become an airline pilot, have an amazing girlfriend, a loving and supportive family, a great group of friends, etc. I’ve learned to not care as much as I did when I was younger. I actually enjoy joking around about it now(not too self deprecating, that’s cringe and uncomfortable) because my friends will make equally funny and deep jokes about themselves. I’m at a point in life where no one disrespects me because of my height and anyone that does I find kinda cringey and tryhard. Usually the people that try to make fun of my height I judge too. They’re obese, high school drop outs, bitchless, jobless, homeless, druggies, etc. Anyone that disrespects me because of my height I naturally see them as insecure themselves. It’s hard to be insulted by someone who treats others like trash in general.
The secret is to judge others before they judge you, lol
Because America has much more logical people than India
Hey i am almost same height as yours and i kinda felt like this while i was in my teenage. Now growing up i have so many challenges, i workout and eat clean.

Finding reasonable people and friends with common sense is one of the steps. Remember, people on their teens: choose your friends carefully. If they throw insensitive comments, tell them to fuck off and build your own confidence. Don’t let anyone push your boundaries. Those are not friends and you’ll soon figure out that once you leave college (unless you have authentic friends), you’ll mostly likely never hear from anyone ever again and you’ll forget their names quickly. Go to college. Work. Party. Start your business. Whatever you wanna do. Live your life and have fun. Respect yourself first. The world is yours. Where I live tho I’ve never seen people being bullied for their height, but I do live in Brazil. Never had in my 26 years a bro come to me and say people are bullying them for their height or that girls won’t date them because of that. One of my friends in college was way shorter than me (I’m a woman, 1.63), and that dude got all the pussy one could get. Way more than me and prob more than the all the students of our course combined. He was pretty self-confident tho. An amazing guy also. Go for it guys, and if becomes too hard get the help you need, wether it’s therapy or surgery - it’s your call and your call only - just do it safely.
dude same i ended up doing mma and people who would make fun of my height wouldnt even dare to make fun of me because i fight people and get beat up every day, each day i get better and better. trust me dude do it and life will change im 21 and joined at 20 focus on muay thai and jiu jistu.

Oh honey. This breaks my heart. He seems like a nice and smart man. I hope he finds the peace and self acceptance he’s looking for.
I‘m a woman with pectus excavatum, which basically means my ribs are kinda carved inward. Looks like a „hole“ in my chest. Was ridiculed a lot for my body and already had lots of bullying going on anyways. So I decided to try to fix it surgically. Got a metal bar put into my chest, fixated with screws on my ribs for three years. I could hear the metal bar every time I moved and feel it rubbing against my bones. Still feel it while writing this even though it‘s been taken out this year.
The trauma is real
My cousin has the same thing! I remember changing in her room without moms there. I asked her what that was and my aunt said it was her “posito” and I was like oh I’ve never seen one of those before and then they told me I was the WEIRD ONE FOR NOT HAVING ONE! 😅 I took it to heart.

Someone hold these social media companies accountable to promote harmful practices.
I kind of want to think that their intention is to deter people from having these kinds of procedures done to them.
Just by watching the video, I am in pain. We're living in such a pathetic society, where we downgrade other people and hurting them for no reason.
this man has his whole life trying to fix his hurt feelings from other peoples judgement on his height. He thought getting more knowledge, degrees and people would overlook his height but in the end at 40 he still felt judged and went for this extreme to gain height. I felt so bad for him
I don't understand why we always blame these men, and never point the fingers to the people that have bullied them their whole life for something they have no control over. We all know how families can be, how they wear us down for everything we "failed" to be, and how society can be cruel and all. He deserved a better treatment by other people, and if this is the only thing that for him at the moment will give he happiness I hope he will find it. I'm sorry it went like this for him but I blame the others, not him. How the heck can you "build confidence" when everything and everyone keep bully you for the same thing over and over.
Because almost everyone is responsible for it, especially women.
because society has no sympathy for men.

being an 19 year old and 5 feet tall guy, I fully relate to all his past traumas that have led him to this point. No matter where I go, I am always getting taunted by the people through these pathetic jokes and beatings that put you down. No matter what people say, we humans tend to judge people on the basis of their physical appearance, choose to talk to them on the basis of their physical appearance, form relationships on the basis of their physical appearance. And it's alright to have such standards, what's not alright is the hypocrisy people go around saying that things like height, skin, beauty, doesn't matter, while going on having a preference to select potential partners on the basis of all those factors. That and the gradual bullying and rejection that accumulates to a level that it leads to such painful procedures. Even the mundane things in life don't leave mocking you - not able to grab the hand supports hanging above on the trains and busses to stand amidst the crowd, not able to reach things, not able to get pass the physical exams for exams and what not. This is the hypocrisy of the world

@@turkey4957 India, am in university right now, and it has all been the same as it was in during the middle school for me.
I mean, this world is not made for left handed people. They either learn to be somewhat ambidextrous and adapt. People with SpEd needs are not always accommodated and they learn to deal with it. I understand that it is tough, this is a cruel plane. Many do not even have the accese to go this extreme and I truly question the long term issues of doing this crap. I understand those with dwarfism doing this because they face many complications by not doing it. Your confidence in yourself also goes into how others treat you as well. There have been plenty of short warriors in their time. The world will reject you for one reason or another, you don't have to agree.
Give me your insta i will tell you how to grow even after 20.
I feel for this guy. Hopefully this works out for him without too many bad side effects.
I cant tell you how bad getting bullied for height is. I was in elementary and the whole grade targeted my eight. It genuinely broke me, but im good rn
I was 163 cm when I was around 12. I found myself at back of the queue during assembly time. I found myself moving forward each year. By class 12 I was first in the queue. Girls in my class ignored me like I didn't exist. The taller kids were always surrounded girls around them. The only girls who spoke to me were from junior classes who didn't grasp how short I am.
I was average looking but my I could see other men didn't take me seriously. I used the pull up bar and tied weight around my legs . I kept a lean frame to look taller.
As I grew older ( 22 onwards) I could see most of women friends fade a lot more as I kept looking hair. They didn't like to be seen around a balding guy.
Matrimony time : height and hair put you out of the equation. Then i realised you are chosen based on certian paramters in society. Character, ethics, personality and cobduct only comes later.
You can choose to ignore it or you can choose to combat it with high heels, wigs or even surgery ( head or legs) .
We can't change our genetics and remeber there are people who there with serious health issues. Get yourself in a group that appreciates the bigger things in life.
so be like many men have learned over the years and free yourself from material desire. Monks have been responsible for many scientific and cultural achievements (Mendelian genetics, washed rind cheese, champagne) because they distanced themselves from the sex urge and went beyond it. If you have ever seen two dogs humping then you know love and desire really aren't that special.
It’s not they didn’t grasp your height lol it’s that they didn’t care about it you did have people who saw you for you be grateful for those girls

Yes India is a society where a person is conditioned to stand up if ur society says u to stand up and sit down if u r ordered to sit down , if u go opposite , ur beaten up , shamed, disowned , singled out, and they have a preetty dialogue to defend this discrimination "Log Kya Kahenge Gar Khud Ke Choices Se Jeena Chahte Ho!"
Implicating that u should never build opinions of ur own and just nod to what societal trends wants you to do in life
IT'S A CULTURAL TEACHING OF DON'T STAND OUT DIFFERENT FROM ALREADY EXISTING STEREOTYPES AND TRADITIONS
And even if u don't want to do something , ur elders will emotionally pressure u to do it anyways e.g. pressure to use whitening creams, prressure to force depilate pubic hair, They will consider u rude for not wanting to meet an arranged marriage suitor at the same time not consider their own behaviour of not asking u 'Whether u r prepared financially or mentally to marry' before parents creating ur matrimonial profile without asking their child's consent

I'm 4'9 and I can relate. I once heard a cousin who is much taller talked about my family (my parents are short so I and my siblings are all much shorter than them) that we are "dwarf", in school teachers teased us too... I once considered doing this surgery, but not any more. I realize that I shouldn't let the way other ppl talk about me change the way I feel about myself and what I can achieve in my life. And besides that, for a woman, shorter = younger, cuter, more choices (men usually like women who are shorter than them). So I learn to live happily with myself. I'm also a business woman and doing very well.
But I understand it is much harder for men, especially in Asian, where body-shaming is normal and anyone can talk about that, freely and loudly. That's why ppl should never body shaming others for things that they can't control, it can litterally destroys their lives.

I once heard a cousin who is much taller talked about my family (my parents are short so I and my siblings are all much shorter than them) that we are "dwarf", in school teachers teased us too... but tell her to not give up, especially if she is a woman, men don't really care for height, finds some one who can love her the way she is. For job, she can try to work for herself, start up... or do something that height is not important, for example: voice actress, hand model, youtuber, hand-made, painting, writing... there are plenty of things she can try based on her interests and skills. Just don't give up!
P/s: I'm a business woman myself and I'm doing very well!
Rofl short women are very good looking and many men will take those over taller ones. The problem is (dont think i am ignorant) mostly mens issue.
@@Bananywkoszyku Even extremely short women still get mocked my dude
How sad, what the point having a degree when people see's her out side appearance rather than her ability, what a shame for those who downgraded her. Tell her dont take to much what she heard from other show them what she can do
@@LittleBambi777 I got a question please
To anyone who is watching this. You are perfect and beautiful. Please dont allow others to decide on the short life you have here on this planet. This video was truly sad and I hope no one ever has to break something which was always fixed in the first place. Sigh.
That doctor is so well articulate and genuenly interested in his procedures & willing to take his time. Solid 10/10 someone you trust your life with.
His contradictory statements before and during surgery concerning potential complications comes across as trustworthy to you, simp?
2:38 he can speak 9 freaking languages and has a good job!?
The taunting is a good indicator those people are jealous of him.
Once he goes under the the knife, they're probably laughing.
The guy is smart, but nobody can escape peer pressure.
shut up cartman
He is just in a wrong country
@@hr5581 Ah yes, I bet western Twitter would carry him.
This makes me feel bad for this person. Please do not mock anyone about their colour, height, or any disabilities.
Its not even a disability.
@@TheVelvetVixen IF you were a short MAN you would know at his height it is a significant issue.
Be very careful before you decide this, I have broken tib-fib, It has been almost 2 years but never healed.
I am healthy middle aged man, non smoker and quite active before with healthy BMI(still active without the walking part).
The surgery had a complication, somehow the tib-fib shatters when they drilled it, now my leg is a mess and I haven't been able to heal properly.
I have no illness like diabetes, or anything, it just wont heal. Consumed every supplements the docs recommended, vitamin A, E, D3, K2, Magnesium , Collagen, Potassium and of course Calcium.
Somehow, some people have a hard time healing broken bones, even harder for bone extensions.
He didn't need surgery, just therapy and some positive natured friends. His achievements command respect. Tallness doesn't (by default). $0.02
Feeble mind makes whole body suffer.
Imagine being discriminated against and verbally abused your whole life and then be told that you have a feeble mind and you need therapy. 😶
@@gg.youlubeatube6249 where is the lie
he just needed to leave india
@@suwooshi it's even worst in the West
Good grief at the amount of knowledge this man has achieved…..the 9 languages alone is astounding!! It makes me sad that he has had to deal with this all his life when there’s way more to him then how tall he is. I hope the surgery works for him, gives him great confidence and he finds some emotional healing too. ❤
that 9 languages was bullshit lol
He also climbed the Himalayan twice on every schoolday... Maybe he wasn't only bullied bc of his height... Anyway, every surgeon should loose his right to work if they preform this surgery for cosmetic reasons, it is against the hippocratic oath to harm your patients...
@@annakessler9372 india, has a lot of different languages (23 official languages), he probably speaks 9 indian language
This is best example of being an educated illiterate 😂😂
A study of people who underwent this procedure for cosmetic lengthening evaluated patients between 1985 and 2010 and showed that the mean height gain was 7.2cm. At a 155cm pre-op height, he's still going to be short. That's also a lot of physical pain and rehabilitation to put oneself through for not much gain. At some point he's going to have to come to terms with the fact that even this isn't going to be a "fix" for his insecurities and he'll have to work through the rest in therapy. If there are complications and he ends up wheelchair-bound, the average height of someone in a wheelchair is between 122-135cm, which would put him at least 20cm worse off than he started.
But he could repeat the surgery again
@@checknaexamsmubhe143 I don’t think he can repeat it on the lower part of his legs but perhaps the upper part he can.
@@GhostSal I saw a docu I think it was medical anomalies or something in discovery chnnel their was a brazilian woman who undergone another bone lengthening procedure following the 1st elizarov procedure to add another 3 inches to her height. She has dwarfism and she started having this procedure on her teen years.
13:38 He's talking about a second surgery, specifically the thigh area.
Taller than he was before
I'm American, and I'm only 5'9. Despite being considered "average," I can understand his pain about feeling short!
This is why people should not mock others for the things they can't control.
but people still will... because people are assholes. I know that not everyone is like this, but the vast majority of humans are not worth saving.
That can't be done. What can be done is to change your mindset and stop caring about what society thinks and instead focus on what you can achieve.
@@perseusarkouda It can be. At least drastically reduced. Its called legal intervention. Create a law to make certain discrimination illegal and have strong penalty for it.
@@ABCstockholm007 🤦♂
So its like mocking someone for the color of their skin
