    For those who are puzzled by this and don't like research: We have 23 vertebral discs in the spinal column (neck to lower back) which are spongy pads about 1/4-inch each. As they age they undergo wear and tear and get dried out. By 60 you will not be as tall as you once were and the degree depends on genetics and your lifestyle. It's a good idea to be informed about your back because when you get a pain issue, it's hard or almost impossible to alleviate.

    • @petercoderch589
      @petercoderch589 20 дней назад

      @@DataWatch. This is not true.. Bones are hard cartilage hardened by minerals(hydroxyapatite) and *cannot* lose length. I can prove this to you by pointing out that paleontologists can estimate the size of dinosaurs based on the length of their tibia and femur bones. Think about it: even after *millions* of years, bones do not shrink in length.
      So why do people lose 1-3" of height with age? It's because the *soft* cartilage that cushions joints degenerate with age. About 4-5" of our height is made by the cartilage and collagen of our knees, hip joints and between our vertebrae. With age, we ru out of chondrocyte stem cell pools, and protein synthesis declines, so this cartilage wastes away.
      Also, even though it is impossible for a hard bone to lose length, bones do bend under the weight of gravity. If you look at a very, very old man, say, one that is like 95 years old, the upper part of his spine is so bent that he looks like a vulture.
      It is joint cartilage loss + scoliosis and senile lordosis that causes the hight loss that you see in old people. At man at 65 will be 1-2" shorter than in his prime, and when he is over 75-80 he can lose another inch of height.
      But believe it or not, if you do an autopsy of a 95 year-old man that used to be 6'4 as a young man and is now barely 6", his "long" bones(tibia, femur and spine) are still *exactly* the same length as they were 75 years before when he was 20 years old and in his prime. Your skeleton does not shrink with age, but your joints do. Also, even though bones don't shorten, they bend, which for all practical purposes is the same as losing length.
      Height is "for life" when it comes to actual bone length. Sadly, this is not true when it comes to cartilage and how "straight" the bones stay. So you can lose several inches of height in very old age even if your bones stay the same in terms of length.

The producers wanted someone taller than 5'5".

      I know all the theories regarding his lift wearing and know he has worn them, you can tell by the fluctuations in height difference between him and his tall girlfriends. However, after spending hours and hours looking at him while making this video I honestly think he can’t be under 5’7 peak. He stands as tall as Nicole Kidman in a handful of their photos, and some of them she’s wearing small heels that would put her over 6 feet. Now lifts will give you some help but if he’s 5’5 or even close he’d have to be wearing stilts in his shoes to be as tall as he is in some of those pictures.

    A lot of the height loss is due to the fact that some of them stopped wearing lifts and not so much a fact of ageing.

      I’m not totally convinced about that. I do think many of them liked those heeled boots, but then again most actors loved them back in the day

    I'm 78 & know that height reduction is a real thing! At age 19, the Motor Vehicle,( not me), registered my height
    at 5'11"! My posture is still excellent for my age & I now stand at 5'8 1/2 inch! Is it bone compression or what?
    I've had to reduce the length of my pants from 31" to 30" to 29" & they are starting to be too long! What gives?
