I came to this by coincidence. But I read in an article that the reason for Asians getting taller on average, as studied by a group of scientists, is that because of Genetic Growth Potential. They state that the human skeletal orientation could not withstand too much height on average. This is why taller and bigger people are slower in average. For Ex: The speed difference between smaller players and big players in Baseball. Smaller players are faster and can easily move with more ease. This is regardless of race. In the case of Asians. Asian, European, and American diets are different. In Scandinavia, people are tall, but their height has remained stagnant for the last generations. Also, In Africa: The Dinka tribe which feast on Milk and Meat. They also have an eating contest to see who eats the most meat and drink the most milk. They have been doing this for thousands of years. 7 foot tribesman are common, but how come they haven’t reached the 8′ mark? The reason is that their body is saying no; Genetic Growth Potential. One noteworthy Dinka man is Manute Bol, a former NBA player. But he is hardly the intimidating factor like other players. Taller people are more subjected to Back pain, leg cramps, and neck problems than average people. 7 feet is uncommon regardless of race. It also depends on what region you live. Northern Asians are taller by 3-4 inches than of their southern rice-eating counterparts. North Asians usually eat wheat and meat, which easily explains why many of those Asian 7 footers in the NBA and the CBA are from the Northern part of Asia. It may be hard to believe, but there is a place in China/Mongolia where 7 foot teenagers are common. No, they are not all Basketball players. This is of course where the NBA is scouting potential new talent. You will never find 7 foot 15 year olds in Europe and U.S., but this is often attributed by population alone. Their diet are different, regardless of being poor. Northern Europeans are taller than Southern Europeans. It is a fact that Asians are the fastest growing people over the last generation. One thing is certain though. Human beings, on average will never reach unsurmountable heights.
