I've heard that when you get over 65 years of age, two things happen. Your ears get a lot bigger and you physically shrink.
I saw a guy I'd not seen for about 10 years and he was about 5 feet 11 last time I saw him, and now he's about 5 feet 5. He's 78 years old, by the way. |

I'm nowhere near 65 but I swear I'm shrinking already....I used to be 5ft 6 but I was measured recently at the docs and they put me down as 5ft 5.5

It happens with age ,also it's to do with your posture aswell.

Do people actually shrink or do they just stoop

Every morning when I go into the smallest boy LTs room and see the clothes he took off the night before it looks like he walked into his room and shrunk down to 6 inches tall and went to bed as his clothes and concertinaed together on the floor

So if I get to my 70's I'll be the height of Carlos Tevez.

Your nose gets bigger too as well as your ears.
Can't wait to shrink a bit - I'm far too tall as it is. |

It could be compression in the spine too. I think I've lost an inch too over the last few years.
