Honestly if it works I might save up for the operation. It's honestly the cost and success rate that scares me. (5'6)

If a brother can afford a 100K surgery, just stand on your money instead 😭

He said "I was always myself, and outgoing... but I always identified as a tall person so I got surgery to become who I was inside." .... my man is a Trans tall person.

"I didn't think it was normal to feel this kind of pain!" Because IT'S NOT! You're BREAKING your BONES!!

"I don't care what people think" is just a thing people say online because they think they have to, no matter how much of a lie it is.

Even men are getting unneeded surgeries now, we are living in a cyberpunk timeline without the cool aspects

Ahhh the male BBL. I call it the LLL, Lithuanian Leg Lift.

I’m 5’2 and I was offered this surgery for free when I was 16 (I live in Canada) because I fucked my growth plates up when I broke my ankle at football. They told me there was a chance I wouldn’t be able to workout or play sports again and your risk of arthritis increases drastically. Sometimes I think that I should’ve done it because women tend to write me off immediately. However, I started dieting and exercising regularly and that all changed. You don’t need surgery to be confident, you just need to be dedicated to something and good at it (that will come later). Fuck what people think, if I can walk around at 5’2 and not care you can most definitely be 5’6. Go to the gym, eat clean, be healthy and take care of your body, you only get one.

Making his surgically attained height his whole personality, the “My first date as a 6ft”, “I make my dad insecure now” & “you impressing me, I’m 6ft!!” etc, gives major BBL vibes😂 I agree, I wouldn’t get surgery by choice wtf unless it is to install wings or some sht like u said😆

"I broke my foot accidentally and now when it's humid outside I feel it" that killed me 😂

Preach isn't lying. I broke my back in seven places, arm, leg, and foot as a passenger in a major car accident. When its humid, when it's going to rain, snow, the pain can be immeasurable.

They dont know the long term side effects yet, they wont advertise them until there is a lawsuit.

183cm is 6'0 188cm is 6'2

“You’re speaking from the height of your privilege” is CRAZY work😂

As someone who has worked in orthopedics and with people who have recovered, I would never imagine someone voluntarily wanting to suffer this shit. If your partner is messing with your insecurities to this extent, find someone else worthy of your time

He said don’t worry about what people think about you just be yourself wow! The hypocrisy is astounding🤦🏾

"I'm one of the originals" is gonna be a crazy statement once the Cyberpunk revolution starts. Gonna have 5'5 dudes calling themselves the "Original Humans".

No thanks.. I'm happy being me.

"You're a whole ass barometer" 🤣🤣

People are short because other people are tall . And as they say comparison is the thief of joy

As a 5'2" guy at 18, and honestly this sounds like a terrible idea and I'd never do it. Not only that but the price is insane as well. Love yourself for who you are and that's all that matters!

Imagine letting total strangers take control of your whole self-esteem and wallet like this. Now you got T-Rex arms. Self love is a learned ability, people.

"he been a hobit his whole life. Now he's going to mordor, and it don't involve no ring" was actually super fire.

As a 5'8 dude that has been genuinely dreaming about the surgery, thanks for this video! My biggest problem with it is the fact that I would somewhere within myself feel like I caved in to some really effed up expectations and attitudes in our society. And how could I tell my kids someday to be okay with themselves as they are when I cut my own legs to meet a height expectation. And other big problem is that with all these surgeries that are becoming more normalised as you said, that is where the standard and expectation is shifting. There will always be an average height, we will only be raising it artificially and collectively f***ing ourselves over by doing so. We are not changing our genetics, only our appearances. So our kids will have to deal with the stupid society and expectations we built, to be more "superhuman" than our genetics. The way a new generation always rebels agains the values of the previous one, I am willing to make a prediction right now. Once we in the coming decades reach a point where all this is waaayy too much, normalised and expected, and we can change waaayy more things about ourselves, then we will eventually have a generational pushback to all this finally. That will be the rebellion of a new generation who don't want to carry on with this nonsense. Be natural will mean something again. Maybe we will have it sooner and in a milder way if we come to our senses about all this stuff before things go way out of hand.

Dude there is a reason why Suzanne Collins made The Capital of Hunger Games look like it is. She noticed how society is moving towards these eccentric modifications of the body, with the growth of tech and the book mirrors it PERFECTLY.

A woman recently told me that men can never understand the impact of being judged so harshly by the opposite gender on physical appearance.

He thinks people are smiling because he is taller. They are probably smiling because they sympathizing with him walking like that.

KZfaq really removed the video about streamers lol. I agree with everything that was said… they gonna fuck around and find out.

Aba "why is he insecure" Also Aba "Hobbit"

“Guys you shouldn’t make fun of ppl insecurities “ the next few mins jokes on his insecurities 😂 bathroom walk had me in tears

Spending 100k for a high tech, modern take on medieval torture is beyond baffling. And he was already 6'0? It is a sickneeessssss

this reminds me of a story from south korea I believe or japan. a woman had lots of plastic surgery to look beautiful and she married a man. they had a child and the child came out looking the way the wife used to. not a very cute baby and so the husband learned of the plastic surgery and sued his wife for tricking him and he actually won the case. pretty crazy but I think people should just try to accept themselves the way they are and find the person who accepts them as them as well. I understand it can help with confidence but confidence is also something you can gain from self reflection. you just have to want to gain it. there truly are no shortcuts

Your bones is literally the strongest and vital part of yourself. The sad part is when they are broken, they will never fully repair for the rest of an individual's life. Strong bones really goes a long way when it comes to physical health and strength. A dude can have no bulk on them and still be strong with solid bones on them. A solid foundation is important to house the parts required to live well and long.

"he's been a hobbit his whole life, now he's going to mordor. He's going on a TRIP and it don't involve no RING my girl huahuah." straight bars 🔥lmao

Therapy is slightly cheaper.

2 millions suscribes guys. Can't wait too see you as a kids in a video. I'm sure it will be a great one. Thanks for everything Aba. Thanks for everything Preach.

I'm 5'4" and I'd NEVER go through with that shit. I'd like to keep my money and be able to walk when I'm 45 and older thanks very much. Just got to the part where he admits he had the height surgery and he is INSANE for admitting that.

Bro the “people live their lives based on their insecurities” is crazy accurate. My whole understanding of people is based around that fact. Helps you understand things you never would have otherwise.

Aba's comment about being careful who you choose to date and how they talk about your body is so important. After a huge weightloss, I had to deal with not having the body that I thought I was going to have. Saggier boobs than I would like and an overall soft body. My boyfriend has nothing but praise and makes me feel beautiful. Surgery has left my mind and I'm so grateful for that.

Preaches reaction to the amount of pain one has to go through, is so real.🙌🏼 I never broke a bone but I felt THAT! I love that you two gentleman are out here speaking up for men about this topic. It’s tough. But know your worth! A good woman will love you regardless of your height. Be confident, be YOU❤

Crying in front of his therapist and still being 5'5 VS Crying about broken legs ... but 6'0

He got that knee grow surgery

As a 6'3" man, I simply cannot hate or disapprove of this man's decision because I could never be in his shoes but I know that the world is not kind to short men. It would be great if this opened doors on conservations about men's mental health, but the reality is the world doesn't give two sh!ts about the average man.

In my opinion, therapy and childhood wounds healing is cheaper than $100k

I'm 5'5 (166 cm) and would love to get this surgery but im also very conflicted. On one hand, i feel insecure about my height but on the other hand, getting this surgery would mean that i wouldn't be able to tell if someone is genuinely a good person because people treat you differently depending on how tall you are. I think anyone getting this surgery should find people that actually respect them, only then should they make a decision whether or not to get limb lengthening done.

We're living in a backwards society. "Be yourself and love yourself how you were born!" but also "We have all these surgeries available so you can change yourself and finally be happy!" Which is it? It can't be both.

"Let me get your socials" "Oh you want to put a ring on it that fast?" Brother needs to run!!! But unfortunately he can barely walk 😂

3:10 This is why you gotta love to love yourself. Ain't no way in hell I'm doing this.I love myself the way I am. That's what this video just taught me. And I'm not tall. But Atfer watching that i'm actually in love with my height

That’s what I’ve been saying, taller people are more insecure about their height because it’s part of their personality. They always talk about how tall they are, just like how prettier people are more insecure about their looks than average looking people

To the dude who used to be 6’2, why?!! Y’all need to stop listening to people especially women like the ones who are 5’3 claiming 5’9 and 6’2 ain’t tall enough. We have the world’s tallest people who had difficulties walking through doors, fitting in cars, trouble finding clothes in their sizes, etc. Being tall might have its pros but it has cons, too.

As a person in the medical field, I feel like just bc we can do something doesn’t mean we should. This breaks my heart that he did this AND there is a doctor that did this surgery.

Demetrius Johnson is 5'3" and is probably the best MMA fighter in the world, successful, and beautiful family. You don't need to spend that kind of money for confidence.

He’s definitely going to continue to get stuff done. Unfortunately it’ll just keep going and he’ll keep chasing that high of “confidence”. Confidence is feeling comfortable as you are.

My son was born with one femur shorter than the other, so this was done on one of his femurs. It took a few months but he recovered and 18 years later is doing great.

“I spent 100k cause I’m insecure” that’s all I heard

If that's case anyone getting must also think of the severe ramifications like for example if you were to get in an altercation sure your taller but I really don't think they can take really well landed calve kicks or shin kicks , imagine some fighters have experienced this let alone someone with a bone reconstructive surgery! Idk that's wild ,to me at least .

Surgery is never the way to over come insecurities, trust and believe it stays with you regardless of whatever you change on you. The truth is learning to love yourself before looking for validation outside is truly key. OOOH my moms words ring so hard at me right now and I am grateful, people trying hard to say surgery is also self love from the many examples i have seen it really not

That arthritis is gonna be crazy later in life

9:00 bro really said "Be who you are" ... the fuck out if here with that shit. I'm 5 '6 and it's only stopped me from dating 1 girl and if that's a deal breaker I don't want it. At all

As much as i would like to be taller i aint gonna lie even if i had the money im a punk when it comes to surgery. People dont really comprehend how things can go wrong in or with surgeries especially if an infection happens. And then to go through the pain and recovery nah I'll pass going through all that and not have a guarantee of success getting taller.

Did LasiK surgery in 2022 and ever since I no longer have ANY trust in any surgery. I now have ghosting and worse flares, driving at night has become very difficult at times and I wasn't given any heads up, was told the operation was proper and the only reason I accepted to do it was cuz my family members who did it said they had 0 issues afterward. I'm 5.7" 31 yo male not really happy about it (height) even worse when I'm barely 65kg despite lifting especially when I'm around literal highschool kids where I feel like I'M the kid but because of my experience with the vision surgery I can't fathom accepting something as drastic as this. Tried insoles wasn't practical, tried so hard to improve my body naturally through training and diet but sometimes your genetics are just too strong a barrier so I now have to just accept that I can't meet the adult manly traits and be in an early teen's body forever. The one saving grace of all this though is that I so far always look younger than anyone even those biologically younger than me whenever I meet with ppl xD I have inherited alopecia sadly so I'm trying hard to treat my receding hairline, I can't lose the one advantage I have :l Life is hard but I believe that serenity and satisfaction come from many other things notably healthy relationships & body.

My husband is 5’5” and I LOVE HIM. I have been with him 19 years. I have never once thought about him being too short 😂 we’ve been together since I was 14 so maybe that’s why but I’m 5’2” and we fit together perfectly. He is the best husband, father, everything there is out there. There is absolutely no need to do this to yourself. It is just a horrifying process. The recovery is AWFUL. I wish all these women would stop talking about only dating tall people/making fun of short people and people would stop caring so much about height. There are so many amazing shorter guys out there and they’re missing out. These guys should never feel the need to do this. Ugh it’s so freaking sad.

He said, "Do what makes you happy. Ppl gonna judge you no matter what"😂😂

I think personally the line for self-editing is you can go back? Like if I get nails done I can always take them off.

The creaking of the floor adds that much more to their walking impressions 🤣

I’m 5’6’’ and the insecurity I had about my height was the biggest cockblock. Once I overcame that, I did not struggle at all with women. Sure, there are girls that prefer taller men, but there are also girls don’t really don’t care so long as you come across as confident. Funny looking back thinking I would never have any success with girls because I was short when all I had to do was hit the gym, leave my comfort zone and actually talk to girls. In a relationship for three years now with someone I definitely would’ve thought I had no chance with when I was insecure.

Just found yalls channel....funny as hell. Shout out from west monroe la.

This makes more since seeing how much taller his dad is to him. Ive known guys like this who were short and had taller fathers and brothers because their mom is short and they take after them. It messes with them that their short one of the family.

This is totally the fault of social media and dating apps, absolutely horrible... women and men need to rid themselves of this crap.

Y'all need to remember that short is a relative adjective. For someone to be short there as to be someone who is tall. The guy who was 5'9' who becomes 6'2' will soon find himself still on the short side when the 6'2' guys suddenly becomes 6'6". It's a ridiculous arms (or leg) race. LOL

Thr amount of comedy in this video is much appreciated 😂

@14:20 my goodness ABa dropped a bar that man don’t miss either the analogies.

He broke his legs to have a simple change of perception. People smile at him bc he’s probably smiling. He feels better, so he looks better. Bruh finna have osteoporosis or something 🫠

"Who told you that? Fresh?" The strays stay coming😂

i broke my arm both radius and ulna. That was years ago i still have to be careful about lifting really heavy things with that arm because I can feel the weakness in it. I can't imagine both legs being broken in multiple places and having rods put in.

Me and my wife literally grew up in the area where family did nothing but make fun of you and now we're currently fixing the problems we have mentally because of it don't make fun of family or the ones you love

The thing about the "being their true self".. the fact is, yea, he had the means to get to the version of himself he wanted to be, but if he doesn't adress the fact that these insecurities are a part of him, he's just avoiding a problem that is gonna re-appear many times in many forms, not only insecurities in "height" but inferiority complexes in other things... what saddens me is that the majority of ppl who go through these things leaves those problems like solved.. but they aren't

Preach's "Whooooooof...ka-caw!" depicted a mighty regal wingspan, while Preach sounded like he paid for little bumblebee wings 😂

LOL. Cool it on the fish-play Aba.

I'm 5'4" and found out about this surgery about 14yrs ago. It's cheaper to get it done in Thailand as well, about half the price. Reason I didn't go through with it was the chance of re-injury. I'm pretty active, was in the Army, run everyday, skydive, snowboard, ski, skate, anything with a bit of controlled chaos. I'm 40 now and I still heal pretty quick. Im not fine with my height, but I also wouldn't want a reduced lifestyle, and enjoyment I get out of it. Also idk my family tends to date taller women, lol. Uncles are shorter than me, and there wives are all closer to 6ft. My long term GF is 5'7".

He still has the short guy projection thing going on. The mentality obviously didn't change. Assuming his dad is avoiding him because he's taller now instead of understanding his dad is very disappointed in him is wild to me.

Hey guys, could you make a video about the current situation in Haiti? I feel like it's not talked about enough by the media. Does Preach have family there? Are they safe? How does he feel about all of this right now? Thanks!

7:15 him and the baby gone walk the same hand me geeking bruhhh!!!

I'm 5,6 and I am so grateful because so many people out there are lesser then me not just in height but in so many ways I rather be stronger faster smarter than be taller for sure it's not insecurity he goes through he is just being ungrateful life couldn't gone a lot worse for him then being short

I'm a 5'3 asian man despite being short I never really see myself as less of a person. From my experience most women that focus alot on height of person usually are not really the type of women I'm attracted to and don't get me wrong I understand preference. The benefits of being a short man is alot of people tend to underestimate me and no I don't have a problem with my dating life.

Damn ABA don't let shit go dude 😂😂😂😂

11:10 Make sure that what you speculated here, should revolve around how he felt then, sociable, and a lot of times social people seek other people's appeasement, like for example, Kai Cenat. Then a lot of times a very socialble person burnsout. When this occurs, they'll feel like they're in their golden years chillin. He just so happen to not only have the surgery to make him taller reach to this conclusion, but also his age. But this is me talking with Peter Parker's girlfriend in my system...

Never underestimate the stupidity of people when it comes to insecurities & narcissism.

Another weird thing, his legs are longer but everything else is still proportionally the same to your prior height. Imagine being 6’2’’ and your torso and arms are the length of a 5’5’’ dude. Stop it😅

I alright saw a article saying genetic engineering could be the future way to change height but you could do much more with images even ones genetically gifted

I get it to a point. I'm 6ft so I'm just on that threshold where my height is never an issue but if there was some easy way to get a few inches taller I'd probably take it. But I find it hard to believe there's not going to be some extreme long term side effects of getting your legs broken and put together like that

When people told him to get high , this is not what they meant 🙏😭💀

My husband and I are pretty much the same height (he swears he's taller). I'm 5'4" and I don't even mind wearing heels with him. Granted my type was tall, slim and dark-skinned. He's not tall. Only slightly darker than me. And when I met him he was heavier than what he is now. I fell in love with HIM. His mind, his heart, his everything. Our first date was amazing (lasted for almost 12 hours) and in the Uber home, I told my driver "I think I met my husband." Still in love. He's still short. He is the BEST thing to me since God himself. The love is so good. Fellas... please love yourselves as you are. You are fine. Your one will definitely feel the same way about you.

Buddy on his Jack Hanma

I was always attracted to guys 5’5 - 5’9 never made fun of their height. My ex would talk about getting this surgery, then get offended when I would say I’d leave him, but the way I saw it, you are basically going to age yourself, I’ll have to support you in your recovery, then if we end up together as elders I’m going to have to take care of you when you’re broken bones start to rear their ugly beads. Or…. You’re going to get the surgery, I support you, then leave me, because if I find you attractive as you are, then what are you trying to attract. I think I’m over dating short guys not because I’m not into them, but the insecurities and short man syndrome, you can love or compliment them out of it.

i'm 5'4 tall, so naturally i looked into this surgery awhile ago. i was pretty close to making an appointment and getting the surgery done, but ultimately i decided against it. idc about the money, but i just cant afford to be a cripple for 6 to 9 months and i dont want to. the recovery, the pain meds, the health risks. also i was very concerned about bone strength/durability and general mobility in the longrun. idk for sure, but i kinda doubt you'll ever be as durable and mobile/flexible as before. oftentimes pro athletes/fighters get send straight into retirement from a broken leg injury, even tho they get the best medical treatment possible. leg injuries end careers all the time. definitely aint no joke. like this man in the video, he's now almost 6" taller than me, but probably still less of a threat than ever before. i'd imagine one strong low kick to the knee area and he's going down. the pain alone would probably end him mentally right away, plus potentially bone takes damage instantly. tho i'm not sure, if that's actually the case. hopefully not. the thought of loosing durability alone scares me quite a bit actually.

So now instead of being short, women gonna ask him why he looks like a T-Rex.

I broke my foot in 3 places due to falling on it from epilepsy & I had to walk in my cast because my financial situation..still hurts sometimes. I couldn’t imagine WILLINGLY doing that to myself for aesthetics..especially if the aesthetics wouldn’t actually match my body (your calf muscles are gonna be tinyyy in comparison to the rest of your body😭). These people are crazy. I’ll tell you that.

This is one of my favorite episodes.

Shout out to Preach for a great burn and just letting it hang; "You're having this discourse now... speaking from the height of your privilege..."
