this may sound like a dumb question...but im gonna go ahead and ask anyways. Is there any way to somehow make a short torso longer? maybe do a stretch somehow where your torso or upper body can actually stretch out a bit longer. I was thinking maybe hang from a chin up bar for alittle while everyday? I really want to achieve a longer torso. Also, does anyone know what age a persons upper body will stop growing, or rather stop growing vertically ...im 18. Any help is appreciated...thanks a lot.

Pilates.
Dancers use this system to look taller and limber. Some people actually add an inch or so because it teaches you to keep your spine straighter. Pilates teach you different habits. Human spine is shaped like a gentle S curve, right? It can be a squished S or a stretched S. Stretched S is obviously longer.
Everyone stops growing at a slightly different age. It depends on your gender, among other things. Girls stop earlier than guys. I stopped growing at 13 or 14, my brother kept growing till he was 20 or so.

I'm afirad you can't lengthen your body, but you can make it appear that it's longer. At 18 you're done growing. Look for tunic length tops or shirts that hit right at or just below your hips.
