"People" say anything-- and it is usually crap. Like foot size has something to do with height or penis length, or height at a certain age means you will be a certain height at other ages. All crap.
You get genetic material from your father and mother, who get them from their parents and so on. So your genetic instructions may follow one set instead of another, and this can vary among siblings. My uncle was 6'3 and my dad was 5'10; had sisters that were 5'9 and 5'2. So just shows how variances can happen. Might "take after" your paternal grandfather, or maternal grandmother's side. Could have blonde hair and your brother brown. All depends on how the genes work in your body. Sure, many times you will see brothers similar in size, but often as not, they may range quite differently and even look a lot different. Just nature. And NO ONE knows how anyone will turn out as an adult in size or anything else. Heck, I grew up with several kids who had blonde hair, but it turned brown when they were in high school. So even hair color can change.Health Question & Answer

Height does not depend on Genetics.It doesnt mean that if your mom and dad are tall then you should also be tall or if your mom and dad are short then you should also be short,it purely depends on diet and metabolism of the body which brings up the height.In some cases height is also affected by environment like air,food and water which matters a lot to our health.Scientifically,there is no rigid proof of a person's height.Health Question & Answer
this is because you did not have the genes from your parents but instead from your grandparents.
these genes are hidden in your parents that they did not retrieve, and passed on to you, which you are able to retrieve.
this often happens, even with eyes' colour, illnesses, hair colour, sexual orientation and other genetic related issues.
it has a scientific theory for this.Health Question & Answer

Height is genetic, but recessive genes are a component, therefore one can be taller or shorter than parents and/or siblings.Health Question & Answer
This is not an absolute truth. One is very likely to be around the same height range with your parents, but not exactly the same! My dad, my brother and I are different heights too! Health Question & Answer
