Is there anyone ridiculously taller than their parents?

A 5 year late post, but I am currently a 14 year old boy who is 5'10. My father is 5'3 and my mother is 5'5. I don't understand it. I play many sports and eat well. I am an above averagely healthy human, so that might be the reason. I am looking for some kind of explanation.

I know this is old but I'm in the oppisote boat, at least with my dad. My dad is 6'0 and Mom is 5'8. I'm 19 so probably done growing. I like to claim I'm 5'8 but I was height checked not long ago. I'm 5'8 in boots only (probably more like 5'6). I always wear boots when I visit home from school. MAkes me the same hieght as mom (if she isn't wearing tennis shoes). Especily cause my siblings are catching up

I'm like 5'10.5" to 5'11"
My dad is 5'6"
My mom is 5'2"
When I have seen my parents the last time, I was definetely taller than them. Hardly likely that it changed.
