How far will human skin stretch?
Stretch marks are the scarring of the skin that occurs when you grow faster than your skin.


Usually you don't outgrow your skin though.


And how far will it stretch?


if you are normal, it grows with you, and you can pull it say 1/2 an inch off your fingers, etc..


if you have ehlers-danlos, it can stretch farther.

Reply:I once heard of a man who was eleven hundred pounds, couldn't get out of his room. I think this is the man Jerry Springer helped by removing a wall in the house and taking him to the hospital.
