It's actualy not a myth, it's been researched multiple times and proven. Ask any Gp and they will tell you the same. Not to mention i've actualy seen this happen to somebody with my own eyes.

What makes you think it's a myth?

This guy has been strength training since he was 10 and was 12 in this report. So 2 years of intense strength training at an age were he is growing, he is still 5ft 7ins which towers above the average 12 year old. He is also the worlds strongest 12 year old and you can see him on GMTV here:



In that video you see his school friends of the same age come up to his chest... Then the official GMTV Doctor/GP guy says how it is perfectly fine at a young age.

Well you must be going blind. The only way you'll stunt your growth is through injuring your skeletal system which is caused by bad form, which if you have done your research and arent an idiot, shouldnt happen. What difference is weightlifting from football, rugby, hockey or anything else you do that involves moving. You take knocks in football and rugby?

Probably in awful form judging by his form on those curls. He was throwing them and letting momentum do the rest. Good form takes way more effort. Dynamic presses (bar those that specifically need them like professional exercises such as cleans and jerks) and movements do not show control of the weight, you are simply throwing it and letting gravity do the rest.
