Rumble streamer John “Tectone” recently shared another update about his unborn child after announcing that he and his wife, Sophia, are expecting a boy. During a recent livestream, Tectone claimed that doctors told him their son could reach at least 6’4” when fully grown. He linked the prediction to his and Sophia’s height and joked that their child could eventually become taller than him. The claim quickly drew questions from viewers, with some wondering whether doctors can predict adult height before birth with such certainty. Tectone, however, appeared confident in what he had been told.

Tectone says his son could grow to at least 6'4"
Tectone discussed the prediction around the 32:20 mark of his livestream. He said doctors had told him that his son’s minimum adult height could be 6’4”.
He said:
“Oh, we also got told by the doctors that our baby, at its shortest, should be 6’4” when they’re mature and fully grown. Because Sophia and I are so ****** huge, the genetics for our baby are insane. So our kid is gonna be, like, almost as big as me, minimum.”
Tectone then joked about the possibility of his son eventually being taller than him.
“Dude, my kid might be taller than me. So there’s gonna be **** aura, bro.”
A viewer questioned whether doctors could already determine how tall a baby would become as an adult.
Tectone responded:
“Yeah, that’s what’s crazy.”
His comments soon spread beyond the livestream, with some viewers questioning the accuracy of the claim. One X user wrote:
“That’s not how genetics works.”
Another commenter said:
“Yea didnt happen. Dr can't even tell that. Does this du ba s just say anything.”
The exact medical assessment Tectone referred to has not been made public, so there is no independent way to verify what doctors told him or how the alleged estimate was calculated. Adult height can be influenced by several factors, including genetics and overall development, making Tectone’s claim a point of debate among viewers.
The couple previously announced that they were expecting a boy, with Tectone sharing the news with his audience during a livestream.

He said:
“Every single person I know that’s ever had an issue with Iron Mouse has received wave after wave after wave of death threats, and Iron Mouse doesn’t have to say anything to get these people to do this. They’re so ****ing weird.”
Tectone then claimed that some people in Ironmouse’s fanbase had called him a convicted rapist. He said that while he is used to receiving threats, he objected to what he described as false accusations being directed at him.
