It is VERY possible that 2 short parents can have a tall child. It goes based on genetics, yes, but also, if you had a tall person somewhere in your Family or his (which going back centuries, I'm sure one of your Family members was tall or medium), all of that being said, the DNA can mix & make a tall child.
That is how midgets can end up with normal sized children.
