What exercises can lengthen spine?

Not really. However, many exercise techniques have been proven to make bones stronger, but not really larger. Lying down all day and not moving would allow the cartilage to expand (as it does overnight) but only very slightly and you would only gain around 1cm or so overall and the effects would be temporary as the cartilage would compact over the time you spend standing up (as it does during most days). By releasing and relaxing the muscles that are associated with the spine the same thing can happen, you can be taller. There is a physiological law called Wolff's Law that states: " that every change in form and function of a bone, or in its function alone, is followed by certain definite changes in its internal architecture and equally definite secondary alteration in its mathematical laws."

I'll make some rough assumptions here... suppose the average human walks for 30 minutes per day, 90 steps per minute (which is three steps every two seconds), from the age of 5 to 75. thats 90 steps per minute * 30 minutes per day * 365 days per year * 70 years of walking = 68,985,000 steps. Feel free to change any or all of my assumptions and come up with a better answer!

Will doing Push ups for two hours get me a big chest?

You would not be able to do push ups for two hours, and if you were you would lose form and thus eliminate any possible benefit from doing those push-ups. If you would like to grow a bigger chest your best bet would be do the following: Get into the standard push up position, lower yourself (2 seconds down) and push yourself off the floor as quickly as possible. Repeat as many times as you can until you lose form (until you cannot do the push up properly anymore). That's one set, do as many sets as you can until you cannot do another push up correctly. Don't rest more than 3 minutes between sets. I would also suggest performing polymeric push ups (this is where you lower yourself and then push yourself completely off the floor) as they strain your chest muscles more than the normal push ups.

Do eating sesame seeds massaging with fenugreek oil and making exercises increase your breast size?

From: touregypt dot com "A tea made from the seeds is a staple recipe for increasing mother's milk. It also has a reputation for stimulating breast growth: smaller-breasted Turkish harem women were said to bathe their breasts in fenugreek seed water, although whether the results were consistently satisfactory is unknown. Fenugreek, despite its bitter taste, has both an ancient and modern reputation as an aphrodisiac." Even after having posted the above, I have to add that the human body shape and size is controlled more by your genes than by anything you can ingest or dunk your tatas in. If there was a drug or supplement that could taget a specific body organ and alter its shape andd/or size.......
