Anyone have some pics of people holding an adult ackie?

I just want to see how big they get in comparison to a person. I am very interested in Dumerils monitors, but I am finally starting to realize they are not the best monitor to begin with. So, I am checking out the ackies. I just love those pacific island monitors though... oh well. With experience comes knowledge.

Well here is a young adult, two years or so old. I think she is a bit small.

I don't keep dumerils, but I do keep jobiensis (which are probably on average considerably smaller than dums).

Here is a young adult male jobiensis for comparison, there is still a fair portion of tail hanging off my hand.
