HOLY COW! That looks like it hurt! I've been thinking about getting a monitor, but it was actually always the nails that frightened me  I guess it was with good reason lol.

Yes, it was pretty painful 
I realized that some of his nails were digging in so I took him off but he already got a few gashes in before I could react
Oh well, comes with the hobby I guess

You could clip its nails? That's what I do when my lizards nails get sharp or long, guess I'm the only one.

Yeah just use caution.
One time my super old iguana tried to eat my face off when I had her on my shoulder. Probably one the scariest moments of my life. She got super aggressive in her old age but I didn't learn that until she used all of her might to launch a full scale attack on my face.
