Devil Rex: Supports Higher T-rex Size Estimates

It seems Thomas the T-rex is not the only Tyrannosaurus specimen that supports the higher estimates for T-rex. You can read about that in my older post... [url=http://www.jurassicworld-movie.com/community/forums/topic/28142]Thomas The T-rex[/url] Now, on to Devil Rex(also known as Wankel Rex). Devil Rex measured about 38 ft(11.6 meters) long and weighed an estimated 6-7 tons when it died. So what's the big deal? It was only 18(a year older than Thomas). That is nearly the length and almost as heavy as I said Thomas would be when he was 18! I said, and I quote, "However, at 17, Thomas still has a full year of rapid growth yet to come. Since T-rex put on nearly 10 lbs a day during this growth, Thomas would have gained over 3,650 pounds. So, at age 18, he would be 10,650-11,650 lbs. Probably would have been about 36-38 ft in length." I also stated that Thomas would be roughly 40+ ft long and 13,650-14,650 lbs when he was an adult. Devil Rex was nearly that heavy and almost as long when he died at 18! I would not be surprised if Devil Rex would have made it to 43 ft or so and perhaps 15,000-16,000 lbs or so by the time he died at roughly 30 years old. Just a little more evidence for the theory that T-rex was bigger than originally thought.
