Get Positions of Bones During Animation Clip

I would like to measure the distance between two bones on separate characters. I am attempting to query the transform.position of the bone(s) and determine distance using Vector3 methods. However, it seems that the positions of the bones are giving strange/erroneous numbers during runtime and postions are not changing in the Editor.

How can I get the correct world position of a bone in the heirarchy of a bone during an animation clip?

 

Transform.position should do it. There's likely something else wrong with your code.

 

It turns out I was querying position in a coroutine, so it was (occasionally) giving apurious results. I moved my code LateUpdate() and it's workin as expected.
