Re: To smell blood in waterPosted by ESC on March 08, 2007 In Reply to: To smell bood in water posted by vasanti patnaik on March 08, 2007 : meaning of the idiom "to smell bood in water " Sharks attack will they smell blood in the water. In other words, if a swimmer is wounded and bleeding the sharks can smell it. So, in the the work world or otherwise if a person is in a weakened condition people will take advantage of the situation.(Same way with chickens. If one chicken has a spot of blood, the others will peck him to death. Cruel world, isn't it.) - New and updated content in the Meanings and Origins section is notified on Twitter: - You can also find us on
