He cowered in terror as the body of the beast darkened the water above him. The monster swooped around the crevice, scenting the blood trail from Luke's foot. Luke saw that several of his toes had been ripped off. He felt sick.

About This Quote

One of the most famous lines in the movie Jaws, it is made even more haunting with the image of a shark circling around a man’s foot. It is said that the toes of sea creatures are sensitive to smell because of their ability to sense vibrations. When blood is spilled, they can smell it and find an easy meal.
