2008 TRD HiLux 4000SL Road Test Review
Funny thing about blood in water. Turns sharks into a frenzy. Get a sniff of blood and sharks start thrashing around and chomping on each other's arses. Remarkably, they lose track of the difference between 'food' and 'an arse'. You'd reckon taste would be a bit of a give-away.
Whatever, the whole business is not a pretty sight.
Now it's well-established that the human equivalent of 'the shark' is 'the journalist'… they share the same sensitivities and moral rectitude. Each would happily eat their young if they didn't run, or swim, away from home at a very early age.
