After the Sanctuary of the Scion level, Natla says "Left Larson sucking wind then, eh?" and Lara replies "If that is the phrase."
Any one know what this is meant to mean?

Larson is probably sucking air (wind) into his lungs through multiple gun shot wounds in his chest! http://www.tombraiderforums.com/images/smilies/violent.gif

Well when I've heard this phrase used elsewhere it refers to when somebody has been beaten up or winded, they're left 'sucking wind'. It can't quite mean the same thing here but probably something along those lines.

Well a quick google search has revealed lots of people talking about sucking wind but nobody explaining it.

Yes badfatt,

I've heard it used when someone is way in the lead or has won a race, that they have left the competition "Sucking Wind".

Doesn`t it mean like "out of breath"?

I don`t speak english, but it would seem kinda logical. Getting all worked up and sucking wind, right? http://www.tombraiderforums.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
