A special effects team from Vfxlab got together to create and build a crazy awesome animatronic shark costume. I'm sure Steven Spielberg would have loved to have something like this while shooting Jaws.
The costume is built around a Seabob, which a person has to operate. We have a video below of the shark costume in action. They tested it in the swimming pool of a local Hilton Doubletree Hotel, which makes the whole thing even more amusing. I can only imagine what the guests at the hotel thought when they saw it in the pool!
