“Sharks version of naked sushi?” joked another viewer.

But other users were more taken by the experience, with one dubbing it “my heaven”, and another person calling it “a dream”.

The sharks appear to be nurse sharks, which range between 7.5 and 8-feet-long and are generally considered to be calm towards humans.

While the woman appears to be a bit of a daredevil by testing the shark-infested waters, no fatal attacks have been recorded involving nurse sharks – though people are encouraged to keep their distance.
