Oklahoma Aquarium offers chance to swim with sharks

The text of the article is:
"JENKS — Only certified staff members have ever been allowed inside the shark tank at the Oklahoma Aquarium. Until now.

The aquarium will hold a drawing July 19 to decide who gets to wear a 45-pound chainmail suit and go diving with the world’s largest collection of bull sharks. The dive itself will happen between July 20-24.

All contestants must be at least 18 years old and open-water certified. Three scuba-certified aquarium staff members will go along on the dive for safety’s sake. The winner will also have to sign a “liability release agreement.”

Deadline for entries is July 18 at okaquarium.org.

Bull sharks are known for aggressive behavior and are considered one of the most dangerous species of sharks. They can grow to 11½ feet and can weigh as much as 500 pounds. The aquarium currently has 10 bull sharks."
