WATCH: Winners can spend one night submerged inside a shark tank in Paris – Mar 31, 2016

Swimming with sharks takes an adventurous spirit, but sleeping with sharks might take a little more courage.

Airbnb’s latest contest is offering winners the chance to spend one night submerged inside a shark tank at the Aquarium de Paris.

The underwater glass bedroom will be set 10-metres deep inside the tank, providing a 360 degree view of the 35 sharp-toothed residents.

Record-breaking freediver and shark enthusiast Fred Buyle will be hosting the experience, who will “dance alongside the sharks, the ideal introduction to your neighbours for the night.”

Winners will also get a tank-side private dinner for two, breakfast in the morning and a round trip to Paris.

House rules for the underwater bedroom include no selfies after dark and avoiding watching the film “Jaws” before your visit.

According to the listing, the glass pod wasn’t just built for the contest; the aquarium’s marine biologists will be using it as an observatory.
