Jacques Cousteau's grandson Fabien is building a shark-shaped submarine that will use pneumatics to power a working tail
so that he will be able to slip in undetected with real live sharks. It sounds a little scary:

"... the dive team on the Calypso 'probably getting bored' decided to make the robotic shark act erratic and 'injured'. Consequently, a large female turned on the shark and gave it a 'death blow' which is a bite to the gills. She came back for several more and completely destroyed the robotic shark."

That robot shark did not have a diver inside of it, but was instead helmed by forty pounds of bacon.
