Transcript for Inside the first-ever live 360 video of a shark dive

And as you can see, we have a delicious treat that couldn't wait through the commercial break before you jumped in. These are conch fritters and these were sent to us from our friends at the atlantis in the Bahamas. So thank you guys, very much, for giving us a little break fast and ginger is out there too for the first ever live 360 virtual reality shark dive. We give her a lot of credit. This is one adventurous many would. She is 45 feet under water on the "Ray of hope" shipwreck surrounded by sharks as you can see right there. Don't worry she's also with shark expert and a master scuba diver. How is it going down there below? Oh, my goodness, you guys are we are in it this swarm of sharks and at certain points in the swarm actually makes a current so I'm with Liz Parkinson keeping me anchored right here on the deck of "The ray of hope." I have to tell you, it's such an incredible experience. It's like I'm inside your aquarium or we are, the world's aquarium. Liz, when people say this is crazy, it's not, right? No, this is -- it's an amazing educational standpoint, these sharks really are advocates of the ocean and every person we bring down here, we really hope become ambassadors for the marine conservation and everything we're doing to try to protect them. We're doing it the safest way possible. We have Stuart over here. He's going to feed the sharks in the right way, only feeding them grouper and what is natural to their diet so you'll get to see them feed. You'll get to see their gills move and, of course, you'll get to see us right here on our virtual reality camera if you go to "Good morning America's" Facebook page. Some of these sharks have names, the joker shark I see coming right now and they actually look you in the eye. They are so almost friendly. Is that strange for me to say they're friendly? No, it's great. Yeah and Liz is going to actually do something for us here. This is fascinating. She's going to go ahead and try to do something that's very difficult but it's immobility and a natural thing that happens to sharks to other fish and different parts of the sea. What she's going to do here is try to tickle kind of the snout of a shark and it will put it in a temporary hypnosis. That temporary hypnosis could help researchers to explain a little bit more about what's going on within the shark it's a very difficult thing to do. We thought, why not try it live? You know, maybe we get it because I can then touch the shark without any incident. She obviously has chainmeal on her arms and Stuart has it on his hands. But the swarm is getting very excited. She's trying right now. Tonic immobility is very difficult, but, guys, it is so fascinating down here and it's actually at this point mating season so a lot of these sharks are pregnant and I asked before I came down, I hope that a lot of these sharks are not as cranky as I was when -- there she goes is there she's got a hold of one right there. Look at his eyes look like they're rolling back in his head. Walk us through all the safety measures you took, ginger. Erc O. The safety measures are immense. You have to have your flippers, you have to be covered head to toe and then on top of it you obviously have to have your dive certification and these guys have so many years with shark, they know how they work. They know what they're looking for and what they won't react to. They also have a very, you know, they've done research with teams from different universities and here she's got one, guys, oh, he got away. She got away. Most of these are also female sharks. Here in the Bahamas they have a high population of female sharks which are typically a little less aggressive and bigger than males. And, ginger, can Liz hear us as well? Liz, can hear you as well. Hey, Liz, I have a question. How important for everybody thought there is shark conservation to our ecosystem? I know there's been a loss in population of sharks. Shark conservation is super important to the ecology of the underwater marine life anywhere in the world, the Bahamas the government made the Bahamas one of the world's largest shark sanctuaries so sharks are protected throughout the country. There is no buying or selling of any shark products, the apex predator in the ocean and super important to keep this natural circle of life going so that it balancing out the ecosystem. They get so close to us, Michael, I can't even tell you. Yeah. Hey, keep those hands tucked in, ginger. Ginger. They're in. Half a million people are watching right now. Over 500,000 on our Facebook page. Can you describe to them, they feel like they're there with you just describe to them what it's like to be where you are right now. The only thing you aren't feeling is when the shark actually looks you right in the eye and then touches you. I have been right now grazed by right now there's a tail hitting me because I believe Liz has this shark in tonic immobility. Guys, we did it. It's happening right now so I'll touch the shark's tail if that's okay, Liz. If you did that to me I think I would do the same thing. It works on my dog. So beautiful. Oh, my goodness. Oh, look at that. This is what you can't feel in virtual reality. So what's happened to the shark there? What happened actually? Taking a nap. It happened right here and I'm telling you, I have his fin in my hand, guys. It's so soft and gorgeous and like so strong. You can feel the strength because every single part of a shark is working and you can feel the muscle and the cartilage and all of their body is cartilage except for their jaw and teeth so that they can whip around in the ocean so quickly. Wow, this is amazing. Oh. Ginger. Tell me when I shouldn't do this anymore, Liz. Ginger, how long will that shark stay in a catatonic state? It can stay in tonic immobility for 15 minutes. Oh, there he goes. There she goes. Up to 15 minutes so we got it. I'm not supposed to put my land out. All right. Way to listen up, ginger, linger, Liz, thank you both very much. What an experience.
