It’s hard enough carving Halloween pumpkins on dry land, let alone submerged in a 160,000-gallon ocean tank surrounded by sharks, rays, sea turtles, fish and other marine life.

Watch as animals get in on the action as divers compete in underwater pumpkin carve-offs.

(11:30 a.m. on scheduled days.)
