We know VW Beetles are pretty resilient vehicles, but can they protect you from sharks?

As part of the Discovery Channel's Shark Week Volkswagen has built a "Volkswagen Beetle Shark Observation Cage" that divers can use to interact with sharks underwater, SMH reports.

The cage is based on the dimensions of the VW Beetle and still has the iconic car's headlights, tail-lights and wheels, along with a VW badge and steering wheel.

Divers can actually drive the Beetle cage underwater and interact with the sharks, propelled by oxygen thrusters.

Is there nothing VW Beetles can't do?
