One of Katy Perry's Dancing Sharks From Her Super Bowl Halftime Performance Did an AMA

The Northeastern and Northwestern sections of the United States wake up in different moods this morning, but for the rest of us without a stake in the fight, we have been left with some interesting images from the Super Bowl. Many will remember Darrell Bevell's terrible call on the goal line to call quick slants when Marshawn Lynch could have punched that in, but Katy Perry's halftime show had some interesting visual pieces that will make forgetting Bevell a little easier. One of the most iconic members of her halftime show were the two sharks that flanked the "Roar" singer as she sang "California Gurls" with a playful, tropical backdrop of palm trees, beach balls and, infamously, two dancing sharks. One of the sharks just did a brief Reddit AMA -- which is below -- and answered a few of the burning questions fans have for the veteran of the Katy Perry crew.

According to the right shark, Scott Myrick, this is his fifth year with Perry as a dancer and he is currently on tour with her for the Prism tour.

1. Is this the craziest costume you've ever danced in?
It is up there.. I danced as a gingerbread man in her first tour the California dreams tour. And also her big purple cat, kitty purry. This is just another day in KP land.

2. How was visibility in the shark costume?
The visibility was... Terrible. I ran into a palm tree but the camera missed it ;)

3. Seahawks or Patriots?
Patriots... Tom Brady. Duh

4. How does one become a dancing shark in a super bowl halftime show?
Well this is my 5th year working for Katy and I was actually a horse chest piece in dark horse and had to change into the shark costume in 1:30 seconds. It was nuts! But I guess it's just being at the right place at the right time hahah

5. Would you rather fight one Katy Perry-sized duck or 100 duck-sized Katy Perrys?
Katy Perry sized duck. Hundo percent.
