Why is numbness experienced after eating puffer fish?
TTX (the poison in pufferfish) inhibits neurons that transmit sensory information to the brain. Since TTX prevents the generation of action potentials in sensory nerves, the ability of the neurons to transmit sensory information will be inhibited. This loss of sensory information would be experienced as a "numbness" in areas exposed to the toxin.

It depends on what kinds of sharks you are talking about. Great White sharks (one of the most feared kinds) live and attack mostly along the Hawaiian coast (otherwise known as Great white head quarters and breeding grounds).
Most sharks attack surfers and divers near lots of water, like in oceans and seas. Like near Hawaii, Florida, California, and Australia.
There have been several attacks by sharks in Florida waters. Australia and South Africa have experienced some fatalities recently see:

Can you get killed by shark cage diving?
Extremely unlikely. The worst that could possibly happen is that the cage is torn away from the boat however most of the cages are designed to float and therefore no chance of drowning. Also when you actually go shark diving you will realise that they are pretty much only interested in the fish and very rarely try to attack the cage.
