Bethany Hamilton's Soul Surfer

This quote is crucial.After the shark attack Bethany says she doesn't recall most of what happened.She said all she remembers is a grey shadow and a lot of pressure. She describes how grateful she was not to see the shark because she probably wouldn't have been able to recover the way she did and learn to surf

Soul Surfer is based off of the true story of how a young girl, Bethany Hamilton, lost her arm due to a shark attack.  Bethany was 13 years old at the time her attack occurred on the morning of Halloween 2003. Bethany was surfing with her best friend, Alana Blanchard, along with Alana's dad and brother in a place known as "The Tunnels" or Tunnels Beach which is located on the North Shore of Kauai. Bethany was laying on her surfboard with her left arm dangling in the water, when out of the blue the shark attacked her and took her arm almost to her armpit. The remainder of the movie shows how Bethany coped with her injury with the help of her community, as well as her re-learning how to surf and go through her daily life as normal as possible. This film's estimated budget was about $18,000,000.

“Life is a lot like surfing…When you get caught in the impact zone, you’ve got to just get back up. Because you never know what may be over the next wave” (“Soul Surfer”). Bethany Hamilton endured a very traumatic experience in her life, and this is why she is known as the “Soul Surfer.” The difficulties she faced and overcame were truly remarkable.

A girl named Bethany Hamilton defeats all odds when she loses her arm in a shark attack. Through her faith and family she never loses her determination to get back on her board and return to competitive surfing. She has touched the lives of so many people with her charitable efforts, message, and her overall strength. She has become an inspiration for everyone around the world. Bethany shares her life story in the movie Soul Surfer, directed by Sean McNamara with performances by AnnaSophia Robb, Helen Hunt, and Carrie Underwood. The movie follows the life of Bethany Hamilton, a thirteen-year-old competitive surfer in Kauai, Hawaii. Even though Soul Surfer is based on a true story, the movie itself is only semi-accurate, as demonstrated by character, plot, and special effects.

Alana started to freak out and called her father and brother over to help get Bethany to shore. They all got her to the coral that split the shallow part and the deep part of the ocean. Once they got there the brother went ahead to call the ambulance and Alana and her dad continued to bring back to shore. The ambulance took her to the hospital where they met the rest of the family, the room that they needed for her surgery was where her dad was getting ready to get knee surgery. She got surgery and was resting in bed and her family was in her hospital room waiting for her to awaken.
