Questions answered by Bethany Hamilton
What inspired/motivated you to get back on the board? I think my motivation came from my passion for the sport, for the ocean, and from the hope that my lifestyle would not have to dramatically change.
Were you scared of getting back into the water? I was more scared that I wouldn’t be able to surf again causing my life to turn upside down.
Were you worried that you were not going to be able to surf again? Yes, I did have concerns, as did my family and friends. We had never heard of anyone surfing with one arm, so we didn’t know if it was possible.
Did it hurt when the shark bit you? It did not necessarily hurt when the shark bit me; I just felt pressure.

Her family
Bethany's eldest brother is named Noah Hamilton, her second eldest brother is named Timmy (Timothy) her mums name is cherilyn hamilton her dads name is tom hamilton
Bethany the star
We really don't need another reason to admire surfer Bethany Hamilton. Her never-give-up attitude is the stuff of Hollywood scripts. The movie Soul Surfer, about her amazing comeback to surfing after losing her arm to a shark attack, has not only defied critics and netted a tidy profit, it's also earned her a new generation of admirers.

Bethany Hamilton has become a source of inspiration to millions through her story of faith, determination, and hope. Born into a family of surfers on February 8, 1990, on the island of Kauai, Hawaii, Bethany began surfing at a young age. At the age of eight, Bethany entered her first surf competition, the Rell Sun Menehune event on Oahu, where she won both the short and long board divisions. This sparked a love for surf competition within her spirit.
