  • She is a roll model to so many people.And she is mine.It just shows that when you are really into something,no matter what happens,you keep going.

  • i <3 this movie!

  • if she was ugly no one would care...

  • I would never be able to go in the water ever again knowing there are more sharks and that I would have almost got killed .....

  • I love you so much Bethany u sure do have a true heart, I am 11 and i live in Pennsylvania. I never knew how to surf but i have always wanted to learn.You are a very pretty girl and ever since i have seen your movie i have looked at things in a total different way. You are amazing! maybe some day it will be a miracle day and i could meet you and you can teach me how to surf! LOL You sure are a true soul surfer! LOVE YA! :)

  • The greatest warriors never ever harmed other souls, neither did they rejoice in seeing others harmed, no, they rejoiced that they could lead others to peace. That is also Bethany's story, for she surely is one of the greatest warriors ever.

  • what was the bible verus at the end of the documentery?

  • Bethany Hamilton <3

  • I love you bethany..!!! -3

  • Uh, I love Bethany, I cannot stress that enough

  • Bethany Hamilton is a big hero to people who love the ocean and lost a part of their body and helping them to get back in the water again

  • This part made me really sad. I thought she was going to die when she was in the hosipatal.

  • @GnosticHumanist

    Definition of Humanist: One who is concerned with the interests and welfare of humans.

    Isn't that ironic?

    Anything that this girl has done is far better than sitting on your ass trolling multiple videos to create negative comments for. That must be a pretty depressing existence.

  • so she just had her arm hanging off the bord and chomp

  • awsume!! lol

  • @awakenbeing I know like the whole world would...unless some1 had the wits to make it up...(;

  • i guess thats why they made the movie SOUL SURFER!!!WE LOVE U BITHANNY <3 :D

  • bad shark

  • @savannahanna989 good shark! without sharky, none of this would be possible. million would have missed out being inspired.

  • @awakenbeing point taken..... but without the shark bethany would have her arm

  • i look up to you beythany ireally do i want to grow up just like you please respond to me your my hero ps im only 12 soo i wish to grow up just like you :)

  • i love bethany..very strong woman i love you from philll...your story is make me cry cry...amazing girl smart and super kind i think..god is very good he give a chance to stay here...

  • that was awesome and inspiring

  • Poor Bethany :'(

  • Comment removed

  • Bethany inspires me,how can 6 people dislike this amazing story!!!!!!!!!

  • yap she is the best inspiration of us, despite of everything she experienc ,still she remain strong and face the big trial on her lifre ,thats why she deserve to have a standing ovation.of her.

  • i love u \

  • @Brentsey thats not even funny!

  • Shes a true inspiration to all people <3

  • woww : (

  • Bethany is an amazing inspiration to me.(:

  • you bethany are really brave my brother wants to go there my dad said maybe me and my mom said were just gonna play in the sand and if water even touches me i will start crying oh and if 1 of my family members gets bit im not going to save them oh and im10 by the way.

  • once we understand the signs we will know the right way, path & decisions. As I realised the signs send by ALLAH ALMIGHTY and I knew that a danger was coming to me and my family so I prepared myself and my proper faith and prayers and I faced the danger that was coming and rescued myself and family from a deadly massacre. the story is long and I cant mention it in this comment's stage. the signs will be of both faces: positive signs and negative signs to guide all your life..

  • continue my previous comment... if GOD wants you Bethany to become famous, u will be even without the shark attack. GOD doesn't harm his creatures but warns & protects them from any harm. The secret is we have to understand the signs that ALLAH ALMIGHTY send to our hearts in our daily life.

  • the shark attack was? not caused by GOD. GOD had sent her a sign not to go to sea in the day she was attacked by the shark but she didn't understand the sign (GOD'S warning) The sign was to go to Mexico and postpone that surfing day but she didn't realise the sign & thanks to GOD) who saved her life Just be careful next time Dear Bethany, I wish for you a prosperous life & future.

  • Bethany you are amazing!!!!!! i tried surfing before in Coasta Rica it was amazing the best thing i have every done.When we left i was scared i was not going to surf again for a while and i could not convince my parents to go again. BUT when my parents and i saw the move it inspired them to let me go to a whole week surfing camp in CA. I was inspired to always try again and never back down. GOB BLESS YOU BETHANY!!!!!!!!! YOU are my inspiration!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Bethany is like my role model

  • HONKY!!!!!!! SHIT HAPPENS! GET OVER IT!

  • i have so much respect for her

  • Comment removed

  • Please while reading this think about you.  Bethany Hamilton is a HUGE part of my life.When my family was stuck in a tough time i watched this movie and seen what a tough time she went threw....but i did realize another thing even though her are was RIPPED OFF by a shark that did not stop her from trying and trying and trying.So EVERYONE realy should try as hard as you can fight with all your might

  • GO BETHANY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @9billion12 do you gotta be an ass about everything. yo your on here for a reason. seriously foh if you cant quit being a dumb ass.

  • I find it so hard to believe that I'm 12 and she was like 13 when the shark attacked her. i would NOT be able to get back in the ocean like her and i love her for that. shes my inspiration. xo love you Bethany

  • BETHANY!!! YOU ARE MY LIFE!! :)

  • crycrycrycrycrycry

  • Thumbs up if the movie soul surfer made you realize how blessed you are.

  • Spiderman and superman are fake but this supergirl is real

  • @HiItzHaley haha nice nd yesss i didnt knw till like dhis yr cuz i was still 8 ithink aha xp im 15 now but beth is amazing

  • Bethany's my idol. And she made a good choice choosing Annasophia Robb to play her in the movie! She's awesome! :D

  • Surfing in Shark-polluted (or potentially / eventually is enough) waters is ALWAYS submerging a risk of life or at least a risk of being hurt badly including the loss of extremities. Some celebs may probably feeling too safe and forget about such dangers.

  • @berndpfe Yea she wasn't a "celeb" when this happened. She was 12

  • jesus bless all those who need our prayers especially Bethany

  • lol my name is bethany spelled the same way

  • ok

  • one foot forward. people like you and bethany r inspirational. ots amazing. good luck to you

  • I lost my leg last year due to a doctors fault when i was 2 messing up and crushing my foot with a plaster cast he put it on wrong and to tight i fought for years and lost in June 24th 2010 , you are my hero and have helped me not be ashamed of it i use to not ever go out in public, i left school and becamed homeschool because i couldnt handle it thank you so much, i really would like to meet you one day!

  • To whoever disliked/dislikes this video: you're probably going to Hell. Just sayin

  • I never went in the ocean again after Jaws came out.

    Bethany went surfing again 3 weeks after she survived a shark attack.

    Who has the kahunas?

    Bethany should get her own listing in Wikipedia under the definition of fearless. Rage on, girl!

  • If you seen the new movie, you want to see this documentary!

  • Out of something bad that happens, there is bound to be something good to come.(:

  • After a rough evening in the ER, I needed something to distract me from feeling down. God knew just what I needed at just the right time....Soul Surfer helped to change my perspective & it inspired me to keep on keeping on even when life hands me a bunch of sour lemons! TYJ!

  • OMG the video made me cry!:) when I was 7 I met her in hawaii and she had no arm!:( she such a fighter and a wonderful person!!!!

    Love u Bethany!;)

  • OK now this. . . this is a GREAT story of courage and dedication for what you love and very VERY inspiring.Personally I don't think that I could do what she has done overcoming all those fears is just . . .AMAZING.I am scared to DEATH by sharks in fact I am terrified.If smth. like that had happened to me I don't think I would have gotten in the water EVER again!BUT Bethany. . .she's really amazing she's my hero and a person I really look up to!

  • did they ever catch the shark that did it

    ?

  • @mrsinn Yes.

  • @mrsinn

    LOL

  • She's great to keep going like that! I honestly would've been freaked for a long time!

  • I've seen Soul Surfer a couple of times..

  • I went to the California Surf Museum today, the board she was on when the accident happened is on display there. I stood in front of it for a good ten minutes maybe more than that.

  • @derekhough123

    Wow that must have been something very humbling to see.....God took a horrible situation and used it for His glory. How many people would have heard about Bethany had she not lost her arm? Not as many, that's for sure.....God bless that girl and all she has been doing. She is truly inspiring!

  • omg i feel bad for her

  • Can someone tell me where I can watch this for free?

  • she is my true inspriation i will always remember her and her amazing story when i walked out of that movie theater something changed like i had a whole entire new perspective it was amazing :)

  • well, once again she's in the hospital because she lost her nerves from the knee down. GOD must be telling her to stop surfing. LOL

  • she's my hero she really is a soul surfer

  • In the movie Soul Surfer, supposedly, Annasophia Robb is a Christian, as of acting like Bethany, since she was chosen the role. I question sometimes if she really is, and I doubt. I don't know why because I really want Annasophia to be a Christian, she's an amazing role model and I have a Christian faith too. Can anyone tell me if Annasophia really is a Christian. Wikipedia says so, and I suppose Annasophia would be since Soul Surfer is a Christian movie, but I just want answers, please. :)

  • @lollypop2143 So if she isnt a Christian you cant like her anymore?

  • BETHANY U ROCK!!! u r my role model and hero!!! It's amazing how u just got back on ur board after a shark attack! I would never go back in the water if I got attacked by a shark. I saw "Soul Surfer" and I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!! its my fav movie. I just got the book and I seriously luv it!! I stayed up really late reading it!! luv ya Bethany!!!

  • Bethany Your A Strong Girl And You Are My Idol BEcause After The Attack You Still Got Out There And Surfed Your So Amazing! :)

  • @Brentsey She Wasnt messing with the shark she was surfing

  • People. dont be sorry for her, Shes a regular girl who had a tradic accedent and look what shes doing! Shes doing what nobody else would have done and thats get back out there and surf! thats amazing and you guys are coming out here feeling sorry for her!

  • @NeonCupcake1000 soo what obviously she's a inspiration and she means something to people and your just a hater.

  • @preeiaboo Umm maybe you should read my comment again and change what you said because im not a hater this is an inspiration but people are really sorry for her when they shouldnt. shes getting back out there and surfing and trying to be a normal teenager and she doesnt need people to feel sorry for her. your feeling sorry for her when shes doing something that you would never do. soo you should feel sorry for yourself(:

  • i read the story shark attack

  • I'm so sorry for her

  • people who dislike this vid have no lives!

  • @blackstar1598 - I'm going to choose to believe that the people that 'dislike' it simply dislike that it happened to her. Otherwise it's just sad.

  • so sad

  • @Savannahx712 me 2 !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • so sad!! bethany i hope you become the world's best surfer. i love you

    ur my idol

  • @Savannahx712 hello

  • im sorry that happened you didnt deserve that but if i can ask 1 question what was the first thing you thought of assoon as the shark bit your arm off? i can only imagine the pain you are way tougher than i am i could not survive that GO BETHANY

  • This is so sadd she the one who really got her arm off and they made the movie out of her her name and everything :(

  • This is so sadd she the one who really got her arm off and they made the movie out of her her name and everything

  • 2 people can't surf with one arm....(stupid dislikes)

  • sharks are actually very calm creatures. they dont want to attack humans, they dont even attack fish. they eat dead fish. when we arwe swimming and surfing, from bellow we look like a limp, dead fish. go bethany!!!

  • bethany sounds so amazing! goodnes.... i know so many people with the name bethany and they are just extraordinary! my sisters name is bethany and she is special needs and she is just one amazing person! surf on bethany hamilton!

  • @Brentsey Actually, I'm pretty sure laying on a surf board minding your own business isn't messing with a shark. She didn't do anything to make a shark bite her arm off, so have some sympathy, kay? Thanks.

  • i really think beathany is so strong

  • Bethany is my hero i look up to her!!!

  • bethany is my idol!

  • sadly yes.......it is really hurting right now so please pray for me... :(

  • I don't think I could ever go through what she went through. I can't picture what it would be like living with only one arm. And the fact that she got back in the water after such a tragedy just proves how brave she is. I would be traumatized of the ocean forever. She is such an inspiration. Team Bethany. <3

  • Who the fuck would dislike that. I'm from ireland, i never heard about this story until I heard carrie underwood was in a movie and checked it out. Absolutely amazing story and a beautiful girl. She should be so proud of herself. I dont think many people could have done what she did. Keep up the good work. You mean so much to so many people. Love from Ireland. We have some good waves here too and thankfully no sharks, weathers prob not as good tho but great fun to be had all the same.

  • how can someone dislike this?

    

  • @Savannahx712 that makes since she is my inspration i would kill to meet her :)

  • i lost my arm surfing....then i watched this movie....im glad im not the only one! :'(

  • @MrsAwesome659 Did you really???!!!

  • Who in the hell is the person who disliked this video?

  • shes awesome 4 getting bac on tht bored but... shes sounds weird. lol...

  • GO BETHANY! ...WAHOOO...YOU INSPIRE EVRYBODY :)

  • i think its amazing she found the will to surf again even after losing an arm

  • so touching!!!.. :(

  • I see this as not a test but a handicap like a drummer with one arm, its possible if you believe in a higher power and specially in yourself. This girl has it!

  • @Savannahx712 me 2 lolz

  • thumb ups if u cried !

  • my bestfriend lost her arm when we went to hawii with are familes i am happy she is still alive i love her and she is mostly my sister.
