According to Bethany in her book Soul Surfer, when she got bit, all she felt was a lot of pressure and lightning-fast tugs. It didn't really hurt her because scientifically, during major injuries, your body is aware of the injury but pain signals are not sent to the brain until later on (known as phantom pain)
She did not cry panic or scream
NO but it might have been because she was in shock.
