No
Yes they did, Bethany says it was caught by Ralph Young and Billy Hamilton. You can even find a picture of it in her book.
She has blonde hair and one arm
Actually, she did, somewhat. The "off in the distance" one-arm surfing scenes were actually done by Bethany Hamilton herself
Bethany Hamilton, a professional surfer who survived a shark attack, has a distinctive voice due to the way her jaw was affected after the incident. The attack resulted in the loss of her left arm, and the subsequent surgeries and recovery processes may have influenced her speech patterns. Additionally, her unique vocal quality could also stem from her natural speaking style and personality, which have remained resilient and positive despite her challenges.
Of course Bethany is a real name
Somewhat. But the meaning behind that name is because her faith in Jesus Christ helped her to win the fight in beating the odds of never being able to surf again. And, to Bethany, surfing is her passion and her way of life
No, she wore a green sleeve and it was edited later on to make the illusion that she had no arm. Most of the surf scenes, you don't see her face because it's actually Bethany Hamilton surfing. Pretty smart how they did it, hey?
