The American writer Bethany Meilani Hamilton is famous for her skills when it comes to surfing.
She was once a shark attack survivor, which caused her left arm to be bitten off in 2003. She was still passionate about being a surfer, so Bethany returned to surfing after months, although she only has one arm now.
Bethany made her experience of being a survivor an inspiration, so she published a book in 2004 titled “Soul surfer: A true story of faith, family, and fighting to get back on the board.”
Later on, her autobiographical book became a movie film in 2011.
Bethany Hamilton is currently 31 years old. She was born on February 8, 1990.
She originally came from Lihue, Hawaii, United States of America. Her parents are Thomas R. Hilton and Cherilyn Hilton.
She has two siblings who are younger and older than her, named Noah Hamilton and Timothy Hamilton.
