Other mistake: When Bethany Hamilton and her friends go to Phuket (Thailand), she sits down with a native Thai lady and a translator. The woman is telling the story of how she lost her entire family to the massive wave. Unfortunately, the woman is not speaking Thai at all. She is speaking Indonesian.
Other mistake: During the montage for Ross Rhea, there's a clip on the teleprompter showing Ross fighting multiple members of the other team. In the clip, Ross is shown playing for the St. John's Shamrocks and fighting members of the Québec team, but the score ticker at the top of the screen shows the score "MTL 5 BOS 2", two teams in another league that have nothing to do with the game being played.
