    No one before or after, has ever come near what Donald Campbell achieved.
    Bravery and determination sums this British man up.
    Donald still holds the record for breaking both Land and Water speed records in the same year, a feat that only he has achieved.
    I salute you.🙏
    R.I.P
    D.Cambell.

    RIP Sir Donald. I was only a child when we lost you and i remember watching Bluebird go up in the air. Always wondered what happened to you, now you can rest on dry land. Bless you, one spirit, one hero, one champion!

      You all have hopefully grown up a bit after this year old comment. Ink Black says the right thing but in an inappropriate way in respect to this moving video about a great HUMAN. You people are desecrating this service, undignified and ill-informed. Last I knew there were jet black people everywhere now. Get used to it or crawl under a rock.

    Yes that's correct this is why there was probably a lack of media coverage on it. Many thanks for your comments.

    My nan use to look after his daughter Gina when she was a child. She's about the same age as my dad. My dad met Donald about a week before the crash and he knew Leo Villa fairly well. I forget the job he did at the time but I do know he use to go in Leo's house and have breakfast with him and it was at this time he went there and Leo introduced my dad to Donald.Rest in peace Donald and Leo.

      Donald Campbell had told his family that if anything happens to him, that skipper and boat remain together. And his sister wanted to keep her word to him... so hence why she didn't want him brought up or the boat.

    Pretty sure his daughter didn't want him brought up, should've let him and the family rest where he was. All for someone else's ego.

      I'm sorry I don't know the artist but this is the name of it. It's called Peer Gynt Suite No. 1, Op. 46:11. The Death of Ase-III. Anitra's Dance. It's long I know but it's absolutely beautiful.

    Very beautiful place. So much respect for a man who rather risked his life in pursuit of greatness than to live in mediocrity. The date is significant here as the world was reeling from the 9/11 attacks. Did Donald Campbell's belated funeral become an elegy for our lost world?
