Donald Campbell in 1964
In 1964 Donald Campbell, son of Sir Malcome Campbell, broke the world water speed record on Lake Dumbleyung, Western Australia in his jet boat Bluebird. This record also confirmed a unique world record, I belive still standing, that a man broke the world water speed and the world land speed record in the same calender year. He achieved this with just hours remaining on the 31st December 1964! Not bad eh! The formal announcement was made at the Dumbleyung Tavern that evening! Happy New Year.
