You might be thinking of Donald Campbell who died in 1967 trying to break the world water speed record, but it was on Coniston Water, not Loch Ness.
The first record of a "beast" in the Loch or River Ness is in the account of the life of Saint Columba, written by the Irish monk Adomnán, somewhere around the start of the 7th Century AD. However the "monster" really only began to be recorded with the building of roads alongside the loch in the 1930's.
Loch Ossian.
There are currently 3 living Loch Ness monsters in the world; Two dwell in the actual Loch Ness in Scotland, and the third is believed to live somewhere in Mexico, after a dispute over utility bills led to her storming out of the Loch in the mid-90's. Until recently there was a fourth monster, however he died after succumbing to a lengthy battle with Prostate cancer in March 2007. Over 150,000 people attended the funeral- A Scottish record. Couldn't have put it better myself. Thing is, there are no 'Lochs' in Mexico. I did see a very small monster in a puddle once, or was it my reflection ? ....Hmmm... I shall let you be the judge of that. :-)
It's not in a river, it's in a "loch" or lake. Loch Ness to be precise, hence being called the "Loch Ness Monster".
The Loch Ness monster is said to be living in Loch Ness, this is where the name comes from. Loch Ness is the largest body of water in Great Britain and has always been surrounded by mythical tales. The Loch Ness monster is commonly referred to as "Nessie". Actually the Loch ness mosnter is not in Great Britain it is in Scottland.

No one has a record of definitely seeing the Loch Ness Monster, whether on land or in the water. Many have made claim, and hoaxes have been perpetrated, but there remains no definite proof that the Loch Ness Monster even exists.
it hasn't' died or at least they haven't found a body yet
Loch Oich
