Campbell Shatters Water Speed Record On Lake England
Britain's Donald Campbell powered Bluebird to a world water speed record of 225.63 mph on the second run after a near wreck. Early speeds reached 286.78 mph before the boat swung and fumes filled the cockpit. Campbell finished the run semi conscious, praising the tense effort as timekeepers logged 16440 mph on the second leg. The feat extends his earlier marks and surpasses the 179.49 mph record set in 1952 by Stanley Sayres. Campbell, 1 year old son of Sir Malcom Campbell, had planned only trials but achieved the record amid cheers from lakefront spectators.
