It's all good to diss him but it would be a bloody hard thing to have that happen not even seeing the full thing at Manfield a few rounds back I still cant stay for ages in quiet space imagine how he feels actually holding the biker and feeling life pass away in your hands I feel sorry for him

Good on ya John

Does this mean, when we go to the movie, can I tell my grandkids that King Kong is a Kiwi Biker and he lives in Auckland? Cheers John.

Is he the same they got in to do the comparing at Rosebank Speedway? A real motormouth,and the local crowd gave him a hard time - but it was water off a ducks back,he's got a pretty thick skin...and down there they thought it was more than his skin that was thick....

**heavenly.talker** · 21st November 2005, 08:23

I was thinking about this...

I can't believe you are bollocking a guy who did a genuinely nice thing. He Stopped to help/comfort someone in need.
With all the shite stuff happening in our world this is the type of behaviour we should be encouraging and celebrating!!!
Mouthing off is easy, bringing it isn't...GROW UP AND GET A BRAIN!

EDIT: This is only aimed at those on this thread that have been detracting.

It's disappointing that some have had a go at John Campbell. He could have stayed in his cab and thought "fuck that, I'm not getting involved". He's a celebrity and has a high profile career. Do you really think he did what he did to get recognition? If so, I am sorry for you. And I sincerely hope it never happens to you.

People have there opinions on tv personalities etc, get over it.
Lots of people do good things, doesn't mean you have to like them especially if you don't agree with everything else they do.
I personally think it was a nice gesture that you'd expect any decent human being to do.
