 It's here that the 18-year-old Cameron Lancaster disappeared under water. His body was found at Prestohill Quuarry four hours after the emergency services were called. The precise details of Carmeron's death have not yet been revealed, but it's believed that it may have been connected to the online fundraising campaign, the ice bucket challenge. -I think they were trying to do some sort of item with that, and then just obviously you know what happened after that, you know what I mean. Obviously that's for goodness as well. He was a great guy then, ** wasn't about point at his body, you know. He's clever, smart, kind, funny, and so intelligent, you know, you had a great ** ahead of them. Such a shame and such a shame! Police didn't have found one's body. If anyone's gonna do a bit thanks ** for him, definitely.

Cameron's family from Burntisland, Fife, said they were finding it hard to come to terms with his son's death. In a statement, they said, Cameron died in a tragic1 accident. His death is such a great loss. During his short life, he touched so many people with his friendliness2, kindness and thoughtful generosity3 of spirit.  
With participants including former U.S. presidents and the biggest names in films, ball to music, the ice bucket challenge has become one of the biggest viral Internet crazes of recent times, and it's helped raised millions of pounds for charities around the world. But experts say even reasonably safe if uncomfortable stunts4 like this can become dangerous as the people push the boundaries.
-Well, they start out very well-meaning, well-intention, you gonna get several celebraties doing these stunts for charity, and then what happens is people catch on. They kind of vote each other to do it, or nominate each other, and then it's all over on timelines. It's all over on Fackbook, all over Twitter, and particularly for the kids, that's a thing they want to do something a little bit different to everybody else. 
The police said they were trying to establish the full circumstances of the teenager's death and their source will with his family.
