biography

Jürgen Feindt completed a technical internship in a factory after graduating from school. Since 1950 he took dance lessons, from 1952 he appeared at the Bavarian State Opera , later also at the Deutsches Theater . In 1954 he was engaged at the Dresden State Theater, in 1956 he studied dance and acrobatics in Berlin . Shortly afterwards, the Komische Oper Berlin brought him in as a solo dancer. He was an ensemble member of the touring group “Berliner Ballett”, with whom he toured throughout Europe and South America, and later to Africa and Asia. From 1961 to 1965 he was a solo dancer at the Deutsche Oper Berlin .

At that time, Feindt also took on the design of choreographies in entertainment programs like Lieben Sie Show? (1966), Everyday Life with Music (1967) and The Golden Shot (1970), in which he set accents with acrobatic and comic interludes. He made his bald head a trademark by shearing it completely. 1969–1970 he had his own slapstick series with Der Musikboxer , in which he played the boxer Bimbo.

In the 1960s and 1970s, Feindt was regarded as a TV jerk and slapstick star. Over the years he has appeared in over 80 television games and more than 20 feature films, but mostly only in small roles. In most of the films he has appeared in, even on more significant assignments, he barely spoke more than three words. In the television game Die Kunst der Klamotte, for example, he played his role completely mute. In the role of the professor's assistant, he played the same role as the professor. The fact that he also took roles in sex films like the Schoolgirl Report , in which he played some extremely raunchy scenes, did not detract from his career.

He took part in the Karl May Games in Bad Segeberg in 1977 in The Black Mustang and in the summer of 1978 in Durchs Wilde Kurdistan .

Feindt, an avid private aviator, died in 1978 near the Schopfheim district of Gersbach in an aircraft accident involving a single-engine sports machine.

His grave is located in the Grünwald forest cemetery near Munich.
