Talk:Rudolf Nierlich

Easy going
When Rudi was asked by news media representatives, after a win (or a top result) he had no fully fledged explanation, he choosed to explain in German: "Wenn es läuft, dann läuft es". I would like to try to translate it as "talking about how easy (or difficult) it is to do something". (If it is going to be successful, it goes okay, it is tough going, it never stops going). - Rudi didn't appear as he would be a serious ski racer rather thoughtless. But his behaviour looked diffently - indeed he did a good job - in other rest he wouldn't be able to accomplish three gold medals. Partciulary, his victory in the Slalom in FIS Alpine Skiing World Championships 1989 was a demonstration for meticulously precise accomplishment (a very long course which required as well good condition as cleverness). - Rudi died in the early morning of Saturday, May 18th, 1991. He (the only one in his car) steered his car heading for home and crashed into an exterior wall of a house (he was instantly dead). 213.225.35.71 (talk) 18:44, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I would like to add that Rudi's giant slalom victory at the 1991 World Championships did hang by a thread. He did loose an important seal on his racing suit. Such a seal is attached by the FIS at all racing suits which are inspected by that Association (and did meet requirements, of course). It is told that his opponents (at first the other two racers on the podium) did announce that they wouldn't claim. One of the FIS Officials took Rudi's racing suit in order to check. Several days later the FIS did confirm the race result. 213.225.37.22 (talk) 19:36, 1 January 2017 (UTC)
