RIP Dieter Dengler (May 22, 1938 - February 7, 2001), aged 62
You will be remembered as a legend.
This video documents one of the bravest men who ever lived.
Met Dieter from his book Escape from Laos, the most amazing read of the Vietnam war for me. This documentary captures his emotional return from a place few humans will ever experience. Herzog nails it. Both are hero's in my world. RIP Dieter
What a MASTERPIECE of a film. Respect for posting.
Dieter and Duane were brothers. I felt really sad after knowing the fact that Duane was killed at just the age of 26years. They both were indeed brothers. True Bromance! It's sad, Duane's body wasn't recovered and his details are very limited. Did he have a family? What would have happened to that young man's body after nearly 40 years. I hope heaven is for real and both of them are together!
Handsome brave men! Love you!
An Amazing story, a true courageous Hero. God Bless his Soul.
Ridiculous how many clicks other videos have, which were made after the movie 2006 till today. And they are all garbage, this one is gold!!! Grüße aus NRW
Another fabulous documentary by Werner Herzog. Dieter had such an amazing spirit. I love how he opens and closes the door and shows off his food stocks in his emergency provisions pantry. Growing up during WW2 you can feel his hunger and his determination. I must say the napalm scenes always has stood out in my memory with the Tuvan throat singing - the images and the sound were so peculiar and bizarre sounding. I've got to watch this documentary again. RIP Dieter! ❤ (My throat got tight when I saw the missing man formation fly over in the postscript! Hope you are flying through the clouds in Heaven Dieter!)
respect to this legend! Rip Dieter
This man is a constant source of inspiration. We do not need Gods when men like Dieter walked the Earth. RIP Dieter. Christian Bale's performance was fitting tribute to this man's memory.
"We do not need Gods when men like Dieter walked the Earth". So beautifully put and I couldn't agree more.
WOW...that was such a powerful statement...HAVING THE PRIVILEGE OF OPENING AND CLOSING A DOOR. HAVING THAT FREEDOM...GOOSEBUMPS! I never thought of it like that before cuz opening and closing the door is done mostly without even thinking about it, it's crazy to think we take that privilege for granted all the time. powerfull stuff
I found a note I had written to myself from about 10 years ago... it said to watch this documentary. I'm so thankful I finally did. Amazing story, amazing hero!! Wish I hadn't waited so long! Thank you.
Amazing documentary. Watched it like 15 years ago, but scenes of it stuck with me.
Dieters suicide proves that you can end your own life with dignity on your own terms. He was in control of his life and his own death. I don't mourn his passing. I respect his struggle to live and I respect his decision to die. Great man. I only lament that his great greatness is no longer with us.
Astounding. Reference to Herzog's movie "Rescue Dawn". I am reminded of another true story, from WW2: "Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption" by Laura Hillenbrand (a phenomenal book). This planet gives rise to such extremes. Herzog is in a top class of his own.
I love Werner Herzog 👍
He loves you too. Told me so.
@@whynottalklikeapirat He rang me yesterday, he loves you too, you pirate of skullduggary.....🙌✌️
@@glenndouglas8822 That’s nice but I wish he would be more direct. “Shy artist” kind of thing perhaps … just oddly modest for a proposed Skull Lover …☠
@@whynottalklikeapirat Brilliant 🤣😂 respect 🙌
@@glenndouglas8822 Turns out, rather disappointingly, that skullduggery may actually have nothing to do with skulls :( leave it to Merriam/Webster to be complete buzzkillers:
“Skulduggery, which can also be spelled "skullduggery," was first documented in the mid-19th century spelled as "scull-duggery."
Etymologists aren't sure exactly how the word arrived in English, but they do not believe it has anything to do with skulls.
It is possibly derived from the now-very-rare "sculduddery," a term once used to refer to gross or lewd conduct, but unfortunately the origins of that word are also unknown”
But ok, I guess I can live with the gross or lewd conduct as well, I mean, “a poirates loife fer me”. And all that …
Crazy I’ve driven by his house many of times on Mt Tam even went inside one time after a concert at The Cushing Memorial Amphitheater. Never knew who owned it or that it was in a documentary
The inner flame of man can never be extinguished,I am amazed at how resilient we are.😘
Blown away by the courage and fortitude of this man. Can’t believe only 8.7k have watched this incredible story. The rest of the planet are missing out
A lot of other people have seen it outside of youtube
Thank you for your service.
Thanks!
This video worth more views!
Excellent Documentary, watched the movie then this, 👌 amazing, thankyou
PTSD ain’t a joke nigga
Endearing and utterly priceless doc one of my all time favs of alltime. Good things can result from very bad just look at Vietnam now a powerhouse of SE Asia global manufacturing out competing China on prive, quality with rapid lead-times. My buddy Palmer from Austin has a factory and home there producing lamps for Restoration Hardware and Pottery Barn Home. Its kudos to the strength solely of the Vietnamese people putting up with 150 years of Western invasions.
Only after they repudiated Marxist doctrine, which makes the entire war ironic because they wound up embracing capitalism anyway.
this guy is very much a glass half full type of individual.
p51 mus-spitfire was my favourite plane
I used to fly B 52 Thunderbolts !! ✌😂
Open the door. I'm not dead yet. Though it's inevitable.
Emitional, a brave man.
It turns out that 'Dieter Dengler' translates from German into English as 'Balls of Absolute Brass'.
So sad how he ended his life, i hope he researched his father and found out all he could about him during his war?, the picture to me looks like he has luftwaffe collar boards on a wehrmacht uniform?, he more than likely was a forward air controller, maybe where the interest in flying came from!!, its not about the uniform its about the type of man who's made to wear it, a very interesting if not complex man, who was forever troubled through his experience, RIP deiter....
anyone knows what they shot this on back then?
An American would be so traumatized by this and this German is just like “let me show you in great detail how they chained me up and tortured me”
Buckles sent me here
I read his book by pure chance.

This man went through all this, but committed suicide after having a successful life in America. Life, and death, eh?
The nightmares and demons from his ordeal had never left him and he checked out on his own terms.
Extraordinary life and remarkable survival story, but it would leave an indelible mark on anyone.
Edit: He was also diagnosed with ALS sometime in 2001, which was probably another contributing factor.
Requiescat in pace Dieter Dengler. We hope you have finally found your peace.
He was diagnosed with a progressive, debilitating, and incurable disease.
Hard to judge others with any real understanding of all the facts. If you have special powers no one else does, then congratulations! Otherwise, what's your point? Dieter's life alone stands for much honor on so many levels.
