Apart from the astronauts he was one of my favourite characters in NASA's history. He provided a whistlestop tour of the pad operations like as if there was no place like home. The pad was his home, he made his territory so much that he earned the nickname 'The Pad Feuhrer'! LOL.
Aaah Gunther Wendt... I wonder where Gunther went. Zitate "Apolo 13" with Tom Hanks during preparation before start. I buyed me the VHS Kasette for 19.99DM in 1997 as a 12 year old kid and knew the name of this legend since then. But now in 2013 i receive the sad message about his death... well so long, hes in a place where hopefully everyone of us will meet again :) RIP Günther and we Germans are not picking on you why Günther went away :)
He deserves a movie about his life.... Hi all from Montreal Canada ....

He served two, with distinction.

ROTFL. That Guenter line is one of my favorite scenes ... Ha, ha... You walk on ze Moon eh? - Ja, ja. We'll walk, and we talk on ze Moon.
Humanity always needs these people that are beyond normal capabilities. He was a special person.
I wonder where Guenter Wendt? RIP
2:18 or as some of his astronauts called him,
"Pad Führer"
@AtlantisSaturn amen, God rest the soul of a true legend.
0:52 Haha, proof that no matter how strict he was on safety, Guenther had a sense of humor, giving that giant gag pair of pliers. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
rip
How about some nice music with this video. A little Mozart, not to loud. Or anything else that's a proper fit for his beautiful soul.
