Biography
Fritz Feierabend (29 June 1908 – 25 November 1978) was a Swiss bobsledder who competed at 1936, 1948 and 1952 Winter Olympics. He won three silver and two bronze medals in two-man and four-man events.
Feierabend also won twelve medals at the FIBT World Championships with six golds (two-man: 1947, 1950, 1955; four-man: 1939, 1947, 1954), three silvers (two-man: 1949; four-man: 1950, 1955), and three bronzes (two-man: 1938, four-man: 1935, 1949).
Feierabend retired after the 1955 World Championships. Together with his father he constructed bobsleighs, including the first all-steel bobsleigh.
