KRIEGLER, ERICH

Contributed by: The James Bond Movie Encyclopedia by Steven Jay Rubin

Powerfully built East German biathlon champion and henchman of Soviet agent Aris Kristatos (Julian Glover), portrayed by John Wyman in For Your Eyes Only. Bond (Roger Moore) first sees him when ice skater Bibi Dahl (Lynn-Holly Johnson) points him out during a biathlon competition in the snows of Cortina d’Ampezzo in the Italian Alps. Kriegler tries to kill Bond during a ski chase, but 007 escapes. Later, during the battle at St. Cyril’s atop the Meteora cliffs in Greece, Bond pushes Kriegler through a window to his death.
