As a child he made a scary discovery

Actor Heino Ferch (60) spoke on the talk show “3nach9” on Friday evening (April 5) about a scary childhood experience. In a conversation with presenter Judith Rakers (48), he revealed that he discovered a corpse in the water while visiting an outdoor pool.

“It was scary – but that only came afterwards”

The crime star remembered the incident on the Radio Bremen talk show: “I was with my grandmother in Waldshut, which is in the south of Germany, in Baden-Württemberg not far from the Swiss border.” He played in the water with other children in an outdoor swimming pool on the river: “I was ten and someone came swimming past who wasn’t breathing all that much.”

It was actually a water corpse. “Then the lifeguard came and then at some point the police.” At first the whole thing seemed to have been an adventure for the boy: “We all stood there and were thrilled.” He was only ten and just thought to himself: “Oh, what’s going on now?” Only later did he realize what he had really experienced: “It was scary – but that only came afterwards.”
