Josef "Sepp" / "Bubi" Bradl (8 January 1918 – 3 March 1982) was an Austrian ski jumper who competed during the 1930s and 1950s.[1] He was born in Wasserburg am Inn, Bavaria.
Following World War II, Bradl wasn't allowed to compete in 1948 Olympics because he was a Sturmbannführer in the paramilitary Nazi organization Sturmabteilung.
He returned to competition in the early 1950s and was the first winner of the Four Hills Tournament in 1952/53, this time representing his home country of Austria. He would earn one of his post-war victories at the Olympia hill in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, West Germany in 1953 as part of the Four Hills tournament, then earn his final career victory the following year in Bischofshofen, Austria.
After retiring, he became a ski jumping coach, coaching the national teams of Germany and Austria. He lived in Mühlbach am Hochkönig in the province (state) Salzburg where he died in March 1982.
