Dieter Wolfgang Büttner (born 24 February 1949) as a retired West German hurdler who competed in the 400 m event at the 1972 Summer Olympics. In the semifinals he tumbled over Christian Rudolph, who had obstructed his path. The West German team launched a protest, but it was rejected because Büttner had no chance to reach the final anyway. Büttner held the German 400 m title in 1971 and 1972. After retiring from competitions he worked as a teacher of physical education, geography and Evangelicalism.[1]
