The radio play and voice actor Wolfgang Draeger died at the age of 95.
This was announced by his children on Instagram on Tuesday evening.
The radio play label Europa confirmed the death on Wednesday to the German Press Agency.
Draeger was the German dubbing voice of Woody Allen.
The star's special way of speaking never caused him any problems, Draeger said in an interview in 2015: "Because I'm partly like that myself.
I stutter and I have a penchant for psychopaths and lunatics.”
In "Sesame Street", Draeger lent his voice to the big yellow bird Bibo.
But the man from Hamburg was also known to a wide audience from children's and young people's radio plays such as "TKKG" and "Die Drei ???".
As an actor, Draeger appeared in the ZDF series "The Legacy of the Guldenburgs".
