Daniel Schmidt is a German policeman and trampoline gymnast who participated in every regular Ninja Warrior Germany season, Team Ninja Warrior Germany 1 & 2 and Ninja Warrior Germany All-Stars 1 & 2. In Ninja Warrior Germany, Daniel Schmidt is well-known as one of the seven people who have a perfect regular season attendance record (the others are Christian Balkheimer, Christian Kirstges, Gary Hines, Marvin Mitterhuber, Moritz Hans and Sladjan Djulabic), and is therefore one of the most expereienced athletes of ths show. And despite the facts that he has never made it as far as the Third Stage in the regular competitions and that he has had some setbacks since his personal best in Ninja Warrior Germany 6, he is still considered as one of the most successful, best and fastest competitors of the show. He has not only proven that in the aforementioned Ninja Warrior Germany 6, but also in both Ninja Warrior Germany All-Stars seasons, as he made it to the Finals in both of these seasons.
Outside of his performances in Ninja Warrior Germany, Schmidt also participated in Seasons 1 & 3 of the German gameshow Big Bounce – Die Trampolin Show. In the first season of that show (in 2018), he managed to reach the Finals, and in the third season (in 2023), he made it all the way to the Semi-finals duel, being eliminated just one round before the Grand Final Duel.
