Rolf Magener (3 August 1910 – 5 May 2000) was the first German prisoner to escape successfully from India during World War II. His daring escape from a camp at Dehradun in 1944 with mountaineer Heinrich Harrer is documented in Megener's memoir, Prisoner's Bluff. After the war he became a successful business executive and chief financial officer for BASF, and held a senior level position with Mercedes-Benz.
