Bogdan Norčič (19 September 1953, Kranj – 4 April 2004, Cerklje na Gorenjskem) was a Yugoslavian ski jumper of Slovene ethnicity.

[1] On 20 March 1977, Norčič crashed during an attempt at the world world record for longest ski jump.

Although he soared a world record distance of 181 metres (594 ft) from Velikanka bratov Gorišek K165 in Planica in Yugoslavia, the feat was not official because he failed to land safely.

[2][3] The same distance would be achieved as an official record, in 1983, by Pavel Ploc at Harrachov, and would be exceeded by Matti Nykänen at Oberstdorf in 1990.

This was the first ever ski jump over 180 metres in history.
