Notes
- ^ The 1936 official Olympic Report has the silver medalists listed as Josef Kampfl and Alois Edeltitsch, but information from Olympisch Enzyklopaedie Template:De icon, the Austrian Olympic Committee, and from Volker Kluge's Olympia Chronik Template:De icon all confirm that the actual silver medalists were Weinstabl and Proisl.
- ^ The official Olympic report, the International Canoe Federation (ICF), and http://www.sports123.com listed Josef Kampfl and Alois Edletitsch as the silver medalists while https://www.sports-reference.com, the authors Wallechinsky and Loucky, the Austrian Olympic Committee, Olympisch Enzyklopaedie Template:De icon, and Volker Kluge's Olympia Chronik Template:De icon have the silver medalists as Weinstabl and Proisl (both Austria).
