I am deeply saddened to see this poor man faint. I hope he made a speedy recovery.
Low blood pressure and sugar no eat enough take supplements in lieu of food he must done some running and gym prior speech this is all
‘faint’ ….is that what they’re calling it now?
Well, it's a 7 years old video.
well.. maybe not poor but yes it sucks that he fainted.
poor man ? boy he makes so much money a month you make in a whole life
Nothing embarrassing about having a medical condition. Happy to hear he was okay
@nikola poyukov -30IQ
@nikola poyukov you sir you debunk myths of our time
I totally agree
@nikola poyukov lolo you tough man not being emphatetic to look tough, very smolll
It’s dehydration and lack of nutrition. I once did that in front of my whole school. Didn’t have breakfast that day.
He probably saw someone wearing Mercedes-Benz t-shirt inside the crowd
this deserves more likes lol
loool n1 🤣
is that mercedes guy still alive?
Underrated
Best comment award goes to you boi !
He just saw visions of the new BMW grill
I'm glad he's ok. I did the same thing when I found out the price of a new M3 in Canada.
See y'all in 5 years when this gets recommended again
Yeah see you again bro I wonder what I will be doing in 5 years from now
Byeee
Bro just recommended to me 😂😂😂
The recent purge of independent controversial creators has left KZhead lacking
Hi 😂
Guy probably wasn't feeling well that day but chose to power through work like most of us do. hope he's ok.
Exactly my thoughts!!!!!!!!!!!💔
Well said
Work is really what wears us humans down and ages us. But what can ya do
If this was post 2020, I'd know exactly why his heart stopped beating!
@@meowchat6175what are you talking about? Your heart doesn’t stop beating when you collapse.
That's what happens to me when I see the price tags in a dealership lot
He must have seen the price tag on that car.
You could hear by his voice that he is not feeling well
Nah it's just the German language

Pure!
Sooo accurate
xd
😅😂
🤣🤣🤣
It’s happened to me too! You feel like you can’t control yourself! It’s really bad feeling 😢
Sorry for him. Glad to know he's recovered.
Guys it's fine, he was just doing a demonstration of how the audience would react after seeing the prices
Hahaha😂😂😂😂
Think he was just given his service 2 bill,i know how he feels😀
Im literally LMFAOING
And then the prices on repairs lol it’s like rebuying the car again to fix it.
This needs more likes 🤣🤣🤣
Being a CEO isn't easy...it takes a lot of you. Hope he's better now. He seriously needs to rest
Whats the company you were CEO at?
@@iair-conditiontheoutsideai3076 He's just saying a general statement. He wasn't implying that he was a CEO.
Akmal Danial I’m sure the guy knows that. Just being a smartass

yeah DEO is better then you dont smell..
I can see the exhaustion in his posture and voice . Hope he is ok

Like it just happened. Again and again for eternity.

Oh no, poor man. Hope he is ok.
The German press says something like......Why Harald Krüger has so many enemies in the business world.......who knows who he stood in the way of, he didn't extend his contract at BMW. To me, this looks like a stroke.
His bmw repair bill just flashed in front of his eyes. And he fell down.

This guy crashing to the ground is a reminder its time to donate some of his excess wealth to people like me ... I float into the air all the time ...
He just realised what the price of one of those things is
Like how bmw cars keep collapsing on the roads too
This happens to me when I see the price of these cars.
LMFAO!
+MatthiasRosberg that's what I was thinking too. I think he saw the sticker price and he fainted. Hope he's ok.
yeah
Yeah I hope he's ok. I could afford a new BMW but £30k is a bit steep for something that does the same job as a £15k Ford.
or a $15,000 used 2014 Toyota Camrey
Right from the start he didn't sound okay. His voice seemed really shaky.
The start of the clip. Before this he were already talking there for hours
Actually he was showing customer's reaction to price kzhead.info/sun/qsiDfLOMjX-Olp8/bejne.html
Thanks champ. I didn't notice it😃
No thats just the german language 😅😂
sounded like stage fright / anxiety to me

He saw a turn signal
What's a turn signal? Is it the glow in dark handle inside the trunk?

First a military general fainting at a press conference and now the BMW CEO collapsing on stage... KZhead seems to really like to recommend me people falling over and fainting today
lowkey think they are planning to have a famous person faint sometime this week and we are just getting ready for it. Like movie trailers.
As someone who has a fainting problem...youtube likes to highten my anxiety lol
I saw that video too
You have to see the german economy minister falling from the stage. Its hilarious😂😂
same
He caught a glimpse of the price tag for the car next to him.
The fainting starts from his voice. Boom i heard it starting to slurrrr
who else felt really bad for him who else got this recommended to them for no reason
@Audy Simon bro you good ?
Nice, double like begging comment, how uncommon
kzhead.info/sun/nbytpJR9q4CDY40/bejne.html it's my recommendation that if you know hindi you should watch this please
I was watching crocodiles dying during a drought then this popped up
Who else ask random people for an opinion cause he is a lowkey live with no own real mind
Don't make fun guys, making fun is easy but being a CEO of BMW is never easy.
its not easy being ceo for anything
Call the fun police quick
Hey listen! Life hack: What if it was both difficult to be ceo of bmw AND this video was funny AT THE SAME TIME. 😉😉😉
I used to be in a position where I was able to see what the CEO did for a company. They're workaholics by choice. My CEO worked every single day. He only takes off for big holidays like Christmas. And he did that by choice. He loves working
U speak like u have ever been CEO of BMW
Wishing the gent well.
And Harald Krüger later did not seek an extension of his contract with BMW when it expires. His tenure at BMW lasted only 5 years.
as a foreigner you probably can’t tell, but you can here how his voice is literally dead with all these cracks
I dont speak german, but his voice was crackly and broke at one point, like a teenage boy
I meam you could even see him struggling for balance the entire time. He shouldn't have gone out on stage like that to begin with
@@hooman008 that was the most progressive think I have seen all day...I am sure you parents are very proud of you mate..good job

This appeared on my recommendation
Sorry BMW. KZhead is still recommending this video and NO this will never be forgotten. I really feel sorry for the man though.
Mans saw his own car prices on the teleprompter.
Can't imagine the kind of stress he must be under. Hope he's alright
finally someone with a little empathy
He's pushing himself the limits. A hard worker obviously. One must remember to rest and take a break from time to time if you must enjoy the work of your hands.
This happened 5 years ago, he’s fine now lol
Exactly! empathy empathy empathy empathy empathy
It happend 5 years ago
Anyone who's fainted knows exactly how terrible this man felt.
It's the worst feeling ever!
Oh yeah I do. Fainted do to a medical issue I have with my head hitting a table that knocked me out for a few minutes and got myself a bump the size of a Egg. Face was very bruised that it looked like someone had it me.
I faint about 8 times /yrar. My BP goes down so fast and I faint. It's horrible.
@@olivia6063 Worst part for me is the massive headache that i feel is a migraine after the fainting spell. And i'm not big on taking pain pills that much even after the spells. Didn't even take them when i had my toes operated on.
honestly I can tell you, it's a horrible feeling nobody should know. I feel for this man. This is not something to laugh about.
Relax Boys! He must've seen a Mercedes passing by.
He saw the repair cost on his bmw
Man trying to forget his awkward moment on stage 5 years ago: KZhead’s algorithm: Imma end this man’s career
I remember watching this video 5 years ago lol, good times 😂
More than youtube, WSJ had decided to remind everyone by uploading a 39sec clip on youtube, for years to come.
😂 🤣 🤣
Finally someone uses this meme correctly lol
😅😅😅
Everyone is human, everyone has a breaking point.
TRUE
His was around 50000kms
@@jasonj8632 oh my god
He had a stroke, all symptoms are evident.
I admire his dedication to the brand and his conviction in what he was saying about the car.
He must have seen the price tag 😂
This is relatable when you are under serious stress and havent slept due to your work the mind may remain active but the body needs some rest and time off. Sad to see him like that
“This happens every time a BMW owner uses the indicators” a spokesperson later said
LOLOL! This is underrated!!

Wait..they have indicators?!?

What even happened to him im curious
Big Al Allosaurus it was his first public speech as a CEO for BMW so he was very nervous and lost consciousness under the pressure. At least thats what german newspapers wrote to that time 👍🏻
@@dennisl1457 oh stage fright?

You should check the price, then bark
At least that car has quality
0 in Spain also is cheap af. With 30000 you can go home with a full optional class C
Botmin your comment made my day! 😂😂😂😂
When you see a Mercedes Benz!

lol but company like you to work, company happy you work so hard you feint. Company make you CEO.
Nope. Just failed assasinate

😂😂😂
🥲😅🤣😂😭🗿💀👻
Lol
Then get rich duh
The resale value of BMW's and Mercedes' drop like a rock. It's incredible, but the dependability of these German made cars has also dropped like a rock. Would you believe the Germans are using plastic water pumps and other plastic parts in their engines? In addition, they are incredibly difficult to work on because they are so complex. There are sensors everywhere which compounds the problem. Would you believe once, long ago, German made cars would last 300,000 miles. Now they dump them after 5 years. If you're a mechanic, owning a BMW is no problem. Otherwise, forget it.
He saw the new mark up on the electric line up and could not beleive it!

@@bunsenn5064 It was around 4 I believe. You need at least 400+hp to get 3.3

Take care of yourself boss man!
He saw the price tags and reliability rating, that's why he passed out. Maybe he shouldn't have woken up.
His voice was trembling the moment he started speaking . Such kind of falls happen due to extreme fatigue.
@@linkinemerson8620 could u please elaborate
@@linkinemerson8620 yes, you are right. I don’t know if that is what made him fall/faint, but the fear (or even phobia) of public speaking can definitely result in that.
@@linkinemerson8620 your mentioned reasons can also be true! But here in his case I think it's excessive workload fatigue seems a valid reason of making his body fall like that ! ... "Stage fear , lacking confidence!!" - you can't say that about a CEO OF SUCH BIG COMPANY AS BMW ! ..for a normal person yes! But for this CEO he just needed some rest physically and mentally. Being a CEO of BMW( or any big company) , the weight of your company's success depends heavily on your actions. Sometimes they really do work/overwork excessively beyond a normal human physical and mental work ethic ! Thus these falls can happen! it's totally understandable.
From medical perspective, that can happen if you had li’l too much to drink too. Fatigue, no, I don’t think so. Your voice to quiver and slur like that is not fatigue. Passing out in fatigue you just blacks out since your brain shuts down. But he knew how to fall down. He was intoxicated enough to control himself.
A CEO should be seasoned enough to have done many public speeches. CEO is not any random Joe who is put on the stage. These are seasoned bigwigs and stage fright wont collapse them. He was completely embarrassed and drunk
He worked too hard, he’s absolutely exhausted. Poor guy. A hard working ceo!
Poor guy! I know what are trying to say but this is diaz
Yes people should be compassionate. He must have gone through a lot of pressure.
@@stronkafvro5547 what is diaz ?
@@leandromadeireira8840 diaz nuts...
All ceo are hard working
He was already talking kinda weirdly but it didn't really look like he fainted. It looked like he was trying to go backwards but tripped
Hat's off to you. You are brave and braver are those who have given positive comments about you.
He got too close to the BMW behind him and caught a glimpse of the price tag.
I can't stop laughing

Well quallity got his price
You heard it In his voice when he started talking.
Ya I could hear it too
And you could see it very clearly
Yeah, that one high lilt? where his voice breaks,. Weird,. Cluster migrane perhaps...
Could he have been nervous?
Omg hope not a stroke
