BMW's new CEO faints on stage

The 49-year-old was making his first major appearance as boss and fainted five minutes in to the company's news conference. He has been the company's CEO since May.

BMW said Krüger's health was "stable and he is recovering well."

He saw the price tag of the new i8


Glad he's okay.

He better have a crew on standby to start spinning this in his favor. It's time for damage control.

CEO's and managers are fungible.

Right out of college in a management training program. One of the guys that was in the program with me fainted during a huge presentation in front of a bunch of executives. Well when he faints he smokes his chin on the podium and splits it wide open. Blood was everywhere. Needless to say he didn't pass that portion on the program and was recommend that he stay in a support role and not front line role.

And yet you'll never be as successful as the guy you're calling a pussy. Good job I guess.

He obviously doesn't have the chest to be CEO of BMW.

Locking his knees. Look at that first picture.

This one time, at Band Camp, we heard that mantra over and over. "Don't lock your knees while standing at attention." I once watched a girl drop face first onto a mellophone because of locking her knees while standing.
