😂my favorite comment of the day haha
So facts hahahah
Lol
Omg LOL. This comment has me rolling. Ty for this.
I'm glad he's ok. I did the same thing when I found out the price of a new M3 in Canada.
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
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

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 🤣🤣🤣

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
😅😅😅
I can see the exhaustion in his posture and voice . Hope he is ok
He must have seen the price tag on that car.
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

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
Wish He's Doing Okay.... 🙏
Must have seen the price of replacing a headlight unit on a G20 Series 3
He was actually demonstrating how people would react listening to the price.
Got emm
More like the new grills on 2021 BMWs

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
I once owned a BMTroubleyou. The operative word being 'once'.
Oh my !!!
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.
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
czcams.com/video/jXtt0EtNM0U/video.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
I felt the same after my car when out of warrenty and the 1st repair bill came in..
He provided a visual to customers of how they would react when they saw the price of the car.
He saw a turn signal
What's a turn signal? Is it the glow in dark handle inside the trunk?
😂😂😂
Hah
Wth hahahahah
Bobby Jay HAHAHAHAHAHAAH
as a foreigner you probably can’t tell, but you can here how his voice is literally dead with all these cracks

It took 8 years for the You-Tube algorithm to send me here. I came for the comments.
1. He probably remembered his BMW repair bill.
2. His wallet in his back pocket was too heavy.
3. He probably saw someone wearing a Mercedes-Benz AMG t-shirt in the crowd
4. BMW CEO: 8yrs have gone by no one is gonna remember that. CZcams: hold my algorithm.
5. This happens every time a BMW owner uses the indicators
6. when people said that he was a down-to-earth kinda guy, they weren't kidding.
7. When he got the news that his wife bought a Merc
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
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
When you see someone in the crowd wearing a Mercedes cap.
Yours is the coolest comment.
😂😂😂

Someone in the publicum was holding the bill for finding electricity problems and a malfunctioning ESP on his BMW E31.
He must have seen the price tag 😂
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

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 saw the repair cost on his bmw
he saw Greta Thunfish in the audience..

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.
