BMW Chief executive, Harald Krueger, 49, fainted just five
minutes into his press
conference this morning at the Frankfurt auto show where he was to
present the car giant's new electric hybrid. The high-powered
executive staggered backwards slightly before falling over. He looked
stunned as he lay on the ground holding his head with his hands.
The
show's commentator said to the crowd: 'I'm a bit lost for words. BMW
will try to redo the press conference at a later stage.'
Krueger was
helped from the stage by two assistants and seen by a doctor, following
his 'moment of dizziness'. It is understood that Mr Krueger was feeling
unwell before taking to the stage.
