Exactly 25 years ago, on August 31, 1997, Diana, Princess of Wales, died after a fatal crash in a Paris car tunnel in the back of a Mercedes-Benz S280 of the W140 series.
Since then, there have been numerous myths and conspiracy theories surrounding the course of the accident.
In this video, Wolfgang H. Inhester, then Director of Global Communications at Mercedes-Benz and my guest in podcast episodes 97 and 98, describes how he experienced the accident from a Mercedes perspective and the press coverage that followed, and how Mercedes-Benz helped to clarify the course of events and the astonishing findings that were made at the time regarding the safety of this series.
By the way, not the only drama for Mercedes-Benz this year - shortly afterwards a vehicle of the newly introduced Mercedes A-Class should tip over... He talks to me about the failed moose test in the podcast episode 98!
