Yamaha Warns Not to Pull a Ghosn and Hide in Cases

Carlos Ghosn copycats are making Yamaha ( OTCMKTS:YAMCY) nervous and wanting to avoid lawsuits. People are trying to copy Carlos Ghosn’s successful escape from Japan by hiding in a Yamaha audio equipment case, and Yamaha doesn’t want this to end in a lawsuit in case somebody gets asphyxiated or otherwise injured by using the cases in ways that they weren’t designed for, such as crossing international boundaries undetected. Yamaha is asking customers not to climb into these cases, which is becoming a viral phenomenon called the “Ghosn Escape Challenge” which, thankfully, isn’t quite as stupid as eating Tide pods at least. Posts have been showing up on social media demonstrating how it can be done. “We will not mention the reason, but many tweets have been scattered about stories of people entering large instrument cases,” the company wrote on Twitter over the weekend. “Musical instrument and audio equipment cases are designed to hold musical instruments and audio equipment. Please use them correctly.” Wise words from a wise company.
