9 Things You Should Know about the Intimidating Chef Ramsay

7. Chef Ramsay Almost Died…TWICE

Ramsay had become extremely curious about illegal shark’s fin trading and one time his interest nearly cost him his life. While filming, The Big Fish Fight, Ramsay found himself in the hands of Costa Rican gangsters. An insider revealed, “After discovering one of their hideouts, where he spotted shark’s fins being left to dry on the rooftop, he was doused with gasoline, held at gunpoint and told to leave and never return.” In 2008, while filming a segment on puffin hunting in Iceland, Ramsay fell off an 85-foot cliff and landed in the ice water below. He was underwater for at least 45 seconds and later said, “I thought I was a goner.”
