Celebrity Chef Gordon Ramsay recently shared a personal story on social media about a severe bicycle accident he was involved in, emphasizing the importance of wearing a helmet while cycling. In a heartfelt video, Ramsay, known for his passion for cycling and triathlons, expressed how the accident had a profound impact on him and acknowledged how fortunate he was to survive. He conveyed gratitude towards the trauma surgeons who helped him and urged his followers to always wear a helmet for safety.
Celebrity Chef Gordon Ramsay urged his followers on social media to wear a helmet when they are riding bicycles as he opened up about a recent serious accident that he was involved in where he could have been killed.
“I’d like to share a very important message with you all,” Ramsay said in a video. “You know how much I love cycling and triathlons and Ironman, etc. This week, unfortunately, I had a really bad accident. And it really shook me. And, obviously, I’m lucky to be here.”
“Now from those incredible trauma surgeons, doctors, nurses in the hospital that looked after me this week, they were amazing. But honestly, you’ve got to wear a helmet,” he continued. “I don’t care how short the journey is. I don’t care the fact that these helmets cost money, but they’re crucial. Even with the kids, a short journey, they’ve got to wear a helmet.”
He then lifted up the side of his shirt and showed a massive bruise that he sustained from the accident that covered the entire side of his torso.
“Now, I’m lucky to be standing here. I’m in pain,” he said. “It’s been a brutal week, and I’m sort of getting through it. But, I cannot tell you the importance of wearing a helmet.”
He concluded the video by once again urging: “Please, please, please, please wear a helmet. Because if I didn’t, honestly, I wouldn’t be here now.”
In the caption of the video posted on X, Ramsay said that the accident happened in Connecticut.
