Gordon Ramsay is thankful to be alive, and he credits not only all the doctors, nurses, and staff at a Connecticut hospital who took care of him, but also the helmet which he says saved his life.
Over the Fatherโs Day weekend, theย celebrityย chef took toย socialย mediaย to share a scaryย storyย with hisย fans. Even a week after the accident, it still had Ramsay shaken up.
โThis week I had a really bad accident while riding my bike in Connecticut,โ he wrote. โIโm doing ok and did not break any bones or suffer any major injuries but I am a bit bruised up looking like a purple potato.โ
Ramsay, who is an avid cycler, explained the importance of wearing a helmet no matter how โshort theย journeyย isโ or the fact that helmets cost money because theyโre โcrucial.โ

โIโm lucky to be standing here. Iโm inย pain. Itโs been a brutal week, and Iโm sort of getting through it,โ Ramsay said as he lifted his shirt toย revealย a massive bruise.
Theย Hellโsย Kitchenย star also includedย before and afterย photos from his accident.
Iโm so glad Gordon Ramsay is okay. Seeing his bruise and the aftermath of his helmet is an excellent reminder of the importance of making sure you always wear a helmet no matter what!
