Our favorite fiery chef, Gordon Ramsay, just had a wheel-y wild adventure that’s one for the books! On Saturday (June 15), the 57-year-old king of culinary chaos took to Instagram to flaunt his latest accessory: a collection of gnarly bruises from a bike accident that will leave you in stitches (hopefully not literally).

In a dramatic video worthy of an Oscar, Gordon recounted his “epic wipeout” that happened earlier this week while he was pedaling through the picturesque (and evidently perilous) roads of Connecticut.

Fear not, Ramsay fans! Our beloved chef didn’t break any bones, but he did take a detour to the hospital to get patched up. And boy, does he have a story to tell.

“This accident really knocked the soufflé out of me,” Gordon quipped. “I mean, I’m lucky to be here, flinging insults at raw scallops and overcooked steaks. The trauma surgeons, doctors, nurses, and every miracle worker at the hospital—they were phenomenal. But seriously, people, wear a helmet! I don’t care if you’re just biking to the corner store for some parsley. Helmets are crucial. Even the kids need to strap on those brain buckets for the shortest trips.”

Now, if you thought that was the end of the tale, think again! Gordon, ever the showman, lifted his chef’s jacket to reveal a set of ribs that look like they’ve been through a tenderizing machine. “It’s been a brutal week, and I’m hurting like a lobster in a pot, but trust me on this: helmets save lives. Don’t be a donut, wear one.”

In the post’s caption, Gordon extended his heartfelt thanks to the wizards at Lawrence + Memorial Hospital in New London for their top-notch care, and gave a special shout-out to his helmet, which is now officially his best friend and life-saver.

So, next time you hop on a bike, channel your inner Ramsay, and don’t forget your helmet. After all, you wouldn’t want to end up as battered as his ribs!
