NiNES. Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 Ramsay held at gunpoint by gangsters Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay was doused in petrol and held at gunpoint as he tried to uncover the dark world of illegal shark fin trading for a new TV show. Related photos / videos Ramsay held at gunpoint by gangsters Enlarge photo Related content The Hell's Kitchen star was shooting scenes for Big Fish Fight when he confronted gangsters in Costa Rica who had slaughtered thousands of sharks to sell their sought-after fins. But Ramsay was left terrified when the gang kept their guns trained on him and his TV crew before throwing fuel over him. He was later advised by local police to flee the country for his own safety. The chef tells the Daily Mail, "It's a multibillion-dollar industry, completely unregulated. We traced some of the biggest culprits to Costa Rica. These gangs operate from places like forts, with barbed-wire and gun towers. "At one, I managed to shake off the people keeping us away, ran up some stairs to a rooftop and looked down to see thousands of fins, drying on rooftops for as far as the eye could see. When I got back downstairs, they tipped a barrel of petrol over me. "Back at the wharf, there were people pointing rifles at us to stop us filming. A van pulled up and these seedy characters made us stand against a wall. The police came and advised us to leave the country. They said, 'If you set one foot in there, they'll shoot you.'"

Flojo Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 'stay out my water or its manslaughter' lol but it's real talk. He must be gassed of the ratings he gets for shouting down these fragile restaurant owners, about he's going to Costa Rica to meddle in people's business.
