This story shocked me so much! While filming in Costa Rica, Gordon Ramsey and his film crew were doused in petrol and held at gun point!!:O
They were in Costa Rica looking into the shady world of Shark hunting when the incident happened. One of the gangs doused them in petrol and threatened them in guns! Local police advised them to leave the country as quickly as possible for their own safety! Gordon said:
"It's a multi-billion-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.'"How awfully scary! I bet they were petrified! We wonder what makes it to the show when it's aired?
