Gordon Ramsay Shares Poignant Message After Surviving Cycling Accident
Chef Credits Helmet for Saving His Life
Ramsay Urges Others to Wear Helmets
Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay has shared a poignant message about the importance of wearing a helmet after experiencing a severe cycling accident. In an Instagram post, Ramsay revealed his horrific bruised torso and thanked his helmet for saving his life.
"After a fall cycling I am incredibly grateful to everyone who looked after me," Ramsay wrote. "I am wearing all the correct gear and had I not been I could have been seriously injured. As it is I have road rash but am so thankful for my helmet which protected me against a far more serious injury."
Ramsay's accident serves as a reminder of the importance of wearing a helmet when cycling. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), helmets reduce the risk of head injury by up to 85%. Helmets also reduce the risk of severe brain injury by up to 69%.
Ramsay's message is particularly timely, as Father's Day weekend approaches. The chef has an extra reason to celebrate this year, as he is lucky to be alive after his accident. Ramsay is urging others to wear helmets to avoid a similar fate.
"I know I am extremely lucky to be alive and I am so grateful for the support I have received," Ramsay said. "Please, please wear a helmet when you cycle. It could save your life."
