Gordon Ramsay is sharing the hell he went through following his catastrophic cycling accident this summer … and revealing what exactly caused the incident.
The professional chef opens up about his harrowing experience in a new interview with Men’s Health, in which he confirms he hit a “crater-like pothole,” launching him off his bicycle.
As Gordon put it … his bike spun 180 degrees around when he made contact with the giant rut.
Gordon remembers initially trying to rally after the spill … but realized he was in a dire state, as his helmet had cracked open — leaving him with blurry vision and covered in blood.
He added … “I honestly thought I was going to pass out.”
After calling his assistant, Justin Mandel, an ambulance arrived on the scene and brought him to a nearby hospital … where he underwent CT scans, which confirmed he hadn’t broken any bones.

Yet, Gordon wasn’t out of the woods … requiring daily lymphatic drainage treatments and physiotherapy for his wounds.
The whole ordeal was a nightmare for Gordon, who said he felt like “f***ing 95-year-old man,” needing his assistant’s help putting on underwear throughout his recovery.

GR tried to keep things positive for his followers … but we now know he was going through a hell of a time.
The biggest lesson to take away from this whole thing … wear your helmets, folks!!!
