Anyway. The swearing is most definitely not an act. It's not easy working for him, (as I've read, at least) but those who are able to take it would never dream of working for anyone else. He really is that good.

He's definitely one of the most accomplished Chefs out there right now. To me he's right up there with Chef Anthony Bourdain, who I had the pleasure to meet when I was in New York. It's too bad that the original idea of Hell's Kitchen never went through, which would have seen both Bourdain and Ramsay running their own brigades.
