Gordon Ramsay strikes again...?

[Cecil Terwilliger]

An American chef who was told by Gordon Ramsay on his Kitchen Nightmares television show that his restaurant would "swim down the ——- Hudson" has died after throwing himself into the river.

Joseph Cerniglia, a 39-year-old father of three, jumped from the George Washington Bridge into the Hudson which separates New York and New Jersey.

He appears to be the second chef to have committed suicide after appearing on one of Ramsay's programs, in which the British chef delivers robust and expletive-filled judgments on restaurants and cooks.

Ok that's weird. Dude even killed himself in the same way Ramsay described his restaurant.

Crazy. It sucks to have someone who is popular enough to basicly bankrupt your life's dream/finances on national television. But you also know who you're dealing with when you sign up.

I don't get this post. Gordon Ramsey isn't going around Bankrupting people, the people themselves are all bankrupt and Ramsay goes in and tries to salvage a terrible restaurant and he usually gets it restored (up to date).

He just tells it like it is, but with a ton of cussing.

I read another article that said the restaurant in question was packed every night since Kitchen Nightmares.

I guess he was so accustomed to failure, when his business started to be successful he offed himself.

But hmmm... an Italian restaurant in New Jersey... and now the guy is swimming with the fishes after not paying his huge debts.

Normally the cops would check the underwear, if it had a little extra 'bait' in there it would indicate someone went over against their will, but this is Jersey so the rivers have enough sewage floating in them to make this a less reliable test.
