- Clips from 1999 Boiling Point documentary, which can be found on UA-cam. In some of these clips the kitchen was over 130 degrees Fahrenheit, so he gets a little annoyed.

I feel like Marco must have cursed Gordon at some point to have all of Marco's stress transferred onto him
I've met guys who were really abusive working in places like this, from what I can tell - it's because someone else did it to them so they think it's normal to do it to others.
Like students learn from their mentors, they'll take everything - including the bad.
@@nicholas1888 yep that's exactly what it is. In the Marines when you're in boot camp majority of the recruits are laid back normal people then as the years go by you see yourself become the aggressor and the one that's doing the yelling. I actually kind of resent it in myself all the people Ive literally screamed at for either being slow or not having the proper self awareness to realize how ones decisions effects dozens of others.
@@dimaknopf thats one side of it, but does it not press another level of achievement? another level of progress?
@@cladair77 It's a dirty fix in my experience. It'll never bring someone to that final level of personal excellence. It'll never make someone truly inspired and clearheaded. It gets people activated that aren't, but tends to cause rigid thinking about problems and brushing off deeper learning in the moment. Never been in the military, but I get why it's done there. Very few people are that committed to anything or know how to purposefully focus. Or grasp just how much another human being can depend on them. There isn't enough time or resources to bring every person through a lifelong journey like that. I know a lot of it is just training aggression and grit, that part makes a lot more sense in that context.
@@nicholas1888, I don’t see anything bad about how he is teaching. Everyone needs a kick in the arse once in a while if they want to succeed. That’s how one learns
He had just sold his house and invested all his money to open this place, trying to go out on his own for the first time. This was one of the most stressful times of his life.
I love Gordon and I respect him immensely. However The behaviour shown here is nothing short of abuse. I understand kitchens are high stress environments, criticism and discipline are essential and some chefs thrive under this kind of mentorship, but laying hands on your staff and using personal insults is too far.
I'm glad that he has grown and moved past this
fr like I wouldnt tolerate it, id be out the door working for him @@Ruthun92
@@Ruthun92this is honestly nothing compared to a couple of kitchens i worked at. i was once screamed at by a head chef at one of them for “chopping too slow” when i had thought i was cutting everything very fast and mind you this was an hour before opening. He called me a lazy bitch and proceeded to show me how much quicker I should be cutting shit. Almost any fine dining restaurant is gonna have a chef and sous chef w anger management issues, any restaurant position that involves working in the back of the house are NOT for the weak bc you will most likely be yelled at constantly and like that saying Gordon always uses, they will not blow smoke up your ass 💀
And this was the opening night. So much was going wrong, the AC broke and the kitchen got up to +60C.
@@Ruthun92be sure not to work in the food section at Walmart or any other store like that one then because they're even worse than Gordon Ramsay is in this video here. But I do have to agree with you.
Gordon's looked 50 for over 20 years.
That’s what working in a high class restaurant kitchen does to a man.
What cheffing does
You try working in a fast-paced kitchen and see if you age quickly, haha. I've done 21 years and it definitely fucks you.
He aged early and then stopped
@@robin9997 Exactly why I'm never touching a job like this lol. I can't fathom why anyone would willingly put themselves through this stress. Not worth the money.
3:11 The lamb sauce lore goes deeper than I thought. 👀
The origins of the missing lamb sauce.
Matpat Lore vid??????
This man has never had lamb sauce. He's only heard of it and has spent his life trying to find out where lamb sauce is kept.
Crazy how old he looks even though he’s only in his early 30s here. Stress makes you look old damn
He was balding, too. You can tell in certain shots his hair was thinning.
There is a comment that states Gordon has been through a lot of shit when they recorded this documentary.
Yeah I could tell he started looking younger from the mid-2010's, a literal Benjamin Button haha.
Yeah, stress is the fastest way to age someone.
I think he had pretty bad acne which contributed
You have to understand Ramsey's situation at this time. He trained in Paris without a word of French. His mentor in England was Marco Pierre White. He resigned from his position as Head Chef to go on his own. When this documentary was filmed, he was going for his his 3rd Michelin Star. He was been sued in court for millions at the time.
Also when the cameras weren't rolling he was incredibly helpful of his staff and took great care of them.
Wow now this was a comment I didnt know I needed to read
nah i disagree i think gordon shows his lack of class there i think you can be better
I have met Gordon & he is genially a great guy, but you gotta be in control at all times when u have as much at stake as he does!
Please don't try and defend him. He might be calmer and more likeable nowadays but it doesn't excuse him bullying and slapping around guys half his size like he is here. Bullies always have an "excuse"; doesn't change the fact they're bullies.
@@capitalcitygiant yeah man I feel like he definitely mellowed out a lot cause his life has turned around so much. We still have to understand that Gordon came from a very rough childhood. He might lack that politeness in him and can get very aggressive. But I think in the end he’s not a bad person. This is just based off what I know on him
2:25 him calling someone a jerk is somehow so much more of an insult than if he swore his head off...like you're not even worthy of being insulted properly
I had the privilege to go to one of Gordon’s restaurants and tried his signature dish, beef Wellington….that was two years ago, I still remember the taste…totally not overrated. Gordon and Marco are the real deal.
Same here, we went to Bread Street Kitchen London for a special lunch on a Europe trip in 2019 and I often think about how good the Beef Wellington was, and the service too!
Anyone who thinks he's overrated has absolutely no idea what they're talking about.
Wow!!! Very well said
Had his beef wellington too, it was delicious. Other entree was a ribeye, totally disappointed in that.
Same. Wagyu sliders,Wellington with potato purée.
I expected it to be OK and to pay a couple hundred bucks. I still spend a couple hundred but I’ve never been to a restaurant with as tender and tasty meat, such a creamy purée and the sliders were like better cheesesteaks and I’m from philly
My dad was a chef, his one condition for teaching me how to cook was that I never become a chef myself lol.
same😂
almost every chef ive worked with in my life has also told me, "I dont know why i chose this as a career" at some point LMAO
@@wyattdetherow6853simple, the passion for the craft at the end of the day
Been cooking for 20 years now I tell my kids the same thing
my step dad said the same. now im an apprentice...
He was paying them 600~ pounds a week at the time and this was late 80's/90's. That was a REALLY good amount of money. He's tough but when you're getting paid that much, you should at least try.
It was 1999 boiling point - maybe filmed late 98’. This was the opening months of RGR, post-Aubergine. His first all-in venture, hence the stress levels. Late 80’s and early 90’s he would have still been at Harvey’s under Marco.
£600 per week, in London, in 1999 wouldn't have been great wages.
@@johntgwthat’s equivalent to about £1,100p/w today. That’s a lot
not for london, its expensive as fuck, basically all the bankers there live off mommy and daddy @@iDrumGod
You kidding? That’s bloody good money for cooks back in the late 90s. Gordon was in such a high stress zone at this point in his career basically threw all his eggs in one basket and thankfully it paid off!
Gordon: "You need to make your staff feel relaxed and composed."
Also Gordon: *angry, profanity-laced tirade*
3:59 NAH THATS FOUL ASF💀
Okay snowflake
@@Guldfisken90 lmao, okay hardman
that was tom the jellybean
@@Guldfisken90 hes a hardened gamer
I died! LOL
Some of those people he was shouting at are some of the best chefs in the UK now.
Yep,
It’s pretty crazy to think about
And who are they now?
@@JJsiN84
Who are these chefs?
As someone who worked 10 years in the Hotel Industry, I can only attest, that Gordon is not even nearly a harsh chef. Thats nothing. hes actually being pretty considerate and friendly. Ive seen people being thrown with everything imaginable, beaten malicious intent, Iv e even had a sous chef lock an apprentice in the freezer. Kitchens are wild.
It sounds so made up , its crazy how true this is
@@clalam5241 Kitchen management is a profession often chosen by those with psychopathic traits due to them being stress immune, desire for power over others, and their desire to control the entire dynamic of a situation. Spoken as someone who has experience with this.
@@dakotakennedy2933 sounds like most CEOs
@@RibiRoo absolutely, but everyone knows that already.
A friend of mine who worked in a Michelin starred restaurant in London had a carving knife put to his throat by a coked-up chef once for talking back.
this is why i gave up my 20 year career as a chef and became a business banker
Still a moneygrubber but you get to treat the poor like shit now.
@@davidsmock8235 turns out working in a bank is as soulless as it sounds. Here I am back in the kitchen
@@CraigWedd I honestly don't know what got into me. My comment was out of line. I apologize. I'm sorry it wasn't rewarding. I hope you're having a better time now.
@@davidsmock8235 all good mate, we are chefs, we got that temper haha
@@CraigWedd if you take a grilled cheese that's fresh and pull the bread slices apart you get two very delicious slices of cheesebread but I never see it on any menus
Only people who work in F&B knows how it really feels.
Military is comparable with levels of stress
@@pecoliky8793 oh military has to be another level of mentality. life and death is no joke.
@@pecoliky8793 Probably can't compare life & death to medium rare & well done
Frankie and Bennys?
@@pecoliky8793Yes I feel like I've aged 20 years just after 5 in the military 😂 the stakes are very high, simple mistakes are not allowed
He got so angry they even cut out the bleeps.
when he called him wombat, i almost died
I worked as an iron worker in Chicago for a little while. There were at least 5 Gordon Ramsay's on each job site. One of the reasons I'm not doing iron work for a living now😂
That ending was awesome. I genuinely thank you for this compilation of Early Gordon Ramsay
Appreciate that, comments like these make my day
@@teemurph Content like this matters. The usual egotistical content however from those "influencers" make me cringe to death.
it's all clips from boiling point, you can watch on youtube
1:02 - Gordon with his wife 😂
ur a legend for this. boiling point is one of the best docs ever made
It's far more efficient to cut back on the persistent bullying and do your job as a chef. Yes, on the spot corrections and verbal reprimand can be necessary, but make your point, make it quickly, then take your foot off their throat so everyone can get back to work. Just 30 seconds of bullying, repeated dozens and dozens and dozens of times each shift adds up to a massive lost in productivity of the Chef, of the person being yelled at, and of the lost focus of the entire crew who is within earshot of the berating.
Yeah this type of behaviour is just counterproductive bullying. There are far better ways to handle it. Fact is - these are people he CHOSE to employ, it's not some Hell's Kitchen Nightmare scenario.
Totally agree, especially 11:33 that is just unacceptable, the fact you spend your personal 1.3 million pound and trying to catch a michellin star isn't even an excuse for this kind of bollocks behaviour. But he did say he regrets treating his staff like this, so it's good.
@@sirdrs I would much rather microwave salad 💀
Yeah, multipul Michelin star winning chef Gordon Ramsay needs advice from you
@Caleb Have you ever worked in a professional kitchen?
There is something so cathartic about watching Gordon call someone fat who is skinnier than him. Its so funny.
Or him calling someone smaller big boy
Gordon is almost certainly more fit than you. He’s done Ironman races
@@maxivy ? But he was indeed fatter than the guy he called fat. Fat men can be fitter than a skinny smoker for example.
LOL. What the heck does that have to do with his comment? @@maxivy
strongest men on earth are indeed 'fat', no six pack, the padding is necessary. Arnold Schwarzenegger was a bodybuilder, not a strongman, and was rated on the asthetics and muscle not the strength. But yeah the guy is still not fat in comparison to gordon@@maxivy
Thank you for sharing these, I've never been into top chefs, feeling it's pretentious, and overpriced, however now, I'm obsessed! Marco, and Gordon are a must see, I'm lucky to have found your channel. Liked/subscribed.
This world and these chefs are fascinating, I'm working on a documentary about Marco, can't wait til it's done. Thanks for the comment:)
People like you are the reason why testosterone levels of males are reducing year by year...
This is how kitchens actually operate, any shows trying to mimic it are just edited for entertainment. Actual cooking nobody stops to look in awe or fuck around, you fuck up you just move on and try to redo asap.
@@wujitsu77uusi One of the best comments I've seen so far. You know stuff dude.
believe me. Asian chef more brutal than him :')
So no one hears him tell hey Spic 😂😂😂😂😂 7:25
No one gonna talk about how s**t this audio is?!?
It's a documentary from 1998
3:58 Oh god no
I bet you Gordon knew Tom was the type to not do anything about someone slapping him on his bald head like that. That's just utter disrespect on Ramsay's part.
You’re the type to not do anything about it.
It was mad funny tho
@@VishusVenom you're the type that's never been punched for saying disrespectful shit
It's so unusual to have a single camera film the whole thing. No jump cuts, nearly raw footage.
thanks so much for this 12 minute upload, i've only seen the short version. i love Gordon and it's amazing to see his work ethic at such a young age. I really look up to him
as a veteran of the indsutry, this video helps me fall asleep at night lol
That drinking water in front of costumers is real shit I got yelled for doing that just yesterday 🤦♂️
It's the dumbest shit ever, yet seems to be such a commonly held idea in kitchens.
Like most shifts are like 6 hours plus in restaurants normally hitting 8 to 10, do they just expect the staff to not drink the entire time besides breaks.
Like fuck the customers if they have a problem with me hydrating myself they can go fuck off to another restaurant
From 5:50 to 6:00 is, quite possibly, the funniest gordon reaction. The stare.
From 0:58 to 1:10 is another funny reaction from Gordon
Gordon looks like after Emperor Palpatine turned into Darth Sidious (espeically in that close up shot of him when he's swearing)
1:29 "Concentrate, you!" 😂
Best workout playlist ever
"backstory: this is his debut night of his first restaurant and the AC fan belt broke and it couldn't be fixed the same night. He had a huge gamble and this night was one of the most important in his life" - @stogieconsumer5948 he commented this to another video with the same clip of Gordon going berserk
3:11 he sounds eerily like marco here
7:23 hold up what?
You heard it right lmao
Lmao yeah he called a Hispanic a spic. It’s a wonder that he hasn’t been cancelled for something done in his past
Hahahahaha
He's gotten his temper from his dad... his dad was an abusive bully, I think we are looking at and hearing Ramsays Dad resonate through him in his kitchen when he is under pressure he literally morphs into his father, I bet his dad spoke to him like this as a child. Its astonishing and also purely heartbreaking..
Like in Burger Kitchen how Alan Saffron acted like he did because of his Dad, and he treated Daniel the same way.
Gordon’s father was vile and abusive, and tried to kill him at one point.
@@ronatopaz2793what the hell??
Have you ever seen Marco? He just got it from him.
But Gordon never did that with his children. All the screams to his staff were common sense.
Fun fact. Ramsay is actually Scottish. This is how all Scotsmen act.
Ignorant comment & worthy of a reply. My father & all male family members are all born & live in Scotland. All hard core work ethic in common. GR moved to England when he was 11 yrs old? ethic remained & business required it. That's universal. You must be weak.
This was his joint, his kitchen, his money. All the risk is his and they are just on the payroll. He realizes nobody in there cares as much as he does so he has to push them. The expression 'if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen' has never applied better. It's inspirational to see his relentless perfectionism and drive.
*_"IT'S RAW!!"_*
Not sure what the fuck is going on with the audio here. Sounds almost out of phase or something. Can't hear a word of what's going on. Might be worth exporting again
it's out of phase
is audio corrupted on my Samsung or is this for everyone
He looks strung out or highly, highly stressed. No sleep.
I don't know why the audio fucks up when I use my cellphone speaker.
I lost it when he slapped the bald headed dude on top of the head 😂
He has calmed down a bit since he went to the States.
Gordon Ramsey “you silly billy! You’re so silly that I don’t even understand you. You’re just a silly silly billy! Silly billy! Silly silly billy! So so so so silly silly billy!”
He could be so mean
You sound like your 3 years old tf
I Could watch these all day
This isnt the first footage, the first footage was when an undercover journalist went to work for a day at 'Aubergine', a restaurant that gordon was head chef of before he got his own place Hospital road,chelsea (the place in this video).
The journalist then submitted his hidden camera footage to a show called 'britains worst bosses". That was the first footage of gordon going crazy in the kitchen. Maybe a year or more before this.
the ultimate nightmare boss
I'll be honest. I'm surprised there hasn't been a story that came out where a chef snapped and threw hands with Gordon.
Type “gordon ramsay amanda barrie”.
Jeff from hells kitchen season 1(allegedly) attempted and got his ankle messed up, Joseph from season 6 also attempted (and was actually filmed lol)
The dude that got popped on the head, while Gordon was on the phone. Dude looked up like, oh hey
This is the first time I hear the word "dreamer" as a curse
Gordon had a great teacher.
amazing thumbnail
I enjoyed your endings😂 what do you study bro?
Thanks lmao I don't study, I'm a business major
Gordon is probably tired and taking it out on the staff. Abusing his position, I feel, though. Getting physical with staff is out of order.
I wonder if really nobody punched him in his face after all that?
If he wasn't such a beloved legend, there'd be much less of this "he's probably tired" talk.
@@Halterin11 If? Comment is irrelevant.
@@thegee001ify ?????
Gordon was a savage!! I appreciate the fact that he was and still is a perfectionist
He's a Christian
I can see that Gordon was going through a lot at this point and all his eggs were in one basket, thankfully it paid off in the end. There’s a good spirit and passion behind the cursing and the pressure he’s putting to his cooks, in a weird way it’s motivating… only Gordon can pull something off like that. He wants his cooks to be top tier and you can see he’s investing a lot of his time and energy in mentoring them to be better if they’re serious about their culinary career.
The sound was completely distorted until the last 10 secs of this vide. I can imagine though what jems he spoke
*_"YOU DONKEY!!"_*
Nahh the “hey spic” was wild 💀😭
The thumbnail 😂
The sound quality is so weird sounds more normal in portrait in landscape it's trippy on the ears
Fairness is not treating everyone equally as bad.
Very bad energy for serving food. Even a panacotta would be blown away by these words
Clearly, though Gordon has multiple successful restaurants and some men from these clips are now some extremely popular chefs in the UK 😂
I mean there’s being a hard boss and being plain abusive. Wish there was one where someone just straight up lamped him.
"I'm not scared" -THE WORDS OF A SCARED MAN
Is the sound corrupted or something. I only heard a strange quiet noise through 90% of it
3:59 the slap on the head 😂😂😂
No idea how treating your staff like that will make them work better. If anything it's distracting and demoralizing
and that energy bleeds into the food
Chef work is pressure. And if you can't handle pressure, you shouldn't work in the kitchen
@@nationrider767 you'd think the answer to that would be to alleviate pressure not create more pressure
@@powerplayer75 what? If a cook makes a mistake during service, one that can potentially have lasting consequences, then action is needed. You have to remember that back in the day chef ramsay served at a very high level, you'd have to be very rich to even eat the food he served, so the expectations of working well under pressure are clear. Remember that there is money and reputation on the line.
@@powerplayer75 head chefs loosing their shit in these types of restaurants are very common. I work in a kitchen myself and see all sorts of shit.
2:45 Hey you, young man, hey big boy!
3:58 I laughed at this part here when he just smack the dudes head 😂
Imagine this getting released now!
Gordon:
"If I catch anyone crying then you all can f*** off out of here! Crying only happens by choice!"
Channeling his inner MPW
I would've been fired on the spot. Gordon wouldn't have been talking to me like that. Either we would've been arguing back and forth, or I would've just walked out.
No wonder he's stressing when he calls him Gordon and not chef.
“Do you want it fking faxed?” HAHAHA
Look, I get he's under a lot of stress but 10:43 was exceptionally fucked up and uncalled for. You should never physically abuse your staff.
Could have been worse.
that’s not rly physical abuse
@AD4REAL_ It is abuse
Blah blah blah then make sure you dont work in the kitchen
@@dantesparda4493 Twuntish handwaving, as per.
Ramsay recognized early-on that the 'mean guy' persona added to his allure, so he leaned into it.
People want the luxury cake but don’t want to know how it’s made.
Imagine developing a passion for food, then discovering top chefs will bully you constantly. Is it really worth it?
They only "bully" you, if you don't do your job
@@merlin4306 Cobblers.
@@merlin4306 Nah, they bully you because they can, and they don't get enough any stress outlet.
Look at the late Marco Pierre White.
All he needs is to LOOK at you to understand you fucked up.
That's class.
Gordon, on the other hand, is a type of guy that dishes it out, but once Jamie Oliver makes a joke about his wife miscarriage and he goes all whiny like a big fucking crybaby.
keep crying
“Bully” lol. That’s not bullying bud.
3:58 i thought he hit a baby for 1 minute

It's easy to relate but when you are on the receiving end it's awful..
It’s honestly amazing how he wasn’t sparked out. Anyone speaks to me like that. Especially the repeated bullying they’d be getting chinned.
And you'd be going to prison
I can see Gordon's stressed, but he needs to watch it on the prodding/pushing. People could have gotten legal about that, not to mention physical.

Just so people know, this is not common place in 99.9% of kitchens. Some people defend his actions because it’s Gordon Ramsay but he acted like a bully and got away with it because he hired a load of kids half his size. I’ve been a chef for 15 years and been a head chef for 5 and would never treat my chefs like this or accept anyone bullying me this, getting physical. The fact no one lamped him is remarkable!
The Gordon fanboys will disagree with you no matter what..
People who worked in a Ramsay kitchen gained so much pretige to their name, they prove they can take the heat and make good food. That's why people took the shit, it's amazing for their career. This is the same across a lot of different industries, people serve under renown tough mentors because it's going to put them much further ahead than working in some shithole highstreet kitchen that's one bad friday away from closure.
@@YesSirPhil exactly. Anyone else they would be calling an abusive POS
Okay, buddy. I don't doubt your experience as a chef or a head chef but I assume that you haven't ran a restaurant as a head chef, while also going for your third Michelin star. Imagine it being your life-long dream and someone in the kitchen is repeatedly making mistakes which could cost the entire effort. It sucks but pressure makes diamonds. Or it makes you want to un-alive yourself, lol.
@LA Raine, Well each chef has their own way of running a kitchen and while not everyone has to like or agree with Gordon's methods, it was those methods that him and people under him was able to become successful.
