Say what you will about Ramsay and his temper but I don't recall Ramsay ever throwing something at someone in a kitchen.
Ok, so almost sending beef to a veggie was possibly the worst mistake you could ever make in a kitchen but nothing excuses throwing something at someone in a kitchen. Imagine if someone had been close to boiling water and jumped knocking it over themselves.
Ramsay would have just swore alot and told the person to f-off. Extreme, but not dangerous. Throwing a plate to the ground and smashing other items to the ground had alot of potential for alot of nasty accidents.
In a kitchen people are close to hot stoves, hot pans of water, cutting with razor sharp knifes, opening ovens. If any one of those contestants had jumped or reacted suddenly to the crash of plates and such it could have resulted in a rather nasty injury.
Ok so im milking this for all its worth but still. Wouldn't see Ramsay or Oliver do that, nope.
