Q: Here's a random question: it looks like Gordon Ramsay has really big feet -- is it true or is it just the angle of the cameras?
Amazingly enough, I know the answer to this. He does, in fact, have enormous feet.
This is public information because the L.A. Times asked him in an interview what his most useless talent is and he answered almost without hesitation: "My size 15 feet."
Ramsay is famous for his overstatements, and he didn't disappoint when describing his paws, which he referred to variously as "works of art," "machines" and "torpedoes."
