"I thought I was a goner," he told the Sun. "I'm an extremely good swimmer, but I couldn't get to the surface. I was panicking and my lungs were filling with water."He was eventually pulled to safety by his TV crew. Ramsay was treated for a leg injury but was not seriously injured — though his wife, Tana, was "extremely p---ed off" when she learned of his misadventure.
