"That guy"?
I'm offended on behalf of anyone who's ever cooked or worked in hospitality.
"That guy" is Gordon Ramsay, and he's pulling the firealarm, because the hotel is too filthy for people to actually be habiting it.
You know shit is bad when you're in restaurant/hotel and you see Gordon Ramsay.
Here's the full episode where the gif is from (not only is Gordon pretty good at cooking, he's great at utilising social media and YouTube as well)
VILE Hotel Forces Gordon To Pull Fire Alarm | Hotel Hell FULL EPISODE
Edit if you want the specific bit, here's the 30 seconds preceding the pulling of the alarm and then the alarm (idk if the timestamp works, he pulls the alarm at 28:08)
Oh wow, I know who he is but didn’t recognize him in the clip. I don’t seem to be able to recognize/associate people by how they look. Most people I’m close to think I’m lying or trying to be funny because I don’t know who popular people are, it would be nice to be able to recognize people.
Also, thank you for sharing the clip, I’m going to watch the full episode tonight.
Nah he has a sort of hunched gait and the picture is bad.
But yeah, you might have like a tiny bit of face blindness.
I very randomly get it as well in just specific contexts. Sometimes embarrassing when it's a friend/acquaintance.
Someone video calls you to say "hey look who I'm here with" and you're like "eeeh, I'm really bad at names" and then it gets awkward because I've known the person since I was a kid pretty much.
Just watched that video. Holy cow…I’m speechless, thank you for sharing. That seems like a really cool show.
It's always essentially just Ramsay having to psychotherapise someone, and it always begins with rubbing their face in it.
Usually they deny and lie, and a lot of the episodes are like that. Although it's not always the owner which it at issue nor similar problems, I'm just generalising.
There's the kitchen nightmares version, thats just the same but hotel hell is with hotel and kitchen.
There's quite a few full episodes up online free by him. Only like 10% at most (again, fully utilising the market). Idk if it's son or who runs the channels but they have some hilarious names for collections sometimes.
This is Kitchen Nightmares official channel:

Just this year he came out with a great new show, which sort of feels the same, but just much improved and streamlined: Gordon Ramsay's Secret Service(
