Can someone please tell me if the following really happened or am I going crazy....because no one I have talked to remembers this.... yet I do. They kept showing previews that someone was down in the kitchen and someone was yelling, "don't die on me" and then they showed an ambulance. Did it happen or have I been out in the sun too long?

You're not crazy Country, I heard it too. It was on the previews for later in the season.

I would have believed you Lexie! I've seen various clips and stories on them on "20-20" type shows for a few years now. And now you know where to access a video of them for proof!

Why in the heck would anyone deliberately breed animals with genetic defects for people's amusement? What's next? Dogs who have seizures? (they make funny faces, squeek and jerk!) That would be just as hilarious!! (sorry, that lady talking on the video browned me off and I didnt listen to the end) I figure Ramsay started to make fun of Eddie's size again. I was getting really tired of the nonstop "small jokes" and If Ramsay started up AGAIN I could see Eddie standing up for himself. Then would come the "f-off" comment.

Sunshyne, I read up on them and they weren't bred for people's amusement (although, I have to say, for some reason I find any breed of goats to be extremely funny. I swear, a trip to the petting zoo and one look at the goats can put me into hysterics. I have the same strange reaction, to a lesser degree, with geese). The fainting goat seemed to have originated from the early 1800s, and is a meat goat, as opposed to dairy. They weren't deliberately bred to faint. Ironic you should say what's next - about dogs. We already have dogs that have to be birthed by caesarian section and a tendency to hip problems(bulldogs), dogs with breathing problems (pugs), dogs that can't jump onto chairs and have pregnancy difficulties, back and joint problems (dachshunds), dogs that are susceptible to fevers and severe eye and skin problems (Sharpeis)...on so on. Dogs already have serious health problems because they've been bred in a way to amuse people. Sunshyne you might be on to something about what you said re Eddie. Maybe Ramsay said something so offensive and politically incorrect they cut it, along with Eddie's response to it.

I thought Gordo was brutal to Eddie. From what we saw on tv it was totally out of the blue with no reason.

Thanks Jodied! I'd read up on them too, and was going to come back and say something. In addition to them being meat goats, they were also kept by Sheperds, who mingled them in with their flock. If a predator attacked, the goats would faint, the predator would focus on the easier to catch goat, and the sheep would get away. Poor goats!

I first learned about the goats through the reality show Tuckerville. Tanya Tucker's son found a neighbor with those goats and he and a friend went to see them.

Oh my, it might be a patron who get's hurt? I hope they are just over reacting to a bad situation, remember last season someone got cut and then went to get it stitched, but came back, I was thinking it might be something like that. Yikes though.

Our guess is that Aaron totally faints and they rush him off. Not that anybody being ill is funny though, it's just that we can't figure out how in the world he ever got on the show in the first place.

IT sort of looked to me like Vinnie was the one who fainted. But, I suspect there's more to it than just someone fainting.

I'm surprised Aaron didn't faint or cry during the audition. I guess TPTB figured Aaron would make for great TV.

I thought it they made it seem like someone was giving some type of food they were allergic to, like a shellfish. Or that the allergen was dropped on the plate, then removed to put on the entree the guest was eating. Some people are so sensitive in their food allergies that even having it touch their plate will set them off.

OK...OK...how about somebody screws up on some food service. Aaron goes out to help the person out and goes into shock when he sees they're sick. Kind of like a friend of mine who got so "ill" during the delivery of their first child he almost spent more time in the hospital than his wife and baby.

I think Julia has more cooking skills than we have seen. She is very calm when given a chance to cook. I hope she stays a while.

Julia is my favorite of the girls. I loved that the girl that said 'she works at the waffle house' was the first one eliminated.

okay well I guess I should have researched Fainting goats LOL If a predator attacked, the goats would faint, the predator would focus on the easier to catch goat, and the sheep would get away As someone who has had goats and sheep I definitely can see the benefits of having a fainting goat. However, in our case it was always neighbor's dogs and they would kill for fun not food. Once we lost all the lambs and about half of the sheep....from two dogs. I saw injuries that haunt me to this day. But in the wild, I can see that this kind of goat would be handy LOL (LOL Jodied. Goats and Geese. They have so much character! we had 13 goats one year. they were so much fun when I was a kid) -------oh no---------I have nothing to add on topic. ooops

I like Julia as well; Joanna said that about her, but I chalk that up to her age. Poor Aaron, maybe he fainted and it's not as big as the previews make it, I hope it's not anyway.
