Bobsledding is crazy dangerous. For a bunch of dudes who had probably never seen snow before to get inside a bobsled with only a little practice and a lot of bad luck is still one of the best, gusiest, most bad ass Olympic stories I've ever heard
When he speaks of walking down the ice, having his head down in defeat, and then hearing someone start clapping, and then cheers erupting... I'm not crying your're crying. But I'm also crying.
It was cool. There was a cold snap so a lot of events were delayed so they held a bunch in one day and everyone who had tickets to on of the events got to see everything that went on that day. So 90 m ski jump, ariels, 4 man bobsled, nortic combined. So we got to see Eddie the eagle as well
@@locnar777 wow, you were really lucky! See so many venues. Ski jumping and sliding were in Calgary itself but the skiing events were at Mt Allen at Nakiska in Kananaskis and Canmore Nordic Centre .Canmore. I’m jealous
I remember watching these guys and I remember the mood of the times and they made Bobsledding a must see event. Those guys rocked the Olympics that year and everyone wanted to know about these guys! I smiled watching this remembering back .... I am happy to see them back again! I have been an Olympic junky since I was a kid and these guys I will never forget- they put a smile on your face no matter what..
Who else is watching this in 2022? What a great legacy left by the 1988 team. In this year's Olympics, Jamaica qualified 3 bobsled teams and 1 skier. Amazing!!!!
The real "Derice" is more likable than the fake one from the movie. He's sarcastic, I like it. "I like the movie reason more, it was a mechanical error not human." LOL.
A real inspiring underdog story. They may not have medalled but they were the ones everyone was watching and who captured our hearts for decades to come. At the end of the day, their spirit is what it's all about, and the approach to life we should all aspire to.
I remember the Jamacan bobsled team, Eddie the Eagle, Kip Keeno, and many others! They are my Olympic hero's because they embody the Olympic Spirit. They will never be forgotten because of their courage and belief in that Spirit.
Jamaica....I hope you win the future Olympics.....amazing true story and loved the movie Cool Runnings. Inspirational and hilarious. What an incredible legacy you have left.
They were the best ❤️ I don't care if they weren't professionals. They put their all into what they believed in. They made the whole world laugh We didn't laugh "AT THEM " we laughed WITH Them ❤️🇺🇸❤️
The Jamaicans were a Cherished Gift brought to our Calgary Olympics. They never had a Walk of Shame after that crash, we are so Grateful you are okay. Everyone remembers that Olympics well, we miss you Jamaica.
At 5:56 the guy say's " A new tourist attraction outside Montego Bay "......what the fuck ???? It's Mystic Mountain, and is 90 minutes from Montego Bay, LOL !!!! It's 3 minutes from downtown Ocho Rios, why not say OCHO RIOS !!!
I am somebody that has always loved Jamaica. I happened to have been living in Calgary during the Olympics. They were the team I was rooting for. Jamaica and Fast Freddy on the ski jumping made the 88 Olympics something special
I believe the phrase _docu-drama_ would be more accurate, with a healthy spritzing of Hollywood's standard "reality is boring so we're gonna throw a bunch of stuff in to get butts into seats and no one will know the difference" mixed in.
Just imagine if they had finished that run. They might've set a olympic record. Its nice to know though that jamaica is still doing that event and Nigeria even joined bobsledding in the olympics.
I'm just gonna say it. There is totally possiblity for another Jamaican bobsled team movie. Starting with the drivers grandchild watching cool runnings, and asking "was that how it was like for you grandad"?, "No child, it was much different to us"
I hope Jamaica continues with it's bobsledding. I absolutely love the film cool runnings and wish the Jamaican bobsled team all the best for the future. Well done guys.
Olympics are weird, it’s so... so hard to get a medal, years and years of perfect training, but if have lack of discipline and do ridicule, they applaud you like a hero.
this video was published in 2012 and she said the last time the Olympics were in canada was in 1988 but actually it was 2010 tell me if you find it weird as well :)

It's somewhat accurate, but it shows us a bunch of messages. NEVER GIVE UP. Winning is nice but you don't need to win to earn respect from your competitors.
In real facts they crashed because of the driver's mistake, not the old bobsled like in the film, but that doesn't make them less respectable and proud athletes

For a country with no ice primitive training equipment they should get a medal for just qualifying for the olympics
DANG SKIPPY
Sanka, ya dead mon?
g00gle minus ya mon
Duroy steadman they did
When he speaks of walking down the ice, having his head down in defeat, and then hearing someone start clapping, and then cheers erupting...
I'm not crying your're crying. But I'm also crying.
ok chris bell
they were great to see in person, i was at canada olympic park the day of the crash, and cheered.
Wow you where there. That’s amazing. Tell me how was it and the experience.

Did they do the slow clap like in the movie 😆

Win or lose, ya can't beat the Jamaican attitude!!!! A gold medal should be awarded to them for that alone! Cool runnings, mon!
A real inspiring underdog story. They may not have medalled but they were the ones everyone was watching and who captured our hearts for decades to come. At the end of the day, their spirit is what it's all about, and the approach to life we should all aspire to.
This is the stuff of legends, for centuries people will be talking about the Jamaican bobsled team.
I worked on the 88 Olympics, we loved the Jamaican Bobsled Team ! They were what the spirit of the Olympics was all about.
Us Aussies always root for the underdogs - it's just who we are - and this is bloody legendary. Good work.
I remember the Jamacan bobsled team, Eddie the Eagle, Kip Keeno, and many others! They are my Olympic hero's because they embody the Olympic Spirit. They will never be forgotten because of their courage and belief in that Spirit.
Jamaica....I hope you win the future Olympics.....amazing true story and loved the movie Cool Runnings. Inspirational and hilarious. What an incredible legacy you have left.
polish translation of "Cool Runnings" is the best !!!: "Reggae on Ice"
I mean that's like making a movie about the Italian bobsled team and calling it "meatballs on ice". Kind of an out of context joke if you ask me.
Ha! :)
The Czech one is great too "Coconuts on Ice".
In Brazil is Jamaica Under Zero
In Colombia was also Jamaica Under Zero (Jamaica Bajo Cero). I love this movie!
I see pride
I see power
I see a bad ass moda, who don't take no crap off nobody!
+Llyr Watkins junior bevil!!!
David Lazcano I see a badass muda, who don't take no crap off of nobody!
Now say It again!!
What do you see In yourself?!?!
now they need 80k to go to sochi. I would love to see the Jamaican bobsled team again.
/r/dogecoin helped make that happen :)
I know, I am glad. "feel the rhythm. Feel the ride. Come on now, It's bobsled time! COOL RUNNINGS!!!"
They did it!
yeah. but when they did their ran. they came dead last. At Least it was good watching them. Good to see something different.
Would love for the Jamaican team to metal In next winter Olympics.
I was 26 when they competed. It was a very big deal at the time. Really brought more fame to the bobsled sport in general.
The spirit of the underdog! excellent story about merely going the distance.
"your bones don't break in a bobsled....... they shatter. WHO WANTS IN?!"
Ohio Against The World *everyone is gone*

Well, they made it. They aren't doing so well, but they made it.
dragongem124 look at the cheers they got from the crowd everytime they run
You can't knockout Mike Tyson unless you step in the ring first
They were the best ❤️ I don't care if they weren't professionals. They put their all into what they believed in. They made the whole world laugh We didn't laugh "AT THEM " we laughed WITH Them ❤️🇺🇸❤️
i almost started crying when he started talking about the clapping
The Jamaicans were a Cherished Gift brought to our Calgary Olympics.
They never had a Walk of Shame after that crash, we are so Grateful you are okay. Everyone remembers that Olympics well, we miss you Jamaica.
What great attitudes.
30 people can't feel the rhythm
33* I feel da rhythm doe, man
Amanda Nappier "Feel da rhythm, feel da rhyme, don't give up, it's bobsleigh time"
Amanda Nappier we're not talking about the damn Swiss.
Lol
Now it's 80
thank you for posting this. I've a big fan of the movie since I was a kid, now at the age of 21 and learning about the real story is really cool!
At 5:56 the guy say's " A new tourist attraction outside Montego Bay "......what the fuck ???? It's Mystic Mountain, and is 90 minutes from Montego Bay, LOL !!!! It's 3 minutes from downtown Ocho Rios, why not say OCHO RIOS !!!
I am somebody that has always loved Jamaica. I happened to have been living in Calgary during the Olympics. They were the team I was rooting for. Jamaica and Fast Freddy on the ski jumping made the 88 Olympics something special
That museum is in Ocho Rios, not Montego Bay, which is about 3 hours west of Mystic Mountain.
I am. Proud to be born in Jamaica
We are not the Swiss - now Swiss foot. I see Dignity! I loved this in 1988 and I love it now!
fantastic film and a great doc to see where it all began,,brilliant to watch
The film was simply but very moving.
The message about determination however, timeless!
You got to love these guys! Respect to them and coach
I have been sliding in the same period together with this team.. Great !
Wait, wait...so the movie "Cool Runnings" WASN'T a documentary?
It actually is a documentary!
I believe the phrase _docu-drama_ would be more accurate, with a healthy spritzing of Hollywood's standard "reality is boring so we're gonna throw a bunch of stuff in to get butts into seats and no one will know the difference" mixed in.
*based on a true story*
As a matter of fact there is no "John Candy" character
Tears...almost can't write... Jamaican heart, Jamaican speed. Get back to the olympics, brethren!
Winners in my book.
I'm wishing them luck in Sochi!
Just imagine if they had finished that run. They might've set a olympic record.
Its nice to know though that jamaica is still doing that event and Nigeria even joined bobsledding in the olympics.
I love the movie! I just love the hole history and story about these guys!
Nuff people say they know them can't believe. Jamaica we have a bobsled team
The fact people started clapping even they didn't finish... this is what olympics are about.
hey bro what shaking, a was a funny movie a really was , I love it ,Jamaica is beautiful 👍💐💐💐💐 History movie👍🏆
for the first time in 24 years, Jamaica has a bobsled team again!
Cool Runnings makes me smile :) What a great story!
I ain't kissin' no egg.
Thanks thats a better story in real life then the movie...
I'm just gonna say it.
There is totally possiblity for another Jamaican bobsled team movie.
Starting with the drivers grandchild watching cool runnings, and asking "was that how it was like for you grandad"?, "No child, it was much different to us"
I will be cheering for Jamaica and Kenya this Winter Olympics.
I hope Jamaica continues with it's bobsledding. I absolutely love the film cool runnings and wish the Jamaican bobsled team all the best for the future. Well done guys.
Feel the rhythm feel the rhyme, come on Jamaica it's bobsled time!
One of my favorite movies
Wow John Candy passed away just few months after the movie was released. I watched the movie again. In spanish it was called jamaica below 0.
Great Job Master Tal and Senor Chris !

So proud to be Jamaican. :)
Peace be The Journey - Jamaican Bobsleigh? Yeah man.

And Dogecoin just got this year's team to the Russian Olympics :) much rhythm, many ride, wow.
***** 'only'? The currency is only 6 weeks old, I'd say that's pretty impressive
Olympics are weird, it’s so... so hard to get a medal, years and years of perfect training, but if have lack of discipline and do ridicule, they applaud you like a hero.
“He’s one of the best bobsledders in the world”.
“Yeah and he’s also one of the biggest assholes in the world too”.
We will welcome you to our Island anytime. Don't know if you have since made the trip but do come. Irie
Great piece!
what are you smoking sanka, ain t smoke man im breathing ..
Proud Jamaican :-)
Anyone know the name of the song at 0:31 ? :)
this video was published in 2012 and she said the last time the Olympics were in canada was in 1988 but actually it was 2010
tell me if you find it weird as well :)
Easily in the top 10 underdog stories.
im just proud to be part jamaican (gran is jamaican)
Lewison Busu who cares
Das geht über eure Vorstellungskraft, Jamaika hat ne Bobmannschaft 😆
the last time the olympics were in canada were 2010 vancouver at the uploading of this video
Hopefully Calgary Host winter olympics in 2026, and Jamaicas bobsled team better be there!
2026 is in Italy. Maybe 2030
this was put on youtube on my birthday :D

The true story is better than the fake story by Disney. Time for a 2019 reboot.
It's somewhat accurate, but it shows us a bunch of messages. NEVER GIVE UP. Winning is nice but you don't need to win to earn respect from your competitors.
Please can I come to Jamaica and have a beer with you guys!
Awesome on you Canada ❤❤❤
Coo Runnings, part 2… 2022 !!!
“Sanka you dead ?.” “Ya mon.”
In real facts they crashed because of the driver's mistake, not the old bobsled like in the film, but that doesn't make them less respectable and proud athletes
Its crazy to think that theres one random person out there who clapped is the reason for so much. Funny how these things work out sometimes.
The true Olympic spirit
Yaaaaaaaaa mon
i'm sooo proud to be jamaican
Is the two young people riding that bobsled thing the two man team going this year?
idk but one sure looks like him!
I was born. In. Jamaica
The 66 people who don't like this clip don't have no Jamaican blood running through them...kmt
Great 👍
yeah ok roy official
