@simpson1783 Well thanks for your information. nice to hear that jamaica did win ultimately a gold medal. makes a caribean girl from another small island (although not jamaican) proud.
At one hand i understand that it can be a disappointment to read this information and come to learn that the film is not a 100% according to the reality. At the other hand i find it nice how jamaica was made proud in those olympics of '88 and also the film.
@ginarela1 to complete my comment, i find that jamaica and the bobsled team '88 was honoured by the movie cool runnings.
and although they didn't carry the sled, they WALKED on their own(!) to the finish line, they were not carried. and that is very important in the games: one way or the other, you MUST finish your race on your own otherwise your race will be disqualified. That's the main point here.
I love how they in the movie carry the sled across the finish line, and therefore finish the race, even with the worst time in the history of bob sled. So sad to find out now, that they didn´t do that in real life. Almost sad I went here and saw it :(
@mizonkey007 I know mannn, wtf.....the end where they carry the sled is one of my favorite parts, this video actually messes the movie up for me. F-ckin Hollywood.....
What such adacious pride Jamaicans had back then. You guys sure did make you contry proud. Nowadays some a few Jamaicans have bo shame or self respect about them. Smh I know some of you Jamaicans can agree with me.

@valld95 yes, the crash you see in the film is the real one without the commentary then it switches to the actors when they take their helmets off ! !
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Jamaican team= FAIL. Falling medic= FAIL. John 3:16 guy= FAIL. Pissed off Jamaican bobsled team guy who took off his helmet all pissed off after the run= FAIL. Movie producer who didn't know they would invent wikipedia later= EPIC FAIL. LoL
I am watching Cool Runnings right now on HBO. Even though they walked with their sled to the finish instead of carrying it like in the film, it was still one of the true powerful moments in Olympic history.
Mos people say you know they cant believe... Jamaica we have a bobsled team. Wish a Jamaican team would still compete. Interesting to see the real team in the real incident.
@Voices72 - I gotta agree with mrvictoria, you are kink of a wanker. If you think about it, most movies are bases on true events (famous events or not). Just like my story... When I was in the Navy, I DID spot give "The Bird" to a soviet Mig-28 pilot whilst... inverted in my F-14 "Tomcat". But my call sign was "Tombstone" not "Maverick."
And YOU'RE one to talk, Voices72! I seem to remember a movie called "The Elephant Man" based off of your life. But they seemed to have left out all of the ca
see... this is what really annoys me about films. They make a film about something that really happened and glamourise it but faking the end and the reason they crashed.
It wasn't a loose bolt like the film portrayed, it was a misjudged corner.
They didnt carry the sled over the finish line to a slow clap by a German sledder, they walked with it, probably bruised and shaken up to hell.
At least have the decency to get the story half right.
You have to respect these people.. Noone propably went trough all this crap to even be able to participate in the olympics and before they crashed they were really doing good..
My mother had a concussion this winter from slipping on ice salting the driveway...imagining what would happen if the helmets weren't that good scares me.
Respect is due to the Jamaicans! These boys probably never even saw snow before they got to the Olympics, yet they carried themselves with dignity and honour.
For the record, in reality they crashed and did not pick the sled up from the ground to the finish line. In the movie, they picked up the sled to the finish line to add nice dramatic effect. In the movie, the raw crash footage is used, along with added scenes from the actual movie. So, what's all the fuss about?!? Why don't people just read up on this stuff and not be a dumb butt?

the film is completely fictional and heres why:
1. The original team of track racers never wanted to have a bobsled team
2. The first Jamaican bobsled team consisted of 4 people from the Jamaican army
3. They competed in 5 different events before the Olympics
4. They never finished the race
5. who cares because Jamaica finally got the gold in there third Olympic events so "Pick up the rhythm Pick up the rhyme get on up its bobsled time"
