In 1988, the world was introduced to something no one expected:
the Jamaican bobsled team.
Before the movie Cool Runnings became a worldwide classic in 1993, this story was real — and it began long before Hollywood ever touched it. This archived Los Angeles news segment captures the moment the world first met the team that shocked the Winter Olympics.
This footage shows the reactions, challenges, and curiosity surrounding a group of athletes stepping into a sport no one imagined Jamaica participating in — and doing it with pride.
Whether you grew up watching Cool Runnings or you’re discovering the true story for the first time, this is a rare look at the real moment history began.
