Cool Runnings
Caribbean winter sport
Cool Runnings is a 1993 comedy film about the Jamaican national bobsled team's improbable debut at the 1988 Winter Olympics.
The title plays on Jamaican patois for "peace" or "everything's all right." The phrase and film title evoke underdog spirit and unlikely athletic achievement: It's like Cool Runnings out here—we've got no business being in this race, but here we are.
