Win Cool Runnings on DVD!

Get ready for a feel-good dose of sports comedy with Cool Runnings, the unforgettable film inspired by the true events of the 1988 Winter Olympics. This uplifting story follows a group of unlikely athletes determined to chase their dreams, proving that heart, humour, and belief can make the impossible possible. Now you can win it on DVD and relive the magic all over again.

The story centres on Derice Bannock, a talented Jamaican sprinter who is expected to qualify for his country’s Olympic track team. However, a sudden accident ends his chances, leaving him devastated and searching for another path to the Olympic Games. Instead of giving up, Derice looks for another way to compete on the world stage.

He discovers that a former Olympic champion, Irv Blitzer, is now living in Jamaica. Irv once won gold for the United States in bobsleigh, and Derice becomes convinced that with the right guidance, Jamaica could enter a team in the next Winter Olympics. After some persuasion, Irv agrees to become their coach — though he has no idea what he’s about to take on.

Derice assembles a small team of teammates who have never ridden in a bobsleigh, never trained for winter sports, and in fact have never even seen snow. Their inexperience leads to plenty of funny moments, but their commitment and determination quickly begin to shine through. Under Irv’s tough but caring coaching, the group starts to transform into a real team.

Cool Runnings is a story of courage, perseverance, and believing in yourself even when the odds seem impossible. Filled with humour, charm, and plenty of memorable moments, it remains one of the most loved sports comedies of all time. Winning this DVD means bringing home a film that continues to inspire audiences of all ages.
