When the Jamaican bobsleigh team first qualified for the Olympics it was such a momentous occasion it sparked a hit movie.
The 1993 film Cool Runnings starred actor John Candy and told the story of how the team overcame all the odds to take up their place at the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary.
But while much of the film was dismissed as Disney make-believe, the fact that the team got there at all was a real fairytale achievement - and even finished in 30th place out of 41 competing teams.
