Hello,

Aujourd’hui, vous avez découvert un premier extrait de Cool Runnings!

Key elements for a bobsled team

Bobsled is a winter sport.

A bobsled is not a pushcart with no wheels.

The key elements for a successful bobsled are:

– a steady driver,

– three strong runners to push,

– and ice.

It’s a winter sport but in Jamaica there is no ice, no igloos, no Eskimos and no penguins.

So Sanka is shocked, he thinks his friend is crazy and he goes away!
