Winter Olympics 2014: Whatever happened to those unlikely bobsleigh heroes from Jamaica? Yet nothing can top the wholly unlikely original tale of student Chris, his army captain brother Dudley Stokes and two other military buddies, Devon Harris and Michael White, who, with the backing and support of two US businessmen, practised religiously on a makeshift sleigh in the stifling Jamaican heat in preparation for Calgary. He had never even seen a bobsleigh before yet a week later was having the adventure of a lifetime with his head scraping along the ice at 85mph after the sled driven by big brother overturned in the final Olympic run. I can still smell the burning fibreglass on the ice and can remember how I suddenly realised it was my helmet! I'd only be in the sport for a week. Fortunately, I didn't know enough to be terrified," he says with a smile now. The team expected to be ridiculed for their failure. Instead they were immediately hailed as heroes, from the applauding crowd at trackside all the way to the rapturous reception back in Jamaica. These days, 51-year-old Dudley Stokes, the Sandhurst-trained captain and team leader, runs a logistics business in the Turks and Caicos Islands while Harris, 49, is a children's book author and motivational speaker in upstate New York and White, 49, has been managing a department store in New York City. "It's a great memory and I'm surprised how much it still impacts on people here today," says Chris. That movie is still shown so often here on the cable networks that even a new generation knows about our story. Winston will be keeping it alive too.
