Quattro atleti giamaicani sfidano la sorte gareggiando in occasione delle Olimpiadi di Calgary (Canada) in qualità di corridori di bob. Con risorse esigue e con nessuna esperienza, compiere l'impresa per questo gruppo di "ragazzi dei tropici" si prospetta faticoso. Nonostante tutto, Derice Bannock, Sanka Coffie, Yul Brenner e Junior Bevil si recano nella fredda Calgary per competere sul ghiaccio. I quattro giamaicani si assicurano la cooperazione di un ex campione americano di nome Irv che cede alla tentazione di allenare un team "di semi-disperati'.
