Tal’s Olympic career would span ten years and<br />
four Winter Olympics, including Albertville in 1992,<br />
Lillehammer in 1994, and Nagano in 1998. At each<br />
Olympics, <strong>the</strong> Jamaicans showed <strong>the</strong>y could compete<br />
among <strong>the</strong> best. At Lillehammer, <strong>the</strong> team came in 14th<br />
place overall out <strong>of</strong> 30 teams, ahead <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> United States,<br />
Russia, and France. On <strong>the</strong>ir fourth run, <strong>the</strong>y clocked <strong>the</strong><br />
10th best time overall. Some teams even stopped being<br />

entrepreneurial ventures with George and William and<br />
worked to advance bobsledding in Jamaica. He and<br />
Denise had three children, who eventually discovered<br />
“Cool Runnings.” (They loved <strong>the</strong> movie.) Soon after<br />
COVID-19 hit and locked down <strong>the</strong> world for part <strong>of</strong> 2020,<br />
<strong>the</strong> children, now in <strong>the</strong>ir early 20s and isolating in <strong>the</strong><br />
UK, came up with a creative idea. Why not live-stream<br />
