This Morning published this video item, entitled “Benjamin Alexander: From Successful DJ to Becoming Jamaica’s First Olympic Skier In History | TM” – below is their description.
Jamaica has long punched above its weight at the Summer Olympics, but when it comes to the winter event, the tropical island rarely makes waves. However, British-Jamaican skier Benjamin Alexander (38) hopes to change that. Despite learning to ski just six years ago, Benjamin recently qualified for the Beijing Winter Olympics. He joined us to talk about making sporting history, being told he’s got the ‘worst technique’ by a fellow athlete, and how the 1993 film ‘Cool Runnings’ inspired him.
