An incredible story of frustration, broken bones, and ultimate triumph in the Olympics.
Ruben wasn't a gifted athlete. He didn't take up the Olympic sport of luge until he was 21. Against all odds, four years and a few broken bones later he was competing in the Calgary Winter Olympics. At the age of 47 he was racing against 20-year-olds at the Vancouver Olympics.
This is the incredible story of how an ordinary person with an extraordinary dream achieved his destiny - and how you can achieve your destiny.
