tearsThis BBC article about 80 things that make men cry got me thinking about what makes me cry.

Am I the only one who cries at the end of Cool Runnings, when after they crash they pick up the bobsled and carry it to finish the race? It gets me everytime.

I love this movie and I love this scene.

How about at the end of The Natural? How can you not cry?
