It may have come out before he was born but Manchester City star Benjamin Mendy is clearly a fan of comedy classic Cool Runnings.
The 1994 film tells the story of the Jamaican bobsleigh team at the 1988 Winter Olympics and features a famous scene when one of the characters, Sanka Coffie, is put in a freezer to help him adapt to the cold weather.
The City player poked some fun at himself by posting a picture where he is in a cryotherapy chamber, comparing it to the freezer scene in the film.
