In 1987, Chris cheated death in a horrific crash in Cervinia, Italy, a track now closed due to its high rate of severe injuries, where he broke two ribs, clavicle and nose, suffered severe lacerations requiring skin grafting on his face, shoulder, hands and thigh. The following year, he recovered to qualify for his first Olympic games.

In 1990, he and his team returned to Cervinia, Italy in the second to last World Cup race of the year where they set the track record, putting the team in position to win the Overall World cup, which they accomplished by winning the final race in Calgary and becoming the first non-Europeans to win the Overall World Cup in bobsleigh.
Chris Lori attributes his sport success to spending most of his time working through difficult challenges and in the state of frustration, yet tenaciously persisting in a very complex and competitive environment.
