Let's make this birthday one to remember.

88 years old (Born on December 28, 1936)

Happy Birthday, Jacques Mesrine! Your legendary escapades have truly set the bar high—literally. Who else could turn prison breaks into an art form? You've proven repeatedly that walls and bars are merely suggestions rather than actual obstacles.

From daring escapes to audacious disguises, your life story reads like a thrilling novel we can't put down (and neither can law enforcement). Here's hoping this birthday finds you plotting yet another spectacular adventure—but perhaps one involving cake instead of crime!

Cheers to you, Jacques—the man who made Houdini look amateurish. May your day be as unforgettable as your infamous exploits!
