Let's make this birthday one to remember.

69 years old (Born on November 07, 1955)

Happy Birthday, Dan! You've spent a lifetime proving that elevators are overrated by scaling skyscrapers like the John Hancock Center, Renaissance Tower, and even the legendary World Trade Center. Most of us get winded climbing stairs—meanwhile you're casually conquering buildings in record-breaking style.

Here's hoping your next year is filled with excitement (maybe more on solid ground?) and achievements as epic as your climbs. In Maine or atop soaring city structures around the globe—you constantly remind us all to aim high...though perhaps not quite THAT literally! Wishing you grip strength forever strong—and celebrations safely closer to sea level this time around!
