Let's make this birthday one to remember.

51 years old (Born on July 04, 1974)

Happy Birthday, Denis Pankratov! May your celebrations be as swift and graceful as your legendary butterfly stroke. We still marvel at how you soared through the water to claim double Olympic gold in Atlanta '96, dominating both the 100-meter and 200-meter butterfly events with unmatched style.

Even though years have passed since those golden moments, your legacy continues to inspire swimmers worldwide. Here's hoping this birthday brings laughter louder than cheering crowds and cake sweeter than victory itself—just remember not to dive headfirst into it! Wishing you endless happiness today; may life always keep pace with your record-breaking spirit.
