Let's make this birthday one to remember.

58 years old (Born on August 11, 1966)

Happy Birthday, Duff Gibson! You're the only guy we know who can slide headfirst down an icy track at breakneck speed and still come out smiling. Remember Turin 2006? You edged out teammate Jeff Pain by a whisker—proving once and for all that skeleton racing is just sledding for grown-ups with nerves of steel.

Years may pass, but your Olympic gold remains timeless—just like your sense of humor (and hopefully your reflexes). Here's to another year of sliding gracefully through life, always ahead by fractions of a second. Keep being awesome, Duff; you're truly Canada's coolest champion!
