Let's make this birthday one to remember.

61 years old (Born on December 05, 1963)

Happy Birthday, Eddie "The Eagle" Edwards! You soared into history as Britain's first Olympic ski jumper, bravely launching yourself off icy ramps and straight into our hearts. Your fearless leaps—and occasional spectacular landings—made you a legend who proved that courage and determination can outshine medals any day.

From breaking British distance records to inspiring millions with your unforgettable Olympic spirit, you've shown us all how to embrace life's ups (and downs) with humor and grace. May this birthday bring you joy higher than your highest jump—and may the cake landing be smoother than some of those early attempts!
