Let's make this birthday one to remember.

54 years old (Born on May 22, 1970)

Happy Birthday, George Kourounis! May your celebrations be as thrilling and electrifying as chasing tornadoes or dangling over volcanoes. You've spent years boldly going where most people run away from—storms, hurricanes, volcanic eruptions—and somehow made it look easy (and fun!). Your fearless adventures on "Angry Planet" not only earned you Gemini nominations in 2008 and 2009 but also inspired countless viewers to appreciate the wild beauty of our planet.

Here's hoping this year brings even more epic journeys without too many close calls. Keep chasing storms—but maybe take a break today for cake instead of lightning strikes!
