Let's make this birthday one to remember.

50 years old (Born on November 28, 1974)

Happy Birthday, Kristian Schmid! From navigating stormy seas in "Sea Patrol" to stirring up drama on Ramsay Street as Todd Landers in "Neighbours," you've always kept us entertained. Whether you're bravely facing danger or charming audiences with your quick wit and charisma, you make every scene unforgettable.

Here's hoping this birthday brings fewer scripted disasters than a typical day aboard HMAS Hammersley—and definitely less neighborhood gossip from Erinsborough! May the coming year be filled with laughter, success, and plenty of memorable moments both onscreen and off. Keep shining bright—after all these years entertaining Australia (and beyond), we still can't get enough!
