Let's make this birthday one to remember.

83 years old (Born on June 25, 1941)

Happy birthday to the legendary Mike Stoker, our favorite firefighter who made sliding down a pole and driving Engine 51 look effortlessly cool! Your calm demeanor behind that steering wheel—even amidst all those dramatic rescues—made every emergency seem oddly comforting. Who else could respond flawlessly while wearing such a confident grin?

Here's celebrating not just your heroic on-screen saves but also your continued success as an inspiring figure both on set and off. Whether rescuing people or stealing hearts one scene at a time, you've definitely set the bar high for first responders everywhere.

Cheers, Mike—keep blazing trails (but safely)!
