Let's make this birthday one to remember.

73 years old (Born on December 14, 1951)

Happy Birthday, Paul Beakman Zaloom! From electrifying hairdos to mind-blowing experiments on "Beakman's World," you've sparked curiosity and laughter in generations of budding scientists. Who else could make slime so educational or static electricity hairstyles look runway-ready? Your zany antics have forever etched science into our hearts—and occasionally onto the ceiling.

Even today, your legacy continues as new fans discover reruns online—proving that good humor mixed with great science never goes out of style. May this birthday be filled with joy (and perhaps fewer explosions than usual). Keep inspiring us all; after all these years, you're still positively charged!
