Let's make this birthday one to remember.

79 years old (Born on August 04, 1945)

Happy Birthday, Paul McCarthy! May your day be filled with joy, laughter, and perhaps a few apples tucked safely under armpits. From "Mountain Bowling" to your unforgettable "Hold an Apple in Your Armpit," you've always reminded us that art can be delightfully absurd and wonderfully provocative.

Your fearless creativity continues to inspire generations of artists who dare to push boundaries. Here's hoping this year brings you even more success—though topping the brilliance of bowling down mountains or fruit-based performance art might be tough. Keep shocking us, keep amusing us, and above all else—keep those apples fresh!
