Let's make this birthday one to remember.

49 years old (Born on January 27, 1976)

Happy Birthday, Peter Haggstrom! You soared into our hearts at the 2000 Summer Olympics with your impressive leaps. Sure, finishing 24th overall might not have landed you on a cereal box—but hey, it definitely earned you eternal bragging rights and endless admiration from those of us who struggle to jump over puddles.

Today we celebrate someone whose Olympic spirit continues to inspire smiles (and maybe some friendly teasing). May this birthday bring as much joy as that unforgettable leap onto the world stage—because let's face it: jumping farther than most people can run is always worth celebrating!
