Happy Birthday, Sala! May your special day be filled with more excitement than a pyrotechnic explosion on set and fewer mishaps than an overly ambitious stunt double. Your incredible talent in bringing epic scenes to life through jaw-dropping effects has left audiences amazed—and occasionally ducking for cover!From Middle-earth's fiery battles to blockbuster spectacles that keep us glued (and sometimes jumping) from our seats, you've consistently dazzled the world behind-the-scenes. Here's hoping this year brings you even bigger explosions—professionally speaking only—and plenty of laughs along the way.
Cheers to another fantastic trip around the sun—you legendary Kiwi wizard!
