Let's make this birthday one to remember.

66 years old (Born on September 23, 1958)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Scott Shaw—master martial artist, Zen Filmmaking pioneer, and director extraordinaire! Your films like "Undercover X" have taught us that scripts are overrated; all you need is a camera, some kung fu moves, and an unshakable belief in improvisation. You've truly shown Hollywood how it's done (or at least confused them thoroughly).

Here's wishing another year filled with spontaneous adventures on set—and off it—as your unique style continues inspiring filmmakers everywhere. May this birthday be as epic as one of your unscripted fight scenes: unpredictable yet unforgettable. Keep kicking life's butt gracefully!
