Let's make this birthday one to remember.

69 years old (Born on March 11, 1956)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Willie Banks, whose epic triple jumps soared into our hearts—and record books! You left us breathless in the 1980s Olympics and clinched silver at the '83 World Championships, proving gravity might just be optional when you're competing. Your athleticism on track was matched only by your charm off it—clearly worth a gold medal.

Even though years have passed since those electrifying leaps, we still celebrate your incredible legacy today. May your birthday leap over expectations as effortlessly as you soared down runways toward glory—keep hopping through life with that same smile and energy!
