He’s having the best year of his life, having scored 2 gold, 2 silver, and 1 bronze medals at the 2012 London Olympic Games, and today (August 3) Ryan Lochte turns 28 years old!

The handsome swimmer took to his Twitter account to declare, “Here in London is a special day. My birthday #Jeah #Jeah #Jeah.”

And during his interview with Ryan Seacrest earlier today, Ryan confessed that he peed in the Olympic swimming pool.

He explained, “I think there’s just something about getting into chlorine water that you just automatically go. [I didn't] during the races, but I sure did in warm-up.”
