Can you believe David Hasselhoff turned 60 today?!While you wrap your head around the fact that it's been more than 20 years since you saw The Hoff run down a beach in his little trunks on Baywatch, we would also like to congratulate the actor on another achievement—becoming immortalized in wax.Hasselhoff—looking über cool in a leather jacket—was the latest star to have his was figure unveiled, but you can only find this one at Madame Tussauds Museum in Austria.Confused about its location? Don't be.Although it may seem strange that the 60-year-old's statue is halfway across the world, his fame clearly burns brighter across the pond. And, as everyone knows, he's huge in Germany—and clearly just as big with the neighboring Austrians.Congratulations, David! Or should we say: Gratulation!
