Hunky, blond, sometimes-buffoonish but always-charming Chris Zylka turns 29 this week, and to celebrate, we decided to get together some of this actor’s most shining moments from his already illustrious career. What’s your fave?

1. Faye and Jake hookup on Secret Circle


Talk about a rocky start. And middle and end, for that matter! But that moment when they’re canoodling just before discovering the Meades Family Crystal is just too, too good.

2. Tyler and Jo have sex on Twisted


This was kinda the newsflash of the century, with Jo revealing the news to Tess in the simplest of terms: “I slept with Tyler.” Her status as virgin was also big news, with Tyler finding out at the last minute.

3. Flash Thompson gets his ass whooped by Peter Parker in The Amazing Spider-Man


When Peter was still wimpy, Flash was one of the main obstacles he had to contend with each day: bullying was already a big story theme back then in comics. The moment in the new franchise’s first film when the tables are turned is priceless.

4. Chris Zylka featured in REFLECT IT BACK charitable photography series


…Uh, take a look at that picture. Need we say more?

5. Joey and Bianca make out in the supply closet in 10 Things I Hate About You


Only someone as hunky as Chris Zylka can get away with referring to himself as a “gorgeous status accessory” just before getting kissed by a sweet Bianca.
