“I’m 86 today! Nothing like some playful action on a sunny day to make you feel young,” he wrote in the caption. “I’m grateful for another year, good health and the chance to keep doing what I love. Thank you all for being the best fans in the world. Your support through the years has meant more to me than you’ll ever know.”


He later thanked fans for the birthday wishes.

The ‘Walker, Texas Ranger’ actor is pretty active on the platform, where he has 2.8 million followers. He often shares updates on his activities and also buys into the legendary jokes about his strength and invincibility.

“Rumor has it when I finish my workout, the weights have to take a break, haha! All kidding aside, I hope you all had a great summer and continue to have a wonderful rest of your year,” he shared in one post showing him lifting an incredible amount of weight (clearly AI).

We wish Chuck the very best amid this ordeal.
