Today Diamond Dave turns 68-years-old! The eccentric Van Halen frontman we all know and love sure has made some wild memories the past 68 years on Earth.

To celebrate Roth’s birthday, here are some fun facts you might not have known about him.

  1. Back in the day, Roth created “Diamond Dave’s Bonus Program,” where he would pay $100 to whichever roadcrew member brought him a girl to sleep with.
  2. In 2013, Roth played a hitman in the Japanese short film Tokyo Story.
  3. He’s actually known for his unlikely skill at being incognito.
  4. He once got in a food fight with security guards and an MTV contest winner.
  5. He insured his “dong” for $1 million.
