Dear Link,
Happy Mythical 40th birthday! I hope you enjoy your day with family and friends. I just wanted to say, don't feel bad about being picky, I'm probably worse. I also want to say you have a great, funny personality. You are a great example of realising your inner child in the best way possible. I look up to you and love you so much. Please don't change for anyone, unless it will make you better, which I don't think is possible.
Mythical Beast,

Happy Birthday Link!
I want you to know that you (and Rhett) are a part of our day, nearly every day. My whole family (including our 8 children) love watching you. Our family has been going thru a rough time this year and having your videos every day gave us something to laugh together and look forward to. You seem like such a genuine person and that is so rare in the entertainment industry.
you are one of the funniest people I’ve ever seen on any form of entertainment.
Our family often prays for you (and Rhett) and your families and we are happy to see that God has blessed your company.
Keep being who you are!
Lots and lots of love from us in Northern Minnesota.
Link,
At 40 years of age. I think I speak for a majority of us when I say that when I reach that age. I hope I keep even half your spirit. Half your kindness. Half your enthusiasm. I've been watching GMM almost since it started and have enjoyed watching you grow within the show. You've shown me a lot of smiles. You've made my day good when it was bad. You're an amazing person and I hope that this day is special with all those who you share it with!
I hope that the years keep ticking on by, that we get to continue to enjoy your amazing personality!
Always be your Mythical Best,
PS: In honor of your birthday. Me and my wife have named one of our Miniature horses after you since we know you love them so much! His registered name is Dakota 'The Missing Link' Hooves.
Happy birthday link! The episode when you ate the ghost pepper was one of my favorite episodes ever! I hope you have a fantastic birthday and eat plenty of cake before Rhett takes it all! 😂😝

Just look at how far you’ve come. You’ve come from making commercials to having one of the most watched talk shows on Youtube. Be proud of where you are because it’s an amazingly perfect reason to be proud. I wish you the best mythical birthday you’ve ever had, and I wish you lifelong luck and happiness for you and your family. Enjoy your birthday and I hope it’s going to be better than your previous birthdays.

I love watching your show because it's so cheerful and comedic.
Lastly, I’d like to say...
Enjoy your day as much as you can, because it only comes once a year! 😊
Sending the best regards to you, your family and friends on your birthday,
Happy birthday Link!
From what I get to see on camera, you are a amazing and kind hearted person. You have taught me it’s okay
To be yourself in front of others, no matter what they think and that everyone has their quirks but that makes us who we are.
You have showed me that I am not the only walking awkward situation on Earth, and to embrace it because it makes me who I am.
Because of you, I try my hardest to be my mythical best everyday.
And that is why I want to wish you a mythical birthday and to many more.
Love,
For Link on his 40th birthday...
I dmed you on the Instagram and have dmed a couple of mythical crew members, I just wanted to say that your grey hair is super cute and happy birthday Link! I have snuck my iPad up to my room every single weekday just to watch GMM, and I gave my friend $20 so she could go get me the book of mythicality, because I am sadly not allowed to watch GMM,I am 14 and have known you guys since I can remember, sometimes I listen to Ear Biscuits when my parents are gone! Im sorry if this is really random!😂but let’s get to my point, you are a great person, I love the way u have to deal w/ Rhett all the time!🤣and have a great 40th Birthday, Link!
I just want to wish Link a very happy birthday and to say he has inspires me to just be me and not to care about what other people thank about me.
Two best friends on the internet.
One has a birthday coming up.
He loves his dog and his cereal bowl.
So what could I possibly do for him
that he hasn't done for me?
So for his birthday
I give him my best wishes
for future seasons of good mythical mornings to come.
And him knowing he and his best friend
are changing my best friend's and my lives.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LINK!!!
Link Neal 40
It's not just the beautiful baby blues
That clears when in amusement
That rolls when in annoyance
And shine when filled with wonder
It's not just the nice lips
Or the charismatic smile
Or the endearing grin
Or the infectious laughter
It's not just the great humor
Weird, and awkward, and irresistible
Boisterous, and goofy, and wild
Surprising, and fun, and lovely
It's not just the inspiring life
With all the accomplishment
With all the creativity
And full of heart
It's not just Link
It's family
It's friends
It's Rhett
Learning , Growing , Creating
Finding, Sharing, Caring
Loving
That's Link Neal
40 awesome years
Congratulations
and many more
Love,
Dear Link,
Happy 40th Birthday!! I am from the United Kingdom, and I always tune in to watch Good Mythical Morning, Monday through Friday and it is the highlight of the morning for me seeing you and Rhett make me laugh. Even when times were hard for me, you always make me laugh and it is on my bucket list to visit Mythical Entertainment at some point in my life to come and meet you and to also thank you for inspiring me to be my Mythical Best.
But on a serious note, you are my number one inspiration, you always make me go above and beyond and I wish nothing but happiness for you in your later life.
Yours Faithfully,
HAPPY 40TH BIRTHDAY LINK
You are a very honest, kind and respected man by so many people, the bond that you and Rhett have will never be broken and the chemistry you have with your crew is brilliant.
I love everything about you and Rhett there is not 1 thing that I don't like. My son loves all your videos (he even tried watching them in school) I also love all your videos.
Your so open and funny with all us mythical beasts, keep up the hard work and keep doing what your doing.
Your a true gent and your wife and children must be very proud of you just like us mythical beasts.
HAPPY 40TH BIRTHDAY LINK 🎊🎊🎉🎉>

Dear Link,
I hope you have an absolutely phenomenal birthday!! You are an incredible human being w/ so much to offer & believe me when I say we are all so grateful to have you in our lives. For me, at least, you have changed my life in so many ways & in many different facets, and I like to believe I am a happier & better person having gotten to watch & know you over the past few years. I just adore your character & your thoughtfulness & how you can almost instantly make someone smile; just like that. I am also tremendously proud of everything you’ve achieved over the past 4 decades. You have done so much for this world. Everyday, you inspire me & motivate me and I couldn't ever say thank you enough, I would love to say more but I would most likely just ramble & repeat myself.
Thank you, happy birthday & best wishes!
Dear Link,
HAPPY THE BIRTHDAY! It is quite a year for you, as you are turning 40, and I give you my wishes and happiness throughout your birthday festivities. Here I have drawn a picture of you, below it is the reference point. I am sorry I did not color it, for I had attempted it, but it did not work out too well and I decided to keep you uncolored. This is one of the first pictures of a person I have drawn, and I hope you like it. I have been watching yours and Rhett's channels since circa 2013/2014. My 10 year old self really enjoyed you guys on the weekends, and as she has grown, she kept the tradition and daily routine with her. Your videos have gotten me through some tough times, and I hope that you guys will continue for years and years to come. You guys have inspired me to start an art account on Instagram, if curious @theonlyoneinthebox, and even though it does not have that many followers, I have learned from you guys to never give up and follow my passions. I hope you have a splendid birthday and enjoy this art, and thank you for helping me become my Mythical Best.
With Love,
Dear Link
I hope you have a very Happy 40th Birthday. I look forward to meeting you and Rhett at the Melbourne Tour of Mythicality. Safe travels for you, Rhett and all who make the journey with you to Australia.
Love to you and Rhett
Mythicality Yours
Dear Link,
Thank you for being you. Thank you for reminding others that you can still be young at heart. Also thank you for reminding others (especially me) that "When in doubt, jazz hands it out 👐".
Hope you have an awesome day, and a blessed year! Happy Birthday Link 🎂🎉🎈
Sincerely,
