Shatner: "I Need More Power Scotty"
Timothy Birdnow
Apparently the Starship Enterprise isn't the only heavy metal in William Shatner's life.
The man is a wonder; in his mid-nineties and going on a concert tour doing not soft ballads but Heavy Metal.
One thing you can say for Shatner - he got the most out of his life.

Shatner is also the host of the History Channel's "UnXplained" series, and does a great job of it.
I think it must be a helluva lot of fun to be William Shatner!

Yeah; I watch that show sometimes. It MUST BE a blast to be him, no question. That's what keeps the guy going like he does.
He was on a show a few years ago where he traveled with Henry Winkler, George Foreman, and Terry Bradshaw. It was a hoot! He was so funny on that show, always starting trouble and pulling practical jokes on the rest - and they got back at him.
One time they were mad at him when they were in Latvia and so they set up a fake border with Russia (miles from the real thing) and had fake Russian soldiers arrest him and lock him up. Another time he wanted to box George Foreman on his birthday and Foreman was just pecking at him at most until Shatner put everything into one punch and you could see anger flash in Foreman's eyes. Long story short they had to take Shatner to the hospital.
It was a fun show. Too bad Covid ended it.
