William Shatner Explains the Motivations of Climbers

Captain Kirk likes to climb mountains.

In Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, the movie starts with Captain Kirk most of the way up a free solo ascent of El Capitan. Of course, Spock has to mess things up by showing up in his jet boots.

We've posted this clip in the past, but we've never had William Shatner's commentary on the scene before. It's pretty funny. William Shatner is clearly not a climber. This is the clip where William Shatner explains that mountain climbers like to hug and make love to the mountain:



And this is the remix of the clip fashioned as a musical.



Yep, Captain Kirk sure likes to climb mountains...

--Jason D. Martin
