William Shatner, the most youthful 91 year old man, why?

[Yong Fang]

I am a big Star Trek fan (of the older series, not the junk now, but thats another topic) and on Facebook I am on a William Shatner club page.

I am shocked and fascinated how YOUNG this man looks at 91 years old. He looks twenty years younger. He hasnt aged, he looks the same as he did in the show Boston Legal, and that show was on 15 years ago (just researched it and a bit shocked on how fast time has travelled.

My father is a year younger than him, but he looks 90. He is 90. His waistline on his pants has risen, has a neck waddle. All of that. But my father never smoked, rarely drank alcohol and was always reasonably fit. We were never poor, and now he is a small millionaire. He also had a job he enjoyed. But my father looks like he could be Shat's father although he is a year younger.

Clint Eastwood is a year older than Shat, but he looks 92. I saw his last movie "Cry Macho" (not a bad film if you like Clint), but Clint looks 92. He is old, pants have gone north. He shuffles when he walks.

I saw a recent video of Shatner's nemesis George Tekai who played Sulu and he has really aged. He is old, because he is old. But he is six years younger than Shat.

So what's the deal? Trick photography? Has anyone seen him or a video of him? Oddly, he is slightly overweight. If he was the age he looks, I would advise him to eat less, but he's 91 so why bother?

Any insight?

Last time i saw him was on a Medicare ad. Right, you'd never guess he was 91, maybe 71.

Why not?

All that time in space slowed down the aging process.

The Hair Club for Men helped a little too.

And perhaps a tuck or lift here and there.

And some Grecian formula.

The guy looks fantastic for his age and he is also still very sharp when he talks. It is not trick photography or anything like that. And oddly enough his extra weight for some reason also plays a little part in addition to everything else in making him look so much younger. I don't know why that is but that is the way I see it. He can pass for a man in his 60s.

When people talk about William Shatner the show that they mostly associate him with is Star Trek but it's hard to believe that William Shatner is still going strong and healthy at 91 and what is his secret to being youthful and active so long? We will never know but I think William Shatner has shown the world that even when you're even in your 90's you can still be successful as a celebrity because it's your main hobby. It's hard to believe that William has been active in TV for so long trying out many different jobs ranging from movie star TV star game show host and even commercial star and even designed his own line of computer games in the 90's as well. So because of his amazing strongness I cannot see William Shatner retiring from Hollywood anytime soon because acting is the one thing he LOVES the most because he gets to show off his talents and he will never stop doing what he truly loves
