Captain Kirk is climbing a mountain, why is he climbing a mountain?
Official single "Captain Of The Mount" now available at the iTunes store
Few moths ago I was bored and I made this sticker saying "Why is captain Kirk climbing a mountain?" and I glued it to this box on my home street. Weeks went by and I happened to walk by that box again, and I noticed something: there was a sticker underneath my sticker that said "because he wants to make love to the mountain". For a brief moment I felt that I'm not alone in the universe.
awww
A significant part of me hopes this is actually true.
@@davemunger8803 I don't really see why someone would lie about it lmao
@@lyricbot8513 Um, have you spent much time on the internet...? ;)
👻🥳🌈😎👏🙌😍
The funniest part is that this song makes more sense than the interview it's cut from
A bad Star Trek movie.
Where's the interview?

It's Shatner's 93rd birthday. Still here 2024!
Long live Captain Kirk!
Happy birthday William
Yes! Haven't seen this vid in years. Literally just popped up.
And he still wants to bang a mountain
13 years later I still can't help but come back.
Because you’re in love
Yessir
Here I go again
Pure Shatner is always ❤🔥🔥
11 years for me. How does this only have 3 million views?
Must be over a decade since I saw this, but it’s still living rent free in my head. Because I’m in love.
Same. Every time I see a mountain some quote from this some surfaces from the deep part of my brain. Usually just "that mountain, that mountain".
same
I miss this era of the internet
This just showed up on my recommended list for no discernable reason. I've last seen this when I was skill in highschool, like 10 years ago. I really, really miss this era of the internet.
and this th-cam.com/video/GOzkmyDMQIc/w-d-xo.html
I'm tempted to put this on my rock climbing playlist.
+Lauren Hannah do it :p
+Lauren Hannah Don't die when you begin laughing. Pls :(
+Lauren Hannah Go for it and it will reach new heights.
Sounds like a good idea. The sentiment of being love with the mountain you're climbing is beautiful.
This wasn't already on your rock climbing playlist?
A frightening look inside the mind of Mr. Shatner.
This song ages like a vintage 2267 Chateau Picard
Wonderful. Pure. A work of love.
"There is a....passionate affair going on between Kirk and the mountain".
It's one of those Shatner-moments where you don't know if he is joking or dead serious.
deadly serious
It's the slight smirk after he says "that's really going... where no man has gone before" that makes me wonder
A little bit of both
@@lancebaylis3169 he made a pun, i think it's normal to grin or smirk a little when doing that.
Yes
i laughed , i cried, i climbed a mountain
I've just seen Shatner Of The Mount by Fall On Your Sword and nothing prepares you for this. I cheered, I shouted, I climbed a mountain, I cried, I stood and cheered.
Plot twist: The mountain is already married.
Oh no
That won't stop Kirk.
GamerPassion law and order
Umm Kirk won’t stop he will get them a divorce
and kirk would care.... because.... ?
14 years and I swear it gets better every year
You see, Kif, a woman is like a mountain. A sensual, sexy mountain.
The higher you climb, the more of her you can get your arms around. Some men plant their flag at the top, some hang around her peak like a velour cloud.
But whatever you do, don't talk about how many inches she's gained this year. No matter what, tell her erosion has been kind.
I didn't expect to see you here!
Rebecca Groom
i'm errwhrr :B
*sigh* yes sir.
@@rebeccagroom5487 Why? Who is this person?
@@HOTD108_ just an old internet friend
Dragon Con played this on the hotel TVs and on the screens between panels years ago and it has been a meme there ever since
Yes!! That's where I saw this first! 😂
Mr. McCoy: Damit Jim, Your a starfleet Captain, not a rock climber!
Kirk: "but Bones, I'm climbing because I'm in love"
McCoy didn't go through years at Starfleet Medical to be called "Mr" by snot nosed internet commentors
I listened to this song last probably 8 years ago, but so I still think about this weekly? Yes.
Always be yourself, unless you can be Captain Kirk then be Captain Kirk.
be it one decade or a thousand years, the epic of kirk and the mountain will delight mankind.
Back at uni this on repeat would get me through those all-nighters.
good :)
Same
This is the best thing to come out of the final frontier.
I have no idea how this just randomly resurrected itself in my brain today.
Because. Epic.
Oh, you know, it's probably because of our _voracious,_ _fleeting_ and...
_...- illusive_ and...
_...- peripheral..._
...- and that's putting _me_ on the mountain.
Yesterday I was watching something where character was climbing one of those training walls. Their ass was sticking out a lot and they fell.
Without thinking I said "you gotta hug that mountain when climbing" and then the memories hit me.
We peaked here.
This needs to be on Spotify
it's called "Captain Of The Mount" there
@@Kiirabu197 Unfortunately it doesn't have the Shatner sample. It's someone actually reciting the lines instead of this version.
Unironically, I find putting this on a loop and studying to it really helps. It has a good beat and is great for concentration.
I'm back 7 years later to watch this again!
Ten years later for me.
We'll rendezvous back here in 7 more years.
@@ogungou9 same anniversary climbing here
Same
me too
This song is a constant joke between my brother and my mates. We've been sharing the same post of it on facebook for the last 11 years!
Was searching for something else, but this was a suggestion after i input "captain "...
Best sidetrack I've ever had
Welcome to our Shatner guild
Thanks Vinny
Hiatus x Hiatus found the comment I was looking for
Captain Kirk is climbing a mountain
Why is he climbing a mountain? 4x
To hug the mountain
To envelop that mountain
To hug the mountain
To envelop that mountain
To hug the mountain
That mountain
That mountain
He wants to make love to the mountain.
Tough, young guys' sinuous body in there
Fingers and teeny toes
Challenge the rock
Challenging death
Why do I climb the mountain?
Because I'm in love.
There is a passionate affair
Going on between Kirk and the mountain
Kirk is on the
Kirk is on the mountain
Now, in order to create that illusion
Sucking some of the most sensational men who not only climb
Are voracious, fleeting, and illusive and peripheral, and
That's putting me on the mountain.
Captain Kirk is climbing a mountain
Why is he climbing a mountain? 4x
Hold it please.
Hug the mountain
Envelop that mountain
To hug the mountain
To envelop that mountain
To hug the mountain
That mountain
That mountain
He wants to make love to the mountain.
And the climb is going
Where no man has gone before
Where no man has gone before.
Challenge the rock
Challenging death
Why do I climb the mountain?
Because I'm in love.
*teenie toes
*are voracious
is the mountain a femboy? 🤔
*sinewy bodies
Thank you. I don't know if I could have handled watching the whole thing.
#37C3 lets gooo
I remember living in Fresno, Ca. back in the 80s when the movie Star Trek was being filmed at Yosemite.
Cool time!
i miss the internet from 10 years ago!
It's still one of the best things I've ever witnessed on TH-cam.
10 years and this song is still 🔥
13 years...still🔥
I went to a con where this song runs on the toilets in an endless loop
Chaos Computer Congress? (short CCC) initiated by the Chaos Computer Club (short CCC) in the Location Congress Center Hambug (Short CCH) so yes to keep it short it was recently played in the toilets at the CCC - From the CCC - in the CCH
@@lolHorst-rr5fzyes indeed
Here I am 2021 remembering the beats and the love of the mountain
Her: "He's probably thinking about other women..."
Him: "Captain Kirk is climbing a mountain- Why is he climbing a mountain?"
Timeless. Why do I come back to this video?…..because I’m in love
I remember watching this just after it was uploaded. And her me I am, 11 years later watching it again. A testament to you sir.
Can't believe it's been 14 years with this song living rent-free in my head. Clinging tightly with its teeny toes.
I think you mean teenage toes and not teeny weeny toes
@hartwarg3051 listen again. He says teeny toes. Not teenage toes. Like I said, I've been listening to this song for 14 years. Haha.
@@jeremylefevre9610 I mean the definition of teeny as an abbreviation of teenager instead of teeny weeny
@hartwarg3051 no one said teeny weeny but you. And I have never in my long life heard that as an abbreviation of teenager. You must be confused or high. I'm referencing the lyrics to the song in this video. So, stop, just stop.
@@jeremylefevre9610 Teenybopper. Look it up and learn something.
still a better love story than Twilight
+Remorf Chucket Indeed.
Still as relevant today as it was 3 years ago.
you win the internet
a better mountain epic than Vertical Limit
Lmfao!!!
VITAL QUESTION:
Is there a karaoke version?
When your DM asks you why your DnD character does whatever idiotic thing they are doing.
This is why I love the internet.
Tried to reference this at work today and felt profoundly alone with this treasure. Someday
Ah, that beautiful era of the internet, where important questions were answered, such as why Cpt Kirk climbs a mountain and where the hobbits went...
It's funny how this sounds better than when Shatner actually tries to sing.
Heeey, Has Been is actually a solid album. Mostly because it's very well produced, but it's solid and you should check it out.
@@interdimensionalsteve8172 I agree. His Common People is better than original IMO. Joe Jackson does great too.
@@MrRobertCanary i may not like shatner as a man himself, but GODDAMN does his common people slap
But the Rock-IT mannnnn...... rendition of elton john's classic lol
@@interdimensionalsteve8172 Still one of my favorite albums to this day. And it's funny because Shatner never tries to sing in any of my favorite tracks lol.
*aggressive clockwise hammer swinging*
Ian MacLeod Challenge the rock.
iunderstoodthatrefrence.lpeg
Yeah! Yeah, fall all the way down, yeah!
this remains a classic. I hope y'all give his post rocket speech about the black of space "Is it death?" a similar treatment because omg then it might all make sense.
"Challenge the rock...challenging...DEATH"
...
Why do I climb the mountain? Because I'm in love."
You don't just challenge The Rock!
Thanks Vinny, I am now ascendent
Here for my weekly dose.
weekly... WEEKLY WHY NOT DAILY?!?!???!?!?!?!???!?!?
Or hourly...
why not every minute
why not every second?
This never gets old.
This video is so old now, but here I am 10 years later searching it out. What a great one.
This will never get old for me. Love Shatner.
I'm conflicted. I don't know if I like this or the Picard song better.
Picard song? Where??
@@Jaydee-wd7wr here's my favorite open.spotify.com/track/5VcOZYRlC02MDPD95bi0rs?si=osS9lBZHSrKF8lHXTzJSYg
5 years late, but have you heard data and Picard by pogo
ThatKrejsyOne oh i thought yall were talking about the one with the flaming apes
Only question I
Ever thought was hard
Was "Do I like Kirk
Or do I like Picard?"
I come back to this video Twice per year. there is a passionate affair going on between me and Kirks brokeback mountain.
Thank you, Spacedock.
I just won the TH-cam lottery finding this!
13 years later still on the mountain still on that rock! Because I'm in love.
3 years and 145 days of straight listening to this song day and night.
This is within the realm of possibility, and since no one would just go on the internet and tell lies, I admire your persistence.
Damn bro, hellos from 11 years later! Hope you well.
Getting Over It
Congrats on getting a Lower Decks shoutout. This song is now canon!
Dat mountain. Dat mountain.
The cadence is perfect
Motto of the day: "Make love to the mountain!"
Vinny is climbing a mountain, why is he climbing a mountain?
cause he needs to get over it :V
To overcome the challenge
Wow yeah he was who I found this song from.
@@astillia6073 same, almost 12 years ago
14 years and still pushing that frontier.
14 years. This ages like a fine Romulan ale.
Can't get over this song for a while now.. Definitely one of my TH-cam favorites. This video strikes a chord (the same chord), brutally, through a few things: Shatner's attitude, the retro look and sound, and Star Trek, which, even if it deals with the future, is the 'retro' generation :D It gives a sense of coolness that happened and can never be reached again, hence the extra nostalgia... And this is true, THIS will never happen again, but thanks to the author & TH-cam we'll have it forever.
Never forget this gem.
8/10, too much water ~ IGN
7.8/10*
2021. 11 years.
Today Captain Kirk climbed in to space. God bless him!
William Shatner is flying to space. Why is he flying to space?
he wants to make love to the stars i guess
To envelop the universe.
@@pockypurse his ego is probably big enough.
Anyone still watching this on stardate 93728.08??
I don't know, anyone posting from 23rd September 2416?
I'll never not come back to this.
Here I am 7 years later. And the video is still hilarious. And the best. Ever.
I have often at @bouldersUK why captain kirk is climbing the mountain - this video puts it all in context now
This song has aged like a fine wine frozen in your freezer.
Came back for the nostalgia, stayed because of how hilarious this gets of you picture this song being about Gregor Clegane.
glad to be a newbie star trek fan and discover internet relics
NS-18, 2021: Nice landing. Congrats Captain Kirk! ✌ 👍 👏
It's probably been 5-10 years since this last popped into my head, but I was just listening to a podcast where someone said they'd hug a mountain, and instantly my brain comes right back here. In a wild coincidence, the person on that podcast was Tig Notaro, who plays Jett Reno in ST:Discovery. She's also completely blind to basically any sort of pop culture reference (let alone niche old meme culture), so it's just a weirdly perfect moment of synchronicity, and I love that 😚👌
The Name 'Shatner of The Mount' sounds like a song from Les Miserables
Still listening in 2022 !!
He climbs a little bit further than that mountain with Blue Origin today :D He's 90 Year old now... amazing...
This is the coolest and most screwed up thing I've ever seen, I love it LOL
Red XIII said something in FF7 Rebirth about becoming one with the mountain and I was instantly Ratatouille flashbacked to this
So much win!
I have no idea if the new movies mean that sadly this amazing event never happened.
Maybe a remix with a Chris Pine interview. ...who knows?
This is what the internet was made for
I was today years old when I found this. Thank you for your service. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much for this music and video. It makes this sublime speech even more sublime.
Never gets old!
This is my hype song every time before I go climbing
0:51 Captain Kirk vs Dwayne "The Rock' Johnson. Wrestlemania 41, 2025. 😆
I'm so happy I stumbled across this. It's the best video I've seen in a while. 😂😂😂
I just played this and Captain of the Mount on iTunes at the same time.
So much awesome.
Beware of purchasing off iTunes or Amazon! The track is not the same as the audio in this video.
