Ive wanted to do this episode for a few years now. Even tho Vasquez Rocks have been filmed and shown countless times and mentioned as The Gorn location it was never properly documented scene for scene . I felt this task needed to be tackled. Hope you enjoy . Download the parody song HERE www.jamesrtramontana.com/products/613149-wootrek . Thanks to EPK for the camera help ru-vid.com . Lastly thanks to all those who support thru crowd funding www.patreon.com/adamthewoo

Star Trek over Star Wars? No. No! That's not true! That's impossible! Search your feelings; you know it to be true! NOOOOOOO! LOL, Mark, I like both as well, but am much more a Star Wars freak than a Trekkie.

@KrazyJoesConcessionStand2 6 лет назад

You mentioned wanting to do this at Dragon Con when we ran into that guy in the Gorn costume! Glad you finally made it!! (And now I'll cast my vote once again for E.T. locations ;) )

@user-xu4ow3bu6f 2 года назад

Thank you so much for this. I go about once a month , and it took me over 20 years of visits to actually compel myself to look closely and find the spot where Kirk fires the cannon. You found it much more quickly and did good research. But I will tell you and I believe you will agree that it is a special joy when you find each of those locations. I go sometimes and just sit there on the rock where Kirk fires the cannon. Thank you again for having so much fun and connecting to all the people who love nostalgia.

@adamthewoo 6 лет назад

I retitled this video with Kirk vs Gorn simply because the vast majority of people know it as that and not it's real name "Arena" . As stated in the description it's correct episode name is mentioned . For all the Star Trek purists out there

@thrummer1953 6 лет назад

So, the old title is Gorn with the Wind.

@GregsVlog 6 лет назад

I caught that you renamed it. Makes sense. Most people wouldn't know it by the title "Arena" anyway.

@mikeg5872 6 лет назад

adamthewoo HI Adam ,Here is an awesome movie filming locations video and areas that you should check out they are located in The California and Tuscon Arizona Areas ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-WCcp_NfDLOc.html

@dolfcolt7256 6 лет назад

@ComputerLearning0 4 года назад

I've seen a couple people document this spot as the Gorn battle site but never to this detail. I'll bet William Shatner himself would enjoy watching this and remembering his time spent filming this iconic episode more than half a century ago. Always great seeing adam and knowing he's still out there showing us such fantastic sites as this. I am disabled (Parkinson's) and homebound and the internet is the only way I can experience the world. Thank you Adam for your wonderful adventures around this great country :>)

Such a classic episode of TOS... It's amazing how so much of the Vasquez Rocks location still looks exactly the same as it did back then, to this day! And this shot-for-shot recapturing of it, including the view of the surrounding scenery from that high precipice, is nothing short of spectacular! Love it!

Rewatched the episode last night... I bet Shatner didn't climb all the way to the top of the rock (although he certainly could have.) You only see Kirk from behind on that shot (at 4:30), so I'm thinking that was his stand-in. So, Adam... You outdid the Shat by climbing that rock! (That was insanity BTW!)

I went here with me GF and her friend, one guy decided to venture off on his own (we told him not to) as we hiked around we went back to the car at a meet up time and this guy wasnt there, we waited hours and hours still nothing, we got worried and since this was before cell phones (prob out of service anyways) it was do we go get get help, she couldnt drive , I didnt want to leave her alone and we didnt want him to think we left him. Time seemed to slow. All of a sudden this dingle-berry shows up just b4 dark with a climbing rope he found like nothing happened.
