They had a comfy chair for him to sit in but he spent most of his time pacing back and forth on the stage like a caged tiger while he answered questions and cracked us up with funny stories about his life. What a legend. Also, I highly recommend listening to his audiobooks. He narrated them and they're very entertaining to listen to.

@1977TA 6 месяцев назад

I think the secret to his long life is he keeps working. If he had retired several years ago, he'd likely already be gone. The worst thing that can happen to a person is getting reduced to sitting around in a lawn chair everyday with no purpose in life. Society has been conditioned to think that we work a certain number of years then retire. Shatner is proving that being old does not mean you have to stop and sit around waiting to die.
