People can't believe William Shatner's real age after seeing latest photos of actor

William Shatner is a lot older than people realise

People are saying Star Trek actor William Shatner 'looks incredible' after finding out his age.

It's a fact that we're all going to age and get on in our years, some more graceful than others.

Mortality is certainly something we all have to consider but people have always questioned how some reach old age without... well, looking that old.

For some people it is pretty clear; they eat well, exercise often and don’t have damaging vices, but for others it really is a head scratcher.

William Shatner seems to be one person who has been confusing people as social media users can’t believe how old the actor actually is.

In a post on Reddit on the popculturechat board, people have been demanding to know how the actor looks so youthful.

User NoRelease5370 shared a recent picture of the actor and said: “I may be overstating things, but William Shatner appears much younger and more enthusiastic than the majority of actors from his time.

“I'm not claiming that, like Ralph Macchio, he has defied age. Despite being over ninety-three, he currently appears to be in his 60s or 70s at most.”

Yeah incase you missed it, William Shatner is 93... he is seven years from turning 100 and if we are being honest the man looks like he is in his 60s.

And people in the comment section simply couldn’t believe it.

One person wrote: “ He's NINTY THREE???

“Remove the word actors from that, he looks so much younger than most people his age. He looks about 65

“Some of it is genetics, if you stood my 65-year-old dad next to 93-year-old William Shatner you could definitely convince people they were in the same year at school and Shatner has just had a highly stressful job.”

Another added: “Genuinely astonishing how old he is. He looks incredible."

With a third joking: “I just realized I've considered him to be a 60 something year old actor for basically my entire life. 😂 it was reading this that made me realize he likely hasn't been in his 60s for the last 30+ years.”

Another commented: “I am a caregiver for my 91 year old nana, and based on my experience with her and several of her friends, it is VERY hard for people in their 90s to keep weight on. I think this really contributes to how fantastic he looks”

Well, it's just good to see Shatner live long and prosper.
