William Shatner has revealed that his life was a mess when 'Star Trek' went off air in 1969 and he was forced to live in a truck.
The 82-year-old actor, who played Captain James Tiberius Kirk in the science fiction television series, asserted that he ended up living out of his car because of him being cash-strapped, Metro.co.uk reported.

He further added that he managed to find work back east on the straw-hat circuit but he couldn't afford hotels therefore, he lived out of the back of his truck, under a hard shell.
