Adam Savage, co-host of Discovery Channel’s Mythbusters, bought Kirk’s captain’s chair on ebay. “I spent to much on it, because I’m a jerk and didn’t do my research.” He said in a video on the Tested Youtube Channel.

In the 37 minute and 20 second video Savage and Jeremy Williams explain the problems with the chair Savage purchased and then go about fixing it - including rewiring the chair’s electronics, lights, adding details to the chair that both make the chair more true to the show and add some interesting extras that may be cause for die-hard trekkies to fight about how true to the show the chair really is.



Some of the changes made to the chair also include making it more comfortable to sit in, so that you can get the proper slouch to seat ratio. As well as adding LED lights, a subwoofer in the base of the chair that plays the original series battle song and the theme song. As well as a drawer in the base of the chairs that stores props for easy access on your next five year mission.

You can see more behind-the-scene shots of the build on Tested.com.
