  • This is disgusting. The Klingon Empire is nothing like the Reds. As a man who has applied the Klingon code of honor to his daily life I find this video hateful and misguided. I'm going to go throw up now...

  • This was purely awesome! My blood boils right now for some battle! Qapla!!

  • This vid is one of the cleverest things I've seen in quite a while... I just wish I knew what the announcer was saying.  Do some more, tanastvar, and maybe add some English subtitles, so that us mere Earthlings can understand your posts.

  • Qaplaaaaaa!! klingon pride burns in my veins!!

  • GIYGAS SEND THIS

  • This video is too awesome to be seen by starfleet.

  • There should also be a Romulan version of this!

  • What does it mean?! WHAT DOES IT MEAN?!?!?!?!

  • @TigerPride2014 It means, "Biiiirrrdssss! Happy Biiirdds! Always Giggling Biirddss!"

  • reminds me of china xD

  • Qapla'!

  • Search for 'cikcikcik', and watch the video of Turkish children in 1988 singing this song :D

  • It's too happy.

  • I just want to find the song...

  • @fryersoncaptain It's a Turkish children's song, just search for "cikcikcik" on youtube.

  • @MrNoahBennet Ive watched that video several times now. What a strange song. The completely out of sync swaying is funny too. Turkish kids do not have rhythm! Cute though.

  • @JayEey As soon as I saw this video, I said: "I grew up with this song!"

  • @MrNoahBennet THANK YOU! :D

  • @fryersoncaptain You're welcome! :D

  • Super cool!!! Subtitles would be nice, though, added by Starfleet Intelligence.

  • BTW... well done!

  • Dammit Jim! I'm a doctor, not a Klingon!

  • what the heck they said?

  • Robust Russian Culture + The Bushido Honor Code of the Japanese= Klingon

  • heh,so you thought simply using turkish language and a very old childrens' song in the background would make it sound like klingon ? well, it seems all viewers that don't speak turkish bought this cheap trick of yours..

    it'd be more fun and non-racist if you'd have put some kind of humorous elements into video, with revealing the language that u used..

    you should be ashamed of yourself for using star-trek's universal values for your racist intentions..

  • @mamutercan I don't think it was "racism" that prompted him to use that song; he only knew about it because he married into a Turkish family and his wife would often play that song for their kid.

    He began by making them look viking:ish, but decided to "Ottomanize them a bit – make them more civilized, more beautiful, more intelligent".

    ...so really, it is us Norse who should be offended, since apparently we're not civilized, beautiful or intelligent enough to be Klingon ;)

  • @tesseraktik uh, that was pretty explanatory...actually i even donnow why i did act like a lawyer here..it must be youtubing aimlessly for hours that put me in the hands of anger :))) so, it's cool now :)

  • @mamutercan Don't worry about it; YouTube tends to do that to people ;)

  • 0:51 those Stormtroopers are so Awesome

  • Can you imagine if NASA picked this Signal up, HOLY SHIT ! LOL

  • Klingon sounds a bit like Polish sometimes

  • That's fantastic....Qapla!

  • This is how the yenkees see Europe

  • 0:17 89% ottoman empire flag/symbol ;)... + the Janissary

    Qapla'

  • " Something Very REFRESHING About this Video " !

  • NOTE : This should be in the Sequal JJ Abams Film with " Star Trek " . This Is Excellent !

  • Comment removed

  • There's something very... Fallout about this...

  • Why do I watch this video all the time???

  • how come this reminds me of communist china?

  • Romulans were intended to be the recurring antagonists of TOS, but due to the limits of the shows budget kept that from happening, so Gene L. Coon created the Klingons. He depicted them as "swarthy, hard-faced" oriental-type villains. After Coon back in '73 died, Gene Roddenberry claim "he" always intended the Klingons to appear more alien. In TMP, they had an anterior ridge and canine teeth, but were refined in the following features as "omelette" heads. Now, they have become deformed savages.

  • Oh mein Gott, wer werden alle sterben!

    Wenn ein Klingone das sähe würde er das wohl als Kriegserklärung ansehen.

  • Oh mein Gott, wer werden alle sterben!

  • @Accisma They only have four words for colors, anyway. SuD means blue, green AND yellow.

  • Does anyone know where I can get the performance rights to Hamlet in the original Klingon?

    Please send the contact details.

    Thanks

  • arent the andorians supposed to be blue?

  • Well, i am Turkish and i am ok with being a klingon :D

    Adam ince belli bardakta çay içiyo lan

  • I love how the disruptor rifles use the Original Series Sound FX. +10 points.

  • WTF!!!!!

  • bullshit.. exactly.. puting a turkish song for kids and make the klingons talk turkish language... isnt it racism and insult to one nation? maybe we can ask some or european for how to colonised half of wold and make tham slave? anyway fuck you tanastvar

  • @sonsuz51

    Meh i'd quite like being likened to a Klingon, and indeed often am :P

    Different cultures I guess.

  • MERHABA EFFENDIM?!

  • Loosly translated from Turkish MERHABA EFFENDIM=  Hello my Sir / Madam

  • @SargonTube

    I knew that, which is what made me confused.

    This is a Klingon video... and there is an old Turkish man... what's up with that?

  • Klingons are like "Space Nazis"

  • Klingons as Turks? Makes perfect sense as they both are bloodthirsty thugs!

    Merhaba Effendim Qaplah !

  • Maker of this video was married with a Turkish woman. Background music Turkish Child song "Birds". It was from post coup era Militaristic style child song which constantly played by his wife for their kids. Also portraying Klingons as Ottoman Turks was very nice idea. I like it. If rebooted universe use this idea things may interesting.

  • of course :)  they are barbarian like us

  • Whatever the hell it was that I just saw--it was awesome.

  • Not just birds, birds, earth, forests and the creatures live in the forests. It is about the joy of life :)))

  • Is this a pun on North Korean propaganda? :?

  • @NodDisciple1 North Korean, Chinese, something like that, definitely some kind of communist propaganda. It was awesome, but the spoken word component needs to be re-done. The voice actor needs to emphasize the phlemmy gutteral sounds more.

  • @Etimos Yeah, needs more phelgm, like Walken needs more cowbell. XD

  • I knew it was going to be Full of Win the moment I saw a targ- a Targ accompanied by happy vintage music...

  • See how even children appreciate how our Birds of Prey spread peace and understanding to the unenlightened peoples of the galaxy. :p

  • 1:26 Dude! Use a tounge scraper!

  • Klingons rule!!!

  • background song is turkish childern song and about the fucking birds :)

  • @zzzterenkoy Haha, that's a coincidence :) Klingon is heavily based on Turkish.

  • Awsome!

  • WTF was that?

  • Zackdorn at 0:59 - wicked!

  • Okay, this is ridiculously great enough to make me want to learn Klingon.

  • :D very funny but the Klingons were more like the Russians and Romulans represented the Chinese during TOS's run all and all awesome video!!!!!  :D

  • brilliant work.  grats to the designer(s)

  • WTF

  • I like the video.... but, it's made too much like an old communist China propaganda film (or any communist propaganda film for that matter).

  • thats super perceptive of you. i bet neither the original creator or anyone watching it would have made such and obscure and unintended connection.

  • yeah well... I did live in Beijing for a couple of years and you can still find that stuff in the internet there... so not as obscure as one might think.

  • @cpttim79 is this a response to something

    what are you saying

    why are you saying it

    explain

  • @s3ksee Dude, that was the POINT.

  • @s3ksee I think that's the idea...

  • That was the idea...

  • ne mutlu klingonum diyene!!!

  • selam aga turkish people

  • merhaba efendim mi? yeniçeri mi? türk!?

  • klingonlarda türk çıktı.

  • This was very professional in quality and execution. Outstanding work. Does anyone know who did this and how it was created? Looks like a professional animation studio put the whole thing together but I would not be surprised if it was just one person.

  • Very cool but is it possible to get an english version, or at least subtitles for us fedrats? :P

  • this reminds me of soviet russia

  • Klingons have the smallest genitals in the galaxy of any biped. This with their inability to control their bowel movements have made them a very dangerous species indeed.

  • FUCK YOU

  • What The Fuck...

  • lol this reminds me of the soviet union

  • @spidey39306

    Moar like China

  • The lettering that comes up, it says "dominate" and "success" at 0:36. At 1:16, it says something like "The *relatively major fight-bottle?* strengthens the bet'leth."

  • 1:18

    gezdiği yerleri bir bir sayıyor

    gördüğü şeyleri anıyor kuşlar

    yepyeni bir güne selam duruyor

    alemin haline şaşıyor kuşlar

  • That is just brilliant !

  • Klingon women are hot.

  • This seems more like communist propaganda then imperial Klingon propaganda. When I think about Klingons I think about blood, swords, and exploding ships not children singing,

  • this is a fucking turkish propaganda damn they are pretty turkish

  • That's the whole idea: Not to serve you with just more of the same star trash you're used with, but to explore the reasonable implications of what Turkish culture would be like.

    I mean, Klingon culture.

  • Damn Klingons.

  • Holy freaking crap!!

  • This. Is. AWESOME!

  • Klingons were saying that Enterprise should be hauled as garbage. I guess it finally happened here. They destroyed it for a transport mission as garbage.

  • and lyrics are about...BIRDS man..ahahah :)

  • Like a bird of prey? :p

  • OMG Those fraking Klingons are talking in Turkish. That background song is in Turkish too.

  • Suv'wI'mey Sum'Il!

  • Great effect of making the sound look old. It gave me the same chilling effect as those dharma videos from Lost, with the out of tune elevator songs.

  • Klingons combine two things nerds love...

    Vikings and Samurai...

  • I said they were samurai bikers...but i guess all the same...

  • There's definitely some Norse influence in there, the poetry, the great feast in heaven, the glory of battle, the legendary ballads of Kahless where he does things like create the sea with his tears and make weapons from his hair, fierce female warriors fighting alongside males...

  • hah! indeed..good points!..dunno how many viking babes were doing much fighting along side the men though back in the day...as you probably know, the vikings get a bad wrap as simply barbarians.

  • Anyone have a translation?

  • Everyone done feeling superior than the other? ... Good - awesome vid man! I look forward to more.

  • now THAT is funny..well said mate...youre absolutely right!

  • Pretty cool how they fused TOS and TNG Klingons with original uniforms and feel with TNG foreheads.

  • Can't wait for the Series! ;)

  • Klingons could not produce the fighting power they supposedly have, unless they also valued the reason, peace and productivity that could create that power. In so doing, their entire culture would have to utterly reject warlike conquest.

    Of Course, without the Klingons, as envision by the philosophically defunct scriptwriters, there would be half as many Star Trek episodes.

  • explain Lucy...in what way were the writers philosophically defunct?

    i know everyone is entitled to their opinion..i am honestly curious as to why you say that.

  • Looks like an Obama ad.

  • well said..

  • warning: Do Not Feed The Trolls

  • How the hell did you guys go from a sci fi flick about kilngins to talking about the Ottoman Empire???You want political bullshit take it to one of those vids. For the love of donuts keep out of the last place most people go to escape this bullshit. BTW great vid sorry for the rant but I am sick of every vid being connected to someones little pet agenda.

  • translation coming soon?

  • part 1 of 2 We are members of the Klingon Empire! We have argued with many dozen planets and we expand to many more every day Do you want to influence the planet? But how? Lets go, we are coming, join us! Contribute to the enjoyment of Klingon planets The Empire is good for everyone The Civilization brings wealth, competitions and good food. Our Klingon "yeni cheri" are brave, many and fair. Take spoils from the invasions, and many solders join the Empire
  • part 2 of 2

    The Empire powerfully protects the important planet from the influence and possible decaying that the dictator (brings.. .does something with)

    Put down your small weapons

    Open your hearts

    and join the Klingon Empire.

    Get ready but conquer

    Get justice now!

  • At the risk of coming across ala Comic Book Guy...why does Kor lick a Alternate Universe Federation "Planet Stabber" Knife?

    shouldnt he have the....(thank GOD I dont know the name of that Klingon knife...THAT would be pathetic.)...you know...that mean-looking knife with the open blood groove and the two extra mini-knives that flick out of it....THAT thing...

    inquiring minds want to know...

    cuz Trek is a cult..and knowing all the details..is what brings us together....dont deny it.

  • I believe the Klingon knife you're referring to (God help me) is the d'k tahg (sp?). But props to you for noticing what kind of knife he's actually holding. I had just assumed it was a d'k tahg until your comment made me take a closer look.

  • Props for me being a geek! haah! thanks though!...;)

  • LOL! It looks like modern communist China mixed with the ancient Mongolian empire!

  • Why did you use a Turkish children's song on this video? Why do those guys speak Turkish? Why do the Klingons look like stereotypical pseudo Turkish / Chinese exaggerations? I asked you these through PM so that in case of a sincere mistake you may save yourself from embarassment. You avoided my PM, proving yourself to be aware of those racist remarks.

    What are your intentions on making a racist mockery out of Star Trek, tricking sincere fans and abusing them to conceal your racism?

  • Perhaps it is because the author needed some "non-english" children's music as a background, and actual Klingon children's music is hard to come by.

    I think you're being a bit overly sensitive. It is highly unlikely that this was a veiled attempt to cast aspersions upon the character of the Turkish people, and more likely a case of using what resources one has available.

  • What happened with the Armenians is that they were exiled after betraying their fellow Ottomans, and extreme caution was taken to prevent them from suffering even monetary losses. All these are well recorded on Ottoman, Russian, and British archives. Turkey has always been eager to found an international commitee of historians, researchers and anyone else who wants to participate, but Armenians (tricked by emperialists) avoid that and try to keep it political.

  • ... The issue is deep rooted really, and won't end before Turkey runs out of valuable underground minerals.

    Thanks for bearing with me, best regards.

  • yeah...but..exiled...into the desert though right?...starved women and children ..to uhm...death..yeah?

    this is pretty well documented...you talk about Imperialism..but..hey..the Turks did it too...they wanted a homogeneous country..as many countries did..Russia, Greece, and so on..Niall Ferguson has a book, and a video on YT called War Of The World...check it out.

    but, you wont like it..cuz he accuses Turkey of the same things other empires did..ethnic cleansing.

  • Ottoman Empire never tried ethnic cleansing or even assimilation of conquered countries. People were allowed to practice their own religions and keep their traditions. The Empire would not be able to expand so much so fast, without justice and equality of everyone against the law.

    Armenians were not sent into desert, people had actually been living in those areas (towns and villages). Ottoman Government did their best for the well being of Armenians. All their losses of property was compensated.

  • Imperialist claims consist of so-called "memories", but the truth can easily be seen through Ottoman, Armenian, British, German, American, Russian documents. Turkey is all open for an extensive historical research.

    In fact, just after Ottoman Empire was invaded by allied powers, hundreds of Ottoman officials were sent to prison in Malta, and Ottoman archives were plundered for two and a half years in the hopes of finding any evidence of systematical crime, but couldn't find any such evidence.

  • Bunu söylemek için yeni hesap mı açtın? Karın ağrın neyse adam gibi söyle.

  • Bunda absürd olan nedir anlamadım? İlk önce kendi hesabından cevap yaz. Yoksa zaten konuşacak birşeyin yok. Yazdıklarıma cevap bulamıyorsan saçmalamaktan vazgeç.

  • It was a Caliphate. That is crime enough. It deserved to be destroyed. All theocracies deserve to be destroyed.

  • ok..i like your cheese..just bought some Hellim....its like my favourite...but Im sorry i have to disagree with you on the Armenian thing....it shouldnt come as any suprise that even a country of civilized intelligent gentle people like Turks..are capable of genocide...anymore than anyone else is...im sorry friend...i dont believe you.

  • I think you are reading into this far too much. Also it's terrible reasoning to say that silence is indicative of sinister motives.

  • 1. Those domed buildings are classic Klingon architecture as seen on TNG and the movies, and of course they look a bit Indian because that was the original inspiration for them in the series!

    2. Oh I am sure that all Turks have large cranial ridges. Your attempted point here is just retarded, I don't even need to explain it.

    3. You realize that the Klingons were originally used as an analog to the "red scourge" the Soviets and Communist Chinese. Hence the asianesque appearance.

  • Uhm...The "Knife Guy" was a characature of John Colicos who played "Kor" a Kilngon general on the show,...he was Greek Canadian..and its a damn good drawing of him..if you watch the episode;

    "Errand Of Mercy" you will see what a good job the animator did.

    They also claimed the made the Klingons darker in order to get a better makeup effect. fyi...dont read so much into it.

  • the fact that i know that as well makes me a little sad. lol!

  • lol! like i said-ultimately,its cultist-and 4 us-2 know all the details of a thing-makes it so (pardon the pun).

    Religious cultists quote "chapter & verse" of the bible,Koran or what have you-Sci-Fi cultists can name the guy who played the Chief Ugnaught-but not their Congressman-its no less pathetic,which is why I attempt to limit my TV-and why the people I most admire are focussed on their own lives-know WHO they are..and what they want...that said..I love how Kirk beats the crap outta folks.

  • I'm a huge Trekkie and I WRITE my congressman about foreign policy issues!

  • I stand corrected then good-sir...

    lets watch Kirk drop-kick someone!

  • You've got it, just as soon as I finish studying Arabic!

  • This is absolutely brilliant!

  • If this is fan made its great. Wouldn't it be great if it was a Paramount sanctioned cartoon series... though if it was, they wouldnt have used the audio from that cikcikcik video.

    Maybe an animation studio or producer is trying to build support for a pitch to Paramount?

    It seems like this would be a mature and sophisticated approach, rather than a saturday morning kids show.

  • the original song can be listened searching "cikcikcik" in youtube.

    or using shortcut:

    watch?v=dm6xySTvzu4

  • This reminds me of North Korean propaganda. Do we have a translation?

  • We are members of the Klingon Empire! We have quarrelled (or made war???) with many dozen planets and we expand to many more every day. Do you want to influence the planet? But how? Let's go, we are coming, join us! Contribute to the enjoyment of Klingon planets. The Empire is good for everyone. The Civilization brings wealth, competitions and good food.Klingon warriors are brave, many and fair.Take spoils from the invasions. many soldiers join the Empire... (continued)

  • (continued)... The Empire powerfully protects the important planet from the influence and possible decaying that the dictator (brings ..???.). Put down your inferior weapons. Open your hearts and join the Klingon Empire.Get ready to conquer (or be conquered???).Get justice now!

  • I gather we still haven't sussed out exactly what this is supposed to be for? My own impression is if this is some kind of enviro thing it must be as interpreted by Klingons -- such as, fight pollution by getting rid of non-Klingons, that kind of thing.

  • Oh hey, A Youtube video that has comments regarding politics that have nothing to do with the video.

    Internet at it's finest.

  • Yes it is kind of strange. The vid is funny in a big way but the politics come up because Soviet and Nazi propaganda style images are used in the video. Used to great effect, I might add.

    Of course it doesn't help that there are so many ignorant people spouting quasi political crap that they know nothing about. Such as rageohol, who needs to rage and drink less and read more.

  • yes..come off your YOUR mountain and enlighten us..cuz..of course ONLY YOU may have an opinion.

    twat.

  • It's true that Soviet Communism and German Nazism had a number of things in common but the differences were very great.

    The 23 Point Program that Hitler was elected on read like a communist manifesto. Living standards and work conditions greatly improved for German workers but the Nazis were great defenders of private property and the profit motive.

    The brown shirts believed the socialist parts of the 23 point program and were destroyed for the sake of the army and the industrialists.

  • Q'PLA!

  • I don't think this is for some enviro group. Klingons aren't the best green mascots, what with the whole blowing up their own moon thing. Might be for an ARG, like ilovebees.
