You punch the opponent in the gut, and when they bow over, you bring both fists down onto their back. Someone up there referred to it as the "Double-ax handle."

But I also noticed there are some shows where you can clearly see the stunt man take over. The stuntmen often look nothing like Shatner. But my favorite is the killer laugh that Bones used. If you go bakc to the episode where Jack the Ripper alien thing takes over Scotty....I think the title was Wold in the Fold....if you watch at the end when Kirk does his classic over the shoulder back flip, watch Bones. He's sittting there with arms folded, laughing. I noticed it on a screencaps section, when looking for pictures for drawing. I noticed there was no flip over his shoulder.
