60 year old New Yorker here. My ex husband (we’re still great friends!) was from New Zealand. We lived in London and support The All Blacks and every England team. He introduced me to the culture of “Rugby, Racing, and Beer”! And the Haka. The most important thing about New Zealanders is that they celebrate and respect their indigenous people.
Wrong, Maori are not indigenous, Mori Ori where in New Zealand 2,000 years before Maori arrived, and what happened to them all, when Maori landed they murdered and cannibalised them all, now Maori claim they are indigenous You’ve been fed a lie
I'm a All Black supporter since the time of INGA TUIGAMALA, he was a wing for the All BLACKS from 1991, I was a young boy that time and the only All Blacks supporter in our house....PROUDLY SOUTH AFRICAN🇿🇦
I'M a 75yr old English woman, and i probably shouldn't say this BUT i absolutely love seeing the HAKA i think it is very, very SEXY. (I'M OLD, NOT DEAD) 🔥🔥🔥🇬🇧
For a few years I was privileged to live in NZ, until dad wanted to return to Europe. I feel more like a NZer because I love the Maori culture and way of life! Now at 63, I still pine for NZ and it's original settlers. The Maori are magical, mystical and above all beautiful....much love, from a homesick Pakeha.❤
@@RugbyHighlightsChannel-z1h Thanks mate! By the way....I live in Pommy-land now, but I always support the All Blacks! Even managed to get a shirt: one with a white collar and white elbow pads...lol!
As a faithful and proud Springbok supporter from South Africa, there is nothing as impressive as the Haka. I am a 75 year old lady, and it still excites me. May you be successful in keeping this majestic ritual! Politics are a dirty business these days. I remember the All Blacks doing the Haka in 2005 in South Africa. There was not a South African that did not appreciate the honor the All Blacks showed us - acknowledging us as a proud rugby team. In 2005 we were not exactly welcome on the world stage.
I feel you so badly! I lived there for several years and was absolutely miserable... I can't even begin imagining it now. You and I actually had a few convos on Nextdoor I think, the name sounds familiar anyway. I got out and moved far far away lol.
Ни слова не понимаю, но каждый раз, когда смотрю хаку, мурашки по коже, особенно от All Black, это просто восторг, ужас, трепет, всё вместе. Заряжает силой, позитивом и желанием рвать (в хорошем смысле) всех и всё 💪💪💪
I’ve always cried like a baby during the Haka and never knew why. Fast forward to having gathered my ancestry information - my maternal bloodline is descendant of a Māori princess. Makes watching the Haka even more special now!
it makes me so happy to see these Australian Anglo men connecting with their own tribes through these beautiful Hakas--yes, the Irish, Anglo-Saxons, and Gaelic people had their own versions of Haka before competition/war. You can see the pride and respect in their faces. This type of unity and respect for each other and the generations that came before: beautiful! 🦾💌
Ferme ta gueule il n'y a rien d'anglais là dedans, les anglais prennent le thé avant un combat et les vrais australiens ne vivent pas avec un climatiseur, heureusement les irlandais et les écossais sont là pour relever le niveau des anglais dans ce sport sinon ils joueraient tous au football européen, oui oui ce sport de faibles. 😂
Growing up in UK with English parents I wasn't interested in sports like rugby. However my dad loved football and rugby. The only time he did not cheer for the All Blacks was when they were playing England. The only thing I found interesting about rugby was the Haka. I did not understand the words but there was always a fascination about this Haka ritual . However I have never seen a Haka in which the thumb is used to mime a slit to the throat before. That is serious!
@@Bennix The Hakka is a war challenge, Maori did this before raiding a village, once they conquered, murdered and cannibalised all to celebrate This is what the Hakka is about, no mana here dreamer
39 year-old Chilean, we all need to preserve our cultural traditions, endangered by politics and the corporations greed, that want to destroy our roots. In Chile the Mapuche people is constantly threatened. We all need to protect our people
As a traditional islander greeting, it certainly gets the point across. Personally, I think I'll go with the one that involves nice ladies and flowers, it's a bit less worrisome 😁
love the haka. let's show the world how important our traditions are and continue to pass on our traditions. you can't tell me any politicians don't practice a ceremonial dance in their culture!
What are the 2nd 2 Haka's called? This version is my favorite and the most fearsome imo. Every couple years I go on a haka binge and I see this one and man....I hope this tradition lives forever. Imagine coming across this on a battlefield instead of a televised rugby game. As terrifying as Samurai warriors
I love the haka im british born and bred but am all rugby mad i love watching all the different types of cultural dances and now people are calling for these to be banned this is the problem with britian they would rather erase our british culture and heritage and tradition to please foreigners these are tribal religious and heritage let them keep that and be proud of who and where they are from and dont let anyone or anything change that
I’m a newyorican woman from the Bronx NY, and my ex put me on to the All Blacks Hakas. I did research on the Māori people and traditions myself and I love love love seeing this tradition and I hope it lives on. And like the 75 year old English woman in the comments, I think it is absolutely sexy as well 😏😘
If you did your research then you would know the Hakka was a war challenge, to scare the villagers they where going to murder, and then eat, yes Maori where cannibal, now it’s come to this being romantic The woke have done a great job Have you woken up
Always impressive to see a Haka dance. I feel like this would be how we should present ourselves to the aliens. Maybe without the throat cut gesture in the first one there.
The simultaneous Haka and Sipi Tau from the 2011 RWC should have been in here. It was superb. Of course the ABs obliterated Tonga afterwards, but still

News from the Rotorua Daily Post: "Child, 2, dies after Rotorua driveway accident, family member steals from doctor trying to save child's life." As hospital staff tried to save the life of a 2-year-old boy run over in a Rotorua driveway, a family member swiped a doctor's two phones and a bank card and went on a spending spree. The child died a short time later but Melissa Herewini (A MAORI) had already taken the bank card to four stores in Rotorua and bought alcohol, food, petrol, phone credit and cigarettes. News 24 headline: "Shock over Maori infant brutality" They have been scalded, burned with cigarettes, raped, had bones broken and been beaten unconscious, sometimes to death. Horrific cases of Maori youngsters - some under two years of age - being tortured, abused and KILLED BY MEMBERS OF THEIR OWN FAMILIES Among the grisly headlines that have dominated the nation's media over recent weeks are stories of a 28-month-old Maori girl in a coma after suffering severe head injuries, a broken arm, cuts, bruises and cigarette burns over most of her body. The toddler's 52-year-old grandmother was being held in prison on assault charges. Police in the central North Island town of Carterton are investigating the death a week ago of 23-month-old Maori girl Hinewaoriki Karaitiana-Matiaha who was sexually abused, scalded with hot liquid and beaten before being taken to hospital by relatives. The child, who was put in the care of her grandmother by the Child, Youth and Family Service after consultations with the toddler's family just short of her second birthday, was dead on arrival at Masterton Hospital late on Sunday, July 23. And last week, a coroner in the east coast town of Tauranga found that two-month-old Marcus Te Hira Grey died from a brain haemorrhage following a severe beating by his father. These cases follow the recent release of a report into the gruesome killing last April of four-year-old James Whakaruru, beaten to death by his stepfather for failing to call him Dad. The stepfather had been jailed once for assaulting the boy, but the youngster endured a lifetime of horrific beatings, despite being under the eye of various child welfare agencies, and his hellish existence went unnoticed. The proportion of extreme cases of brutality towards children among the Maori population - which makes up about 15 percent of New Zealand's 3.8 million citizens - is far higher than for any other ethnic group. New Zealand Hearald news headline 29 May, 2024 “Raglan man Simon Terence Hamiora Kereopa drags partner outside naked, pours boiling water over her“ Kereopa ( A MAORI) dragged her outside through the kitchen door by her arms, down the kitchen steps and onto the ground. He then grabbed the kettle, which was just inside the door, and poured the boiling water over the victim - who was naked at the time - directly onto her skin. As he did so, Kereopa told her “you deserve it, and that’s what you get”. He then told her he would reboil the jug and pour it on her face. She ran to seek help from her sister but she was asleep, before running into her daughter’s room and hugging her. Kereopa then went into the room and said, “once you let go, I’m burning your face”. Judge Stephen Clark noted Kereopa’s 17 family violence convictions, eight of which were against the current victim. The man responsible, Simon Terence Hamiora Kereopa, was today jailed for the incident, his ninth conviction against the victim during their 20-year-plus relationship. New Zealand Hearald News 14 Apr, 2024: During a torturous and prolonged night of violence, William James Whata (A MAORI) held his partner down and shoved his fist down her throat with such force that he broke her jaw. The attack came after the 48-year-old had tried strangling his partner multiple times. By the time emergency services arrived, the woman was discovered with numerous injuries including visible damage to her jaw. Now, Whata has been jailed for the violence which started when he went around to the victim’s property on March 4, 2023, despite having been issued a five-day police safety order. A CCTV camera at the property captured most of the events from that night, which began about 10pmwith the pair arguing in the lounge. The victim turned and walked away when Whata grabbed her, put his arm around her neck, and put her in a chokehold. She fell to the ground with Whata on top of her. He let her go and she got to her feet but he chased her back into the lounge where he tried to put another chokehold on her. She managed to push him off but fell to the ground and Whata took the opportunity to put her in another chokehold for about 7 seconds, causing her to go in and out of consciousness. As he held her down, Whata then kneed her in the head and torso four times and continued strangling her for about a minute. Once he let go, she again tried to run for her life, making it outside, but Whata chased her. Some time later he got a knife and followed her around the house with it as she carried out household tasks. He stood guard to ensure she didn’t push her domestic violence button and at one stage cornered her in the kitchen with the knife to her head and punched her. At 1.45am, Whata threw her through the open ranch slider and then held her down on the ground, before closing the door and curtains. While on top of her, he put his hand inside her mouth and pried apart her jaw with downward pressure for about 10 seconds. She begged him to stop and tried to push him off but he continued similar attacks for two more hours. Some time later in the morning she said she needed to use the toilet, where she pressed her panic button and alerted emergency services. St John paramedics discovered she’d suffered a broken jaw due to visible jaw drop, and had multiple cuts and swelling to her face.
Imagine standing across the battle field from these guys. They start chanting. They stomp. They make their war faces. They do all of this to intimidate you. And you simply sling lead down range as you laugh at their silly little dance. 🤦🏼♂️ 🤣

The victim turned and walked away when Whata grabbed her, put his arm around her neck, and put her in a chokehold. She fell to the ground with Whata on top of her. He let her go and she got to her feet but he chased her back into the lounge where he tried to put another chokehold on her. She managed to push him off but fell to the ground and Whata took the opportunity to put her in another chokehold for about 7 seconds, causing her to go in and out of consciousness. As he held her down, Whata then kneed her in the head and torso four times and continued strangling her for about a minute. Once he let go, she again tried to run for her life, making it outside, but Whata chased her. Some time later he got a knife and followed her around the house with it as she carried out household tasks. He stood guard to ensure she didn’t push her domestic violence button and at one stage cornered her in the kitchen with the knife to her head and punched her. At 1.45am, Whata threw her through the open ranch slider and then held her down on the ground, before closing the door and curtains. While on top of her, he put his hand inside her mouth and pried apart her jaw with downward pressure for about 10 seconds. She begged him to stop and tried to push him off but he continued similar attacks for two more hours. Some time later in the morning she said she needed to use the toilet, where she pressed her panic button and alerted emergency services. St John paramedics discovered she’d suffered a broken jaw due to visible jaw drop, and had multiple cuts and swelling to her face.
@@RugbyHighlightsChannel-z1h right on, I’m from the island of Oahu 🤙
I'm a die hard Springbok supporter and if the haka is not involved in rugby, the sport would be poorer for it.
Imagine 10s of 1000 of Hakas performing the Maori war dance before commencing of the war. If that doesn't down the moral of the enemy, then what will!
#epic ☯
Imagine standing across the battle field from these guys. They start chanting. They stomp. They make their war faces. They do all of this to intimidate you. And you simply sling lead down range as you laugh at their silly little dance. 🤦🏼♂️ 🤣
Makes me wonder, how did the game afterwards go?
yes indeed, which haka's worked, and which ones didn't....
Any Haka lead by Buck would be the best
I can think of two others better than #3 the Norm Hewiit 1997 one & the RWC 2007 againt France both face to face.
@@my12spoonswithrose43 yea that 2007 haka was a good one. I’ll have to add that to another video
I bet this was a hard 3 choices to make out of so many option lmao
