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) 🔥🔥🔥🇬🇧
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.
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!
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 💪💪💪
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. 😂
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’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!
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
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 😁
Amazing how they do it with much pride! Respect! Here in Sri Lanka if we talk and stand up for my Sinhala people everyone else gets annoyed. We The First Yakkha people are King RAWANA's blood. I wish we had the freedom to speak freely about Rawana.

Могу себе представить,что испытали те,кто хотел захватить или поработить племена маори..У меня,жителя 21-го века,стынет кровь от того,как исполняется ритуал хака..Огромное уважение и хвала новозеландцам..
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!
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.
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

If i was lined up across from those dudes after seeing the haka, I'd be like, "On second thought, i don't feel like leaving the stadium in the back of an ambulance. These dudes look like they wanna kill me, Fk this, I'm going home." 😂😂
I would most definitely be very intimidated of playing against them after watching them all do the Haka! Even the white guys were doing it! Red haired white guys were doing it! So bad ass and such a flex! I love it!❤
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. 🤦🏼♂️ 🤣
I´m from France. I see that the film The Lion King has been translated and is now possible to watch it in Te reo Maori. When that big lion said "Chur bro" did they translate that into Te reo Maori or is "Chur bro" already Te reo Maori?

Right on, I grew up on the island of Oahu and appreciate 🤙
For those of you from overseas who don´t know much about the haka this one is called the Ruatoki Hoki Poki.
Isn't Hoki Poki a flavour of ice cream? Julia Stockings ❤️ 😊
I just love watching that. AND if I were on the other team...I'd already be gone.
