American football fan; this guy had the greatest stiff-arm EVAH. He could just throw guys out of his way. I an new to rugby but Jonah is the GOAT (Greatest Of All Time).
I am english and i can watch highlights of those tries against us again and again and again and not get bored. he changed what it meant to be a back and a big reason why so many rugby Players now have such well pais careers. beast on the field, gentleman off it. a true legend
666Crenado Michael Jordan will always be more famous and well known then Jonah Lomu, Michael Jordan is a better athlete and MJ played basketball before Lomu
Remember a lot of those international moments like it was yesterday. The guy was one of the most memorable things I've seen in the game. Beautiful and terrible at the same time. A true great.
Lomu scored as many tries with this speed, step and swerve as he did with pure brute force. He was an incredible player. God I wish that someday someone invents something that can make a person young again. I'd kill to watch Lomu in his prime again.
6'3"/190cm. 10.89 seconds 100m at 118kg/260 lbs age 17yrs old during college/highschool athletics. As an allblack lomu was 6'5"/196cm 120kg+ His fastest timed 100m was 10.65 seconds. His 40m/43.7 yards dash was 4.3 - 4.4 seconds. Fastest ever allblack over the 10m mark. I never called him jonah i called him cuzzy lol. His mum Hepi and my dad Feteleni were second cousins. Dads from ha apai tungua tonga so jonahs my fanau/family.
RIP Jonah, really sad day, Greatest player i've seen, even had pleasure of watching him up close when he came to Cardiff at end of his career, these videos are amazing.
From all the videos I've seen about Jonah Lomu, this is by far the best! Great choice of tune.That along with the ending combination might have been the deal break. Thank you for creating and posting.
From all of Australia RIP Jonah u Legend :( Some ppl were born with gifts that the ordinary ones could only dream of, Jonah you had gifts that the elite could only Dream Of, Sadly gone but Never Forgotten
One of the most incredible players to ever run with a ball, run for the line, and run through anybody that was brave enough to attempt to stop him reaching it. And a good bloke who overcame a lot of adversity to boot. It takes a very special player to be a king amongst All-Blacks.
After watching both parts I kinda feel sorry for the guys getting in the way. By 1997 I'd have just let him run past and save myself a trip to hospital. ....or the morgue.
mate, these are great vids, thank for allowing me to relive the legend! Such a beast yet sublime speed and step. Sad to see such a talent succumb to cancer so early in his career.
I am so sorry to say this but Jonah Lomu has recently died. I am so so so very upset, he was my hero! Please spread the sad news. It is just coming to light here in NZ.
purely as a rugby player jonah makes me proud to be a kiwi. but that is only a small part of jonah. his battle and triumph over adversity makes me burst with an amazing mix of pride and humility. if anything ever gets you down or backed into a corner it only takes 10 minutes of watching jonah to realise nothing can stop you.
My daughter & I have been studying New Zealands History , Tonight The Haka War Cry , Dance . Challenge, So obviously as we progressed I told her The Haka is Always performed before the All Blacks play , then straight away I remembered the BEAST , the Legend Jonah Lomu oooooOOOOOOOWWWWWW !! This Machine can put hairs on your chests (even the Ladies pmsl !) , had to share these pt1 & 2, fookin Awesome, Enjoy Guy's :)
an absolutely brutal runner of the ball. Will there ever be another jonah. only time will tell. some really good memories jonah and im eternally greatful
I have never seen such a big sportsmen in my life. It's including all the idols nowadays in tennis, football, handball, waterball, volleyball, rugby, golf, etc. I think he is the man of the XXth century, really. As more as I can watch him again, he is more an idol of me.Just incredible guy. I'm a very lucky man, that I have seen him on the TV by LIVE. He was like an outstanding parson on the courts. Poor England had absolutely no chance. Sorry. Thta WC was one of my best moment in my life. All Blacks team was equal to the Earth Team really......
Excellent, Lomu was Power, Speed and Skill. I remember watching Auck play Counties in the early days, Lomu was a rising star Kirwan was on his way out, and the two literally cancelled each other out, two different type players, both AB legends. Same thing happened in a AB trial in the 90s I think aswell. I miss Lomu, his carreer was way too short! Thanks for the vid!!!
dont know if the music was sync'd to do that but get shivers everytime i watch 2:15 - absolutely brilliant take and just runs straight past them. how the hell is he so quick at 18 stone?!
Never get sic of watchin footage of Jonah, what an awesome sight!! Loved the vid bro, really good, nice quality! Had 2 watch them like 3 times. Could you maybe make up a mix of Christian Cullen in his prime?? But thanks for the effort cause that was choice!!!
Incredible player, fast and sooo much power. Don't know who would rank as the best player ever, but Jonah's gotta be right up there with them. Thanks for sharing bro...
What a legend. The type of player that only comes around once in a lifetime. Some of us are fortunate it was our lifetime. OP, thanks for the compilation but if I have one small criticism, it is the captions....they are lame.
i went to Wesley college a year behind Jonah and he was a beast on the field , too bad their were no smart devices or some sort of social media back then, cause believe me it would have been a far better highlight reel cause the team also gave him the ball.
Awesome! Will Carling (ex-England Captain) once called Lomu a "freak" - hugely powerful but lightning quick. I remember him running over the top of Tony Underwood (England) all too well! One of the all time greats.
hey men I like your two videos about Lomu, you've done a great job, and i'm proud of u because people have to know who was Lomu and how he played, and u allow them.
Just wanted to say, there was an annotation saying that a winger on the other team was scared, but what he was doing was a tactical move that a defensive player uses in a two on one situation where you run backwards waiting for either support from your team or for the offensive player to pass it to make a one on one, because giving up twenty yards is better than giving up a try
No worries mate. I do agree with you. I too waited for him to get the ball in space, best rugby moments ever. It was exciting to see who was gona get flattened. Take nothing away, the man IS a living legend and will always stand out in my mind as the best there is to shred defences and score tries.
3:50 one of the most memorable moments in Rugby history... The Maori side-step, no side-step, straight over the top of him. No-one else but Lomu can do it...
The best part of Jonah wasn't his incredible pace, his immense strength or his side-stepping ability. It is that he is one of the most humble and down to earth sports heros of late. I met him, he's the man off the field too...
For those who are just being introduced to Jonah Lomu. To get an idea of how good this man is: "He is a freak, and the sooner he leaves rugby the better.” Those were the words of England captain Will Carling, after watching the 20 year old Jonah Lomu dismantle his England side, in the semi-final of the 1995 World Cup. -Article by Captain Fantabulous (bleacherreport.(COM)) He was offered a 20 million dollar contract with the Dallas Cowboys even though he had never played american football.
lol oh how i remember the feeling of "oh crap" when i saw the great mans name on the All Blacks team selection to face England. I would imagine this happened all over the world. Just the single most amazing player to have graced the game, players have moments of brilliance but Jonah did this in almost every game. Thanks for posting.
I spent most of my childhood hearing... "... and they go wide to Lomu, Lomu, LOMU, LOMU SCORES!!!". I spent countless hours re-enacting what happened to Mike Catt (at 3.47) in my backyard. He truly was the greatest rugby player.
@2:51 any normal human being would have been totally disoriented and grounded. Instead the legend gets past 8(!!!) guys, 5 of whom are floored, and scores in the most amazing display of control and power I've ever seen. My thoughts with his family and friends at this time.
There are numerous examples of Jonah passing to other players, especially right at the try line. But he has even said that the team tactics when he was playing was to get the ball to him because look at what he can do!!
Weight of a prop, Height of a lock, Pace of a winger, not to mention his kidney problem only had him playing at 66% of his full potential, what more can you ask for... LEGEND!
Bloody hell...the way he just steamrolls through the defense...like he wants em to be there so he can just have a go at their nuts. Pure athlete. Magnificent speed.
this is why he was a special guest during the rwc 2011opening. the absolute mantis rugby player. makes me so proud to be NZ'er. go ALL BLACKS! our boys will bring it home this year
RIP Big Fulla, greatest of all time for sure.
he was a legend
Yea but I mean he was actually sick
American football fan; this guy had the greatest stiff-arm EVAH. He could just throw guys out of his way. I an new to rugby but Jonah is the GOAT (Greatest Of All Time).
The force was strong with this one.
It definitely was Billy. Great comment
Props to the guy who did this video!
RIP, Jonah Lomu - one of the best athletes ever
I am english and i can watch highlights of those tries against us again and again and again and not get bored. he changed what it meant to be a back and a big reason why so many rugby Players now have such well pais careers. beast on the field, gentleman off it. a true legend
You'll never be forgotten. Legend on and off the field. 12/05/1975 - 18/11/2015. RIP Jonah
When he bulldozed Mike Catt at the end, the headline read "Lomu runs over a cat".
125 kgs and could run 100m in 11 seconds, great footwork too (if he needed it). RIP legend.
LEGEND, A MONSTER! CRAZY BIOLOGY! Rippedand robbed by NZ like many other champs
in 10 seconds
that my friends is the Micheal Jordan of Rugby
zin zan played a when you could hit thepub before and after the game mate
No, Michael Jordan is the Jonah Lomu of basketball
666Crenado Michael Jordan will always be more famous and well known then Jonah Lomu, Michael Jordan is a better athlete and MJ played basketball before Lomu
@@TbYolo what are you on about? he never said Lomu was more iconic, your clearly the one that knows nothing
Stokey Junior Shut up
Remember a lot of those international moments like it was yesterday. The guy was one of the most memorable things I've seen in the game. Beautiful and terrible at the same time.
A true great.
Lomu scored as many tries with this speed, step and swerve as he did with pure brute force. He was an incredible player. God I wish that someday someone invents something that can make a person young again. I'd kill to watch Lomu in his prime again.
Thank you Lomu for what you gave us. Your the King of the game.
there will never be a player like him ever again!
I agree. :(
6'3"/190cm. 10.89 seconds 100m at 118kg/260 lbs age 17yrs old during college/highschool athletics. As an allblack lomu was 6'5"/196cm 120kg+

196cm height
95kg at 17
I have not seen this for ages, with out a doubt the best rugby player of all time
I remember during the 95 Rugby World Cup watching Lomu's tries over and over again. They never get tiresome.
Get the same chills watching this as I did seeing the games live as a kid. RIP :(
Please keep running fast in the rugby fields of heaven. You won't be forgotten Big Jonah :(
RIP Jonah, really sad day, Greatest player i've seen, even had pleasure of watching him up close when he came to Cardiff at end of his career, these videos are amazing.
Fuiste el Mejor de todos los tiempos y mostraste ser una gran persona! Descansa en paz Jonah!!!
Excellent!
I don't think we in NZ realise just how frickin' awesome Jonah was OR how he is still THE face of rugby for so many outside of NZ
Respect to that unstoppable man. Will never be forgotten..
Jonah Forever
RIP Jonah! =(
+Kairangi B greatest rugby player ever! R.I.P Jonah
From all the videos I've seen about Jonah Lomu, this is by far the best! Great choice of tune.That along with the ending combination might have been the deal break. Thank you for creating and posting.

That's why you will never be a top athlete/sportsman u have no heart.
Charbel Belfort it's called self preservation
Charbel Belfort you're 100 % right lol
RIP JONAH
mate, these are great vids, thank for allowing me to relive the legend! Such a beast yet sublime speed and step. Sad to see such a talent succumb to cancer so early in his career.
I had forgotten how quick he was !
His changes in speed, and strong step while holding it wide open was awesome!! Massive power.
I am so sorry to say this but Jonah Lomu has recently died. I am so so so very upset, he was my hero! Please spread the sad news. It is just coming to light here in NZ.

Absolutely EPIC video. Man ! What talent ! Too bad he had health issue. The best EVER !
Never get tired of watching these videos...awesome work!
RIP, YOU WERE AND WILL ALWAYS BE THE GREATEST RUGBY PLAYER. LEGENDS NEVER DIE
serious quality tunes in both part 1 and 2... really go well with great a compilation of an awesome player..!
All the best in the new life that awaits us all....
Thank you, Lomu, for giving us your best. You are a Legend and you've set a new bar for rugby wingers. You are well remembered...RIP xx
My daughter & I have been studying New Zealands History , Tonight The Haka War Cry , Dance . Challenge,
So obviously as we progressed I told her The Haka is Always performed before the All Blacks play , then straight away I remembered the BEAST , the Legend Jonah Lomu oooooOOOOOOOWWWWWW !!
This Machine can put hairs on your chests (even the Ladies pmsl !) , had to share these pt1 & 2, fookin Awesome, Enjoy Guy's :)
Always remember, the Polynesian and Melanesians' physical prowess is only bettered by their humanity and general good nature.
Well said ;)
LEGEND rugby hasnt been the same without u bro, still remember the goosebumps watchn u as a kid, miss that feeling
"The Best Rugby Player Ever!!" You said it ;-)
an absolutely brutal runner of the ball. Will there ever be another jonah. only time will tell. some really good memories jonah and im eternally greatful
3:55 he probably doesn't even remember playing in that game....
....Or his own name for that matter.
Some athletes are so great, not only as athletes but as human beings, that they transcend sports entirely.
Jonah was and will always be one such.
2.20 he fucking puts a chip in !! for fucks sake !
Loved it. Brilliant player - big bloody player!
Also liked the music on both videos. Thanks for that :)
R.I.P
Greatest rugby player of all time and playing in the greatest sports team of all time
big lol for the WTF just hapend
+Mohamed Yourgo lol,. that was funny af..
he was a legende...*i am 100%seker...*
I have never seen such a big sportsmen in my life. It's including all the idols nowadays in tennis, football, handball, waterball, volleyball, rugby, golf, etc. I think he is the man of the XXth century, really.

Same thing happened in a AB trial in the 90s I think aswell. I miss Lomu, his carreer was way too short! Thanks for the vid!!!
the way he hand-off's like a boss every time someone comes within close proximity of him is just incredible.
I love the last try. He's falling over and still batters the England fullback. Quality stuff from a true legend.
dont know if the music was sync'd to do that but get shivers everytime i watch 2:15 - absolutely brilliant take and just runs straight past them. how the hell is he so quick at 18 stone?!
Never get sic of watchin footage of Jonah, what an awesome sight!! Loved the vid bro, really good, nice quality! Had 2 watch them like 3 times. Could you maybe make up a mix of Christian Cullen in his prime?? But thanks for the effort cause that was choice!!!
Incredible player, fast and sooo much power. Don't know who would rank as the best player ever, but Jonah's gotta be right up there with them. Thanks for sharing bro...
Wish you were still playing. love seeing you play
What a legend. The type of player that only comes around once in a lifetime. Some of us are fortunate it was our lifetime. OP, thanks for the compilation but if I have one small criticism, it is the captions....they are lame.
For the short amount of time that he played, its one name that for myself will always be remebered.
i went to Wesley college a year behind Jonah and he was a beast on the field , too bad their were no smart devices or some sort of social media back then, cause believe me it would have been a far better highlight reel cause the team also gave him the ball.
Awesome! Will Carling (ex-England Captain) once called Lomu a "freak" - hugely powerful but lightning quick. I remember him running over the top of Tony Underwood (England) all too well!
One of the all time greats.
His running style was awesome. Was like a freight train when he got going. If only we could have him back now.
That last try is and always will be one of the greatest moments in NZ sporting history. Such a memorable one.
hey men I like your two videos about Lomu, you've done a great job, and i'm proud of u because people have to know who was Lomu and how he played, and u allow them.

I don't think I would say he is the 'best ever' there are to many talented guys to chose from, but, he was MAGIC to watch NO ONE can deny that
Bravo Bravo. I first saw JL play in the HK 7s in 1994. Outstanding.
David . Wales
RIP and thank you for the memories.
No worries mate. I do agree with you. I too waited for him to get the ball in space, best rugby moments ever. It was exciting to see who was gona get flattened. Take nothing away, the man IS a living legend and will always stand out in my mind as the best there is to shred defences and score tries.
i wish i couldve seen him play. he is the best ever and we may never see another like him
Man, he scored a lot of ind tries. Hugely underrated in NZ and adored by the Nthern hemisphere. Why isn't being used as the face of the WC 011?
3:50 one of the most memorable moments in Rugby history...
The Maori side-step, no side-step, straight over the top of him. No-one else but Lomu can do it...
3:52 onwards the most iconic moment in International rugby without a doubt
RIP Jonah Lomu (May 12, 1975 - November 18, 2015), aged 40
You will always be remembered as a legend.
Thanks for putting this together, fantastic
Lomu’s legs were always turbo spooling!
Once boost hit, GAME OVER!
you can only be as good as the man next to you, great balls and plays set this man up, and he tops it off with his amazing skill.
The best part of Jonah wasn't his incredible pace, his immense strength or his side-stepping ability. It is that he is one of the most humble and down to earth sports heros of late. I met him, he's the man off the field too...
Rest Easy Big Guy. Thank You For All The Memories!

Without doubt not just the greatest sportsman but also a great man!!!
i remeber the 95 RWC and the sence of anticipation when he got the ball was electric and what he did with it was unreal he is beast
Truly a nice bloke too, met him at my friends house in Wales on a few occasions. Can tell a good boyhood tail too.
RIP...u were always and still is my favorite player
I spent most of my childhood hearing... "... and they go wide to Lomu, Lomu, LOMU, LOMU SCORES!!!". I spent countless hours re-enacting what happened to Mike Catt (at 3.47) in my backyard. He truly was the greatest rugby player.

Il bouscule un adversaire ... Il y en a deux où trois qui tombent ! Simply the best !
Bloody hell...the way he just steamrolls through the defense...like he wants em to be there so he can just have a go at their nuts. Pure athlete. Magnificent speed.
we will never see a player as good as him
Thanks for posting. Lomu is the best!
this is why he was a special guest during the rwc 2011opening. the absolute mantis rugby player. makes me so proud to be NZ'er. go ALL BLACKS! our boys will bring it home this year
one of the coolest vids i ever seen in my life. mad props to horipinoy
That little chip n chase at 2:17 was mad crazy. You the man Jonah!
Love how he uses Mike Catt (number 15) to balance himself at 3:47. Jonah Lomu. the original Hadron Collider.
