Guy Williams has stopped racism in specific areas, tried to find who killed a magical dolphin, tried to help a woman who didn't get her twenty dollars back, got his underwear cleaned, and travelled all across the country of New Zealand to do so. Absolute legend mate. Chur the boy, the guy, Guy Williams.
What does 'chur' mean? I feel like it's some Kiwi secret...
@@ItsNotMeitsYouTu8e chur
@@ItsNotMeitsYouTu8e it's just like "nice". Chur. But don't treat it like an adjective, it's just... Chur.
@@ItsNotMeitsYouTu8e It means everything. It means nothing. Chur is life. Chur is death.
space cowboy it means thanks not nice
He got stabbed 6 times and is still hugging gangs what a legend
cameron gresty and has Black Power Tattooed on His left shoulder.
hes prob the local prez
@@acejay1 So? Don't you get the concept of judging someone by the content of their character? He could of got that when he was a teenager and has changed since, he could of got it because black power looked after him when he was young and vulnerable. Why does it matter though?
Might be a silly question (I’m Aussie 🤷🏼♂️) but what’s wrong with black power?
@@thecountysfinest
its a gang!
come to blockhouse bay, there’s bacon hanging on the clothesline of an old folks home up my road and it’s hella mysterious
The real question is why did they cut down the trees that were next to countdown
I asked
I love this country 😂😂😂
Ikr fucking mystery
Blockhouse bay hella mysterious. Havnt seen walking man around for awhile. Or two husky dude.
One of my earliest memories is on holidays in Opinoni. These kids were playing on the wharf and one fell in fully clothed. My dad went straight into hero action mode and like a flash was down to his undies ready for the big rescue. Then someone goes 'it's alright he can swim'. We watched him casually swim to shore with dad standing there in his undies.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 yr daďs a legend 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That needs to be on boy 2
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@Torax_ ha-yeah something like that.
This series does a better tourism campaign than that "good morning world " shit.
♥️🇳🇿
It's on my list to go!
brittenv1000 you must! The Hokianga is a wonderful place to cruise and be!
Yeah right, just make sure you don't get in the boot of a car against your will.
Yea so bs they cancelled it...
Can confirm, I am from the US and have arrived in Opononi literally today, like, less than an hour ago. Only reason it was even on my radar is because I saw this segment on TV when it first aired.
Guy Williams: *breathes*
Taniwha: *does the splits*
Omg this is funny.
I swear guy always runs into some crack up characters aye🤣😂
Cracked*
@@sallynutt3169 nah g, by "crack up" i mean funny.

No joke, that guy deserves a documentary about him.
Good old uncle herb 🤣🤣

Guy Williams for Prime minister
he’d be better than Jacinda
For Australia!
@Kieran Cook Australia will accept any Kiwi to do a better job than what we have
oh please god no
Isn't he married to a greenie? No thanks
i love how guy gets into random, awesome, kiwi situations
Herb Leef is a treasure. Thank you for sharing this warm soul with us ❤
He sells meth to the community lol
It's obvious a lot of us here in Aotearoa love the laughs this show gives us so how can we help to keep it running?
sell it to channel 2, seriously get a patreon for him
Give about one million dollars to Guy Williams
By just simply keep watching and sharing.. The more you watch.. The. More the show gets money to keep this going ❤️
@@hopeshealthnz9704 not that simple. Channel 3 is in trouble.
why does the taniwha guy look like a human version of big Z from surfs up
"We need jobs." HAHAHA relatable
His shows were so funny,lighthearted but he touched some serious topics.Gonna miss ya
Guy: "you just said you don't do tricks"
Taniwha:" Yeah well, I just tricked ya"
you can see Guy die a little because of someone with a quick wit
09:09 - 09:20 almost pissed myself at that exchange
Me too 😂😂😂😂 had to replay it a couple times
"Ko Shane Robinson, and who are you? " 😂😂😂
So bloody funny. Its that type of stuff i love about New Zealanders.
This is the kiwi-est shit I've seen in my life
Ah, the breakdancing Taniwha of Maori legend..
and his beatboxing jimjobbing cuz jim. there you go disney, moana 2
Just stumbled upon this beautiful channel! New Zealanders are the best at dead pan humor! It makes me die
It's funny because I can vouch that "dead pan" comes naturally here.
"Cos if I tell them to do it, they aint gonna do it hard"
I will now live the rest of my life based on this mans logic 🙌
Honestly such a shame this show is over. One of the best homegrown shows to ever come out. Great work Guy! Gonna miss it.
What a great episode. Herb Leef, what a great man for the community, a guide for the youngsters.
My Dad lived in Opononi for 8 months during which time his house got broken into 3 times.
Great fishing tho
Give guy Williams his own show!!
This is his own show lol
"jimjobs man, its 3 bucks"
"whats a jimjob?"
"well im jim and I do the job"
Dawn is the sweetest woman and she still has those same eyes! What a treasure.
I couldn't stop laughing at "They stabbed me in the chest" & the awkward silence that followed.
Really hope the breakdancing Taniwha makes a comeback in an upcoming season.
the name reveal honestly killed me, this episode has got me wheezing
This encapsulates why I love New Zealand.
I'm sorry but Guy berating poor Dawn is my favorite bit of this
"Did you kill Opo?"
"😢😢.......... that's a ghastly thing!"
she's so sweet 😂
Crack up. Such a good soul genuinely upset at the ridiculous accusation.
Opononi has the best people.... really does. When I spent time their I found everyone was really friendly and inquisitive and they are all just the best people so thanks to the locals for being so kind, I will never forget my visit to your town..... oh and go Guy....
herb leaf is the reincarnated dolphin
This the most wholesome video I ever watched at 1AM
Opononi is so underrated and the taniwha is an absolute legend can confirm.
YESSSS! Its always a good day when New Zealand Today is on the Tube!
Probably the best video I have ever watched on TH-cam
“ uhm dynamite” 😂😂😂
Lol at herb leef's restricted licence
Happy to see this is getting another season! Im from the UK so we dont really watch Jono and Ben here and its not really my thing. New Zealand today though provides an amazing insight into the country
I'm a geordie who ended up in NZ in 95. The funniest thing about NZ Today is that you can walk down the street and have exactly the same conversations. It's for reals.
@@1998TDM So the country is amazing as it looks? The country itself obviously looks amazing but what really pulled me in is the people who all seem to be really laid back and have great humor.
Herb "taniwha" leaf is a legend
He's so funny I always see him around
Thankyou for some good old entertainment and a good laugh something this world needs more often...but it takes a kiwi to do it
this was absolutely radical. thank you guy williams
Taniwha appears wherever he is needed
Hello my brother...
I'm pretty sure the Taniwha is on some of that P they were talking about
😂😂😂
Taniwha, you’re AWESOME!!😂 Hope to come across him some day soon!!🙌🏽👌🏽
Fight your show getting cancelled 😭😭
WHAT!?
its absolutely fucked
How could they cancel Guy???
I know right guys the best thing since Jono and Ben 😭😭
It's being cancelled ???
I reckon Guy has met most of the Black Power members in the country from this show
9:09 that was on of the best interactions ive seen between 2 people seen in my life
Its such a simple concept, man with camera crew and microphone travels around the place being silly,... but the genuine happiness being spread is legitimate and overwhelming.- He's picked up where Havo and News ended.
I LOVED that he had the emotional intelligence to reel it back in when Dawn started getting upset.
The mystery of the devonport locals Facebook group
😂😂😂
There’s never been a bigger group of snobs
Sup Oscar!
Damn. What a great episode.
P.S. Twas a little cringe when he accused the old lady of being a sociopathic dolphin killer.
Especially she was only 4 at the time 🤣 A bit harsh guy even for a comedy skit 😡
You're the man Guy, glad you're back..Still waiting for you to do the split's guy hahahaha
New Zealand: truly a land of beauty and mystery.
Poor guy got stabbed Several times and he still "Love Life To The Fullest" Solid bro blessed Taniwha! 😭
suggestion: next season of New Zealand Today is hosted by Herb Leef.
One of the funniest yet very educational videos I’ve witnessed...well done Guy and Herb I’m very pleased...hah bless
Soo good. Keep em coming
Another amazing episode!!
Just discovered this show today and its outstanding
I want to meet the Taniwha. He seems like a pretty chill dude.
Just seen guy on a russel Howard TV show im from London and I instantly smiled more than I have in ages. Great to see you on TV 😃
This is bloody brilliant.
Best one yet love it
That was hilarious when he asked that woman if she killed Opo!
I like how your laugh sounds like my asthma attack
Freakin awesome. Funny, moving and weird af. Way to go loved it.
This show is fkn GOLD!
Legend mate! Love it 😍

Of all the stories on Opononi by journalists, Guy Williams' effort here is one of them.
Damn this makes me miss Opo & Omapere, good times growing up there❤️
Same, went to Opononi Area School and lived up Fairly Cres
Hardcase, great stuff. Love that Taniwha fulla, awesome splits.

5:41 I am 100% convinced that man is a real taniwha.

I so want to go-to opo the town and the tanewha is amazing
"P and Fishing" this is meant to be a tourism campaign lmao.
Good job guy loved the end it was awesome
Honest, funny, and culturally relevant comedy. On ya Guy.
Wow, that place is beautiful.
Imagine getting there as sailors on some ship from England in the 1700's. I would have stayed and never went back to cold, drizzly old England.

I went there once, by accident. I was on my way to a Lesbian Yodelling Workshop in Hihi bay, but missed the turnoff. Opononi was closed but someone had left a light on.
The man is back!
