What is the story behind the haka and what does the Haka mean to the All Blacks when they perform it? Go inside the players minds as they tell us what it means to them.
I never tire of seeing the Haka. I’m Irish, but it always moves me. New Zealand has brought the Haka to the world and I am proud that it is part of our rugby culture.
Quan Nguyen you seem to have the wrong idea from this video. NZ was colonised, by force. The ‘native culture’ was not and is not ‘embraced’ at all. The haka is loved because it’s been branded by this team. However our language is still not taught in schools, Māori are frequently told to limit when they perform haka and our treaty has never been honoured. This gives a false view of the relationship between our two peoples.
Add to that.. NZ gives one week a year to celebrate te reo maori ..and that is not embraced by all. Sadly. Without ones indigenous language from.birth and in ones lifetime we will always be viewed as 2nd class citizens in our own country.
What are guys talking? About every highschool in the country has a haka and they all teach te reo too I don't know when you guys grew up but the Maori culture is influential in almost every highschoolers life. I went to Hamilton Boys' and every 6 months we would stay at a marae for two weeks when training for rowing. The Maori culture is so unique and I think New Zealanders embrace it well. I'm a kiwi btw.
JUAN BAUTISTA SEMENZATO I know a man(72 yo) from Brazil and he said that he wishes that the British colonised them instead of the Spanish, because then at least some part of the native Brazilian culture would have been saved. He said the native Brazilian language and culture has been lost and they’re almost synonymous with the Spanish and other Spanish colonies. In NZ Maori is recognised as 1 of 3 official languages, pretty much all schools have a haka and teach te reo Maori and have a marae. How has it not been embraced? What more can you want after being colonised. The Maori have it easy, they’re lucky to even be recognised
When I was reading this comment, I thought you were about to say “I wonder how different things would’ve been if American settlers... settled in Aoteroa (nz)” and I was like ‘NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!’ But then I read the rest of the comment, but remember it’s not to late to embrace the native culture.
South African here. Great video. Great respect for the Haka and NZ. Showing the Haka footage against SA. We see you NZ. We see you. Good luck may the best team win. # GreatestRivals
I’m Scottish and I love the Springbok vs All Black rivalry!! You guys get stuck into each other like no other yet maintain the highest respect! Awesome👊
Greetings from Ireland, where we too fight for our language,culture and identity. I hope the Maori are being looked after by the New Zealand government and people. This has been a brilliant video to watch and learn from. From one warrior people to another, we salute you.
I’m not an Islander, Maori, or Samoan. I served in the Marine Corps. I have deep love and a profound and solid respect for anything that has to do with the Warrior Culture. The Haka makes me proud to be a Warrior. I feel it’s love, unity, and strength when I see it performed. It has saved me from a life of depression and anger. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Bless you, this was an honor to witness.
What beauty and respect for traditions, the old ways. Preserving and growing a culture of brotherhood , being warriors, protecting their families and their country. As a South African supporter of the All Blacks, I get goosebumps every time I watch the All Blacks play and do the haka. It symbolizes everything that is tradition and resonates with every warrior spirit across the globe and into the universe. I am proud beyond measure. What a great country and amazing people. Thank you
I'm a Sonora Yaqui from California. It was an honor and a privelidge to see your Haka. I offer you "la Danza de los Venados" The Deer dance. The dance of my people.
Thank you for your compliment I graciously accepted your offer of la Danza de los Venados and had to watch it he performed it beautifully, I left a comment of how amazing it was. Take care, good health and blessings to you from Turanganui-a-Kiwa, Aotearoa[NZ]
I honorably accept your beautiful greetings from NZ and extend a hand of friendship from my Yaqui brothers in Sonora and SoCal and wish you and yours A friutful and blessed existence "Mi Amigo"!
I'm from central europe and more or less nobody atm gives a shit on traditions - poor idiots all over here. Be proud of your traditions, keep em and celebrate it as often as even possible.
Beautiful game. Beautiful Country. Beautiful people. Spent time in NZ (4 months while travelling around the world) and it is my favorite place in the world outside my home. Love from the UK.
I’m not even from New Zealand but I’m so proud of it, whenever I see Someone doing Haka I feel so emotional, I literally feel pain, anger and lots of emotions I don’t even know how to describe it... all I wanna say Don’t lose it.
Thank you for your compliment, Japan has such a beautiful rich culture that weaves many traditional values, take care, good health and blessings to you from Turanganui-a-Kiwa, Aotearoa[NZ]
OMG this direction is wordly.......sreeen after screen is next level....watching rugby almost 20 years.....and still havin chills watching this stuff.....SALUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m currently in Nz visiting from Australia I was honoured to witness my first haka the other day at the waitangi treaty grounds, i had goosebumps the whole time it’s truly amazing.
Having seen this at Twickenham a few years ago . As an Englishman it gave me goosebumps knowing how much New Zealand means to everyone. When you play the All Blacks it's not just 15 players but a whole nation with there ancestors watching over them . Formidable. 👏👏👏
Mr Gardiner much love & respect for your gracious words & acknowledging our haka. I must give kudos & acknowledge the English media as they were the ones responsible for giving us the nik name all blacks over 100 plus years ago back in the day. When they first saw our NZ rugby team. They were amased watching these rugby players running around in this all black uniform & they were just bloody good at our English rugby game. Trouncing their opposition along the way. As the NZ rugby team was touring around the UK playing games the media kept calling us the All Blacks. It stuck with us, we adopted the name & to this day we retained it & kept it. The name AB's is world wide known now & made the All Blacks the best team in the world or one of the best the teams in the World or World beaters.
@@lindsaytewhare3261 The club I belong to in England his a signed touring New Zealand playing shirt from 1956 touring side along with a letter allowing the club to use All Blacks after the club name . 7 years ago we have a women's rugby festival at the club I noticed a lady stood crying I asked why are you upset . She said my grandfather played in this team this is his name . I put bowed my head and said I will leave you with your grandfather and his fellow colleagues. Never got her name as I felt it was a private moment for her.
I'm a South Indian from the state of Tamil Nadu. For the past 2 months, I'm regularly doing the Haka( Ka Mate and Kapa O Pango). The Haka greatly exhilarated me, when I perform it, inducing an electric energy in me. I prefer the Haka over the Yoga, which is done predominantly and practiced in my country. May Tumatauenga, guide me. Ma te atua e manaaki nga tama katoa a Aotearoa( God bless all the sons of New Zealand). Thank you!!
My brother yoga is more ancient then haka....but if you love haka do it....but the greater possibility of life Liz with yoga.....haka is yoga.....just using the body to fire yourself up is haka....but the process of cooling down comes threw the women call to peace...in ancient time maori or should i say the people of kiwa the pacific ocean...was seen as hair......the one we call as kiwa comes from the tohungia tradition and he is known to the people as IO IO is the deep blue seas.....the people of kiwa has a very strong spiritual connection to southern india....and the pacific will come to afiliate itself with bharate one day......youll see my brorher kia ora ra
let's get directly into it. The haka sounds, feels and provokes a demonic, bad and destructive energy. You can't contradict this. So if it's truly demonic, why should you practice it?
South African here...what a great video. Great respect for the all blacks and always will. They have a great tradition and respect for each other and that is why they are so successful in everything they take on. We hope to see you in the final!!
Im A Wallabies Fan , But this was epic... When you know what you play for .. the pride of a country and what the jersey means everything else falls into place consistently...
its the ultimate blueprint to success i believe its about also the legacy of the men who wore the jersey before you. You HAVE to uphold the standards set or become the best to wear that number anything less and u get cut that's the secret to the ABS success.
@juntao11 im actually happy sum nz players make it on the international stage cos they deserve to. Regardless what team it is, alot of them are just unlucky not to be in the abs and the standard is high that alot wont even get a look in. But former nz players, coaches, etc. Make up a big part of world rugby. i wonder why?
Awesome!! I played against NZ a couple of times while wearing the US jersey. Unfortunately, the games were never deep enough in the tourney to face the Haka, but boy would I have loved to see it as a opponent.
What I wouldn't give to see the All Blacks perform the Haka. Just a dream of this grandma from a small Nevada town. Thank you, All Blacks - you guys rock!
I'm from Colombia, i don't know a lot about your traditions but i think the Haka it's amazing is so powerful and the energy that transmits is awesome, whenever I watch a video I get chills. It’s just amazing. I hope some day I could see one haka in person.
Thank you Italy, I know our people [yours and mine] had a great friendship, connection and respect toward each other in WW2, I know with some families it still exists and therefore honour and glory to you and your country also. From Aotearoa [NZ]
I have never felt such a surreal feeling than what I feel when I watch the Haka. I have so much respect for the Maori people. Thank you so much for teaching us the history. I wish with all my heart that more people come to know of the love and kindness of the Maori people ❤
I'm from India but studied in Australia n when I was there I learnt a lil about Maori. Not lying, I would love to learn haka..it motivates me to a great extent, the energy I get just by watching people perform is incredible. Would love to go to NZ and learn it❤️
Putting aside race relation problems here in NZ, this makes me really proud to be a kiwi! The faster we can all stand together, the faster we can make our mighty nation even mightier!
South African here, just love seeing this and love seeing people embrace the culture land and history. Haka always takes me back to 1995, when it was the first time I saw it. Respect for you guys
I am from PNG but every time I watch the Haka being performed, its like a spirtual experience. It touches the heart and soul. People from all other cultures must never disrespect the Haka.
I saw this today before the quarter-finals game against Ireland and I had tears in my eyes, goosebumps and my heart was racing! It is so well done and very interesting too. Thank you for this video!!
The haka is absolutely awesome. A connection to not only the All Blacks, but also the land and the Maori culture. Thanks for sharing this great video. :)
I love it, when i couldnt understand rugby, i was fascinated about the Haka. I was so curious and thanks to youtube and many online platforms, i was able to develop more understanding for the sports.
Respect, The HAKA, is the vibe that people of ancient warriors and the rugby are fantastic for the skill's this people feroces un ancient times, and is a honour to all, beautiful never forgotten, U I am, here I come from!!!
My wife is Polynesian (Tongan AND Samoan). It makes me proud to be married to her and always learning something new about the culture everyday. Puts me in a humble mood every time I watch the Haka, or this video 🤘🏻🤘🏻💪🏻💪🏻🙏🏼🙌🏻
as an Australian professional Wrestler, greek/Spartan background and ancestry, I love the Haka and the new Zealand/Maori culture as it gives me power and goosebumps. its part of my pre match / gym ritual to listen to both Kamate & Kapa O Pango hakas to pump/hype me up and focus. beautiful & powerful element.
Hats Off to ALL the Kiwis for how an indigenous ritual is shared with respect and pride. The equivalent does not exist here in Canada without fear of being accused of cultural appropriation and we avoid indigenous icons like the plague. As a result, I feel we all lose something. I hope we can overcome these barriers some day. We will all be richer for it.
My mum is unsporty and therefore reacts oddly when she sees me watching the haka. When I told her about the story, her respect and appreciation for the Mauri people and New Zealand just went through the roof 🇳🇿
I cant say for sure but if I had to guess there are well over a hundred different Haka, they all serve a different purpose and have different intentions. They also vary amongst different "iwi" or tribes. Some are welcoming, some are warnings, some are story based. They are very important in Maori culture.
My name is Hona, I live in the shadow of the Kuia Pihanga, the Gateway to Okahukura, where the big maunga sit. Great great great great grandson of Te Wharerangi. Ka Mate is indeed composed by Te Rauparaha, but he does it in honor of the man that saves his life. The man, Te Wharerangi, or the hairy man that lived on Motu-a-Puhi on Rotoaira. These two men were enemies. not friends, but at the request of Mananui, Te Wharerangi places himself and his people in jeopardy in order to save Te Rauparaha. Te Raupataha is saved and climbs out of his temporary tomb, and honors Te Wharerangi. This korero is carved into the Poutokomanawa on the Wharepuni Okahukura, at Otukou. This is our story, the whanau of Te Wharerangi. Time has ignored us, but it has been carved in wood.
Tena koe .Ka nui te mihi ki a koe e te rangatira mo to korero. Kia mou ki nga korero a kui ma a koro ma hei maumahara te ao katoa i te hitori o tenei haka me te iwi o ngati toa rangatira. Mauri ora
@@absoledge This is the Hollywood version. My whanau hold the true korero as you might expect. Te Wharerangi differed from Maori around him in that his male line doesn't arrive here on waka from Taputapuatea. We are Manawhenua, people of Okahukura. Te Rauparaha's ancestors arrive on waka. Te Wharerangi is killed for saving Te Rauparaha in a revenge attack. This occurs so that the Government can steal our mountains in the future with the assistance of other waka Maori. For my whanau, this eventa is an injustice, and an offence.
Chur brother, My name is Tainui wineera. I am 1 of many wineeras who are straight decentants of terauparaha. He is my great great great great great grandfather. Without the help of te wharerangi our whanau and iwi would not be as it is today . Kiaora for that
Much respect to the ABs and the Haka, which for me symbolizes the evolving reconciliation efforts between many different people who call New Zealand their home. May we all become the bridge and intertwining roots from which a healthy and strong mana tree can grow into the future, together.
Amazing how a sport which came from a small town in Warwickshire has merged with a warrior code of honour from the other side of the world. World spirit in action.
I never tire of seeing the Haka. I’m Irish, but it always moves me. New Zealand has brought the Haka to the world and I am proud that it is part of our rugby culture.
Who the hell shot this!? Cut and graded so well.
Looked like the intro to the show Vikings, loved it
exactly what i was thinking, audio was incredible too
So obviously the haka in the video was performed against Wales, but which test match was it and when?
Five minutes of goosebumps and hairs standing up on the back of my neck wow awesome brothers
yeah
The instant it started and all through
Same as me bro! Iam crying! No shit.
It’s such a terrifying chant to stand across from, and yet so beautiful. It’s a combination like no other.
Always awesome
Beautiful. So proud to be from New Zealand.

As an American I wonder how different things would've been if American settlers embraced the Native culture instead of subjugating it.

Thank you South Africa and blessings from Aotearoa [NZ]
This is amazing! The level of editing on this is fantastic!
Remember first seen the haka, tears came out straight away and I was even aware of it it’s just powerful and emotional
I am from PNG but every time I watch the Haka being performed, its like a spirtual experience. It touches the heart and soul. People from all other cultures must never disrespect the Haka.
Real men that don't kneel to victim-hood and at least strive for family honour and good values. I respect them for that alone. Kia ora from Australia.
Thank you for sharing this historical information about Haka.
Remembered seeing it on TV when I was young, it fascinated me then and still do today.
Feel blood pressure goes up watching allblacks do the haka. Proud living in beautiful aotearoa where this culture exists.
@nga puhi haha I got my bulldog already, but thanks
I really loved the storyline about the importance and the legacy of this magnificent Haka. 😢😍
BILE. LOUZA 2O
I saw this today before the quarter-finals game against Ireland and I had tears in my eyes, goosebumps and my heart was racing! It is so well done and very interesting too. Thank you for this video!!
Never knew about the Haka until now. What a fierce, deep pride that is shown. Mesmerizing, strong, beautiful.
The haka is absolutely awesome. A connection to not only the All Blacks, but also the land and the Maori culture.
Thanks for sharing this great video. :)
It does summon the Warrior Spirit for sure! Go AllBlacks! Carry the ancestors with you!
I’m Tongan and Samoan but, I love the story of the chief
It makes me Be ENCOURAGED 😈💪🏾
One of my favorite parts during a test match when NZ play. The hska always sends chills through the body.
Im a wallabies fan but the Haka gets me everytime!! Something about it that touches you on a deep emotional level.
Thank you for your compliment Kuzn from across the ditch, take care, good health and blessings to you from Turanganui-a-Kiwa, Aotearoa[NZ]
One of the best directed movies ive ever seen . 5 mins of goosebumps hats off to the director
I love it, when i couldnt understand rugby, i was fascinated about the Haka. I was so curious and thanks to youtube and many online platforms, i was able to develop more understanding for the sports.
Respect, The HAKA, is the vibe that people of ancient warriors and the rugby are fantastic for the skill's this people feroces un ancient times, and is a honour to all, beautiful never forgotten, U I am, here I come from!!!
Much love fams
Big respect from Istanbul Turkey. Our KIWI AND ANZAC BROTHERS!
Much love to the people of the great nation of Turkey, from a Maori here in New Zealand.
Awe. No words. Just emotion from the bottom of my heart, my mind and soul. 🙏🌱💚👽🌎
My wife is Polynesian (Tongan AND Samoan). It makes me proud to be married to her and always learning something new about the culture everyday. Puts me in a humble mood every time I watch the Haka, or this video 🤘🏻🤘🏻💪🏻💪🏻🙏🏼🙌🏻
Been there for 3 years n still missing the culture n nature. Love from Indonesia.
Thank you Indonesia, blessings from Aotearoa [NZ]

An irishman with goosebumps to finally get a sense of what the haka truely means
Who else is excited for the rugby world cup
Respect from beautiful NZ 💕
@@luluday88 👌
as an Australian professional Wrestler, greek/Spartan background and ancestry, I love the Haka and the new Zealand/Maori culture as it gives me power and goosebumps. its part of my pre match / gym ritual to listen to both Kamate & Kapa O Pango hakas to pump/hype me up and focus. beautiful & powerful element.
As a Springbok fan this is truly amazing to truly understand the haka #respect
Shot bro😎You could also check out "meaning of haka beats by dre" if you wish
Who also cannot wait for the 21st of September👀
Go all blacks.. but since my wife is Japanese I hope they also make some points.
Looking forward to our ABs take on the Springboks, bloody excited to watch these 2 mega teams smash each other 😆
No one
Whats happening on that day?
@@intj_5398 only the biggest rugby game ever between Nz & SAF, 1st up @RugbyWorldCup in Japan 😆
Real men❤️🌺💪I enjoy The Haka..touching..Native American/Latina
Not from NZ but this video made me feel connected. Thank you 🙏
I'm Cherokee Indian, and I love the HAKA, ITS SO POWERFUL.
As a kiwi now living in Perth, this brought tears of pride to me. Thank you
Love New Zealand from Georgia. Our Coach is Kiwi we love him.

Every time man every single fucking time I get goosebumps and start sweating when I see this

We love Hakka too! I wholeheartedly wish success to my favorite team from New Zealand!
Thank you for your compliment, take care, good health and blessings to you and Russia from Turanganui-a-Kiwa, Aotearoa [NZ]
Hats Off to ALL the Kiwis for how an indigenous ritual is shared with respect and pride. The equivalent does not exist here in Canada without fear of being accused of cultural appropriation and we avoid indigenous icons like the plague. As a result, I feel we all lose something. I hope we can overcome these barriers some day. We will all be richer for it.
My mum is unsporty and therefore reacts oddly when she sees me watching the haka. When I told her about the story, her respect and appreciation for the Mauri people and New Zealand just went through the roof 🇳🇿
Such wonderful to hear the women were also together.. Wow. Great folk.
Used to work at AKL airport and I have seen so many Haka when you guys welcome relatives back home. Whole airport watching
I am Japanese. It was ignorant that such an idea was put in the all black haka. I loved it more and more
I cant say for sure but if I had to guess there are well over a hundred different Haka, they all serve a different purpose and have different intentions. They also vary amongst different "iwi" or tribes.
Some are welcoming, some are warnings, some are story based. They are very important in Maori culture.
@@joshin4127 As a Māori myself, you are 100% correct. You clearly did bit of research taku hoa (my friend)
My name is Hona, I live in the shadow of the Kuia Pihanga, the Gateway to Okahukura, where the big maunga sit. Great great great great grandson of Te Wharerangi. Ka Mate is indeed composed by Te Rauparaha, but he does it in honor of the man that saves his life. The man, Te Wharerangi, or the hairy man that lived on Motu-a-Puhi on Rotoaira. These two men were enemies. not friends, but at the request of Mananui, Te Wharerangi places himself and his people in jeopardy in order to save Te Rauparaha. Te Raupataha is saved and climbs out of his temporary tomb, and honors Te Wharerangi. This korero is carved into the Poutokomanawa on the Wharepuni Okahukura, at Otukou. This is our story, the whanau of Te Wharerangi. Time has ignored us, but it has been carved in wood.
Tena koe .Ka nui te mihi ki a koe e te rangatira mo to korero. Kia mou ki nga korero a kui ma a koro ma hei maumahara te ao katoa i te hitori o tenei haka me te iwi o ngati toa rangatira. Mauri ora
Hona Wikeepa is this a translation?
@@absoledge This is the Hollywood version. My whanau hold the true korero as you might expect. Te Wharerangi differed from Maori around him in that his male line doesn't arrive here on waka from Taputapuatea. We are Manawhenua, people of Okahukura. Te Rauparaha's ancestors arrive on waka. Te Wharerangi is killed for saving Te Rauparaha in a revenge attack. This occurs so that the Government can steal our mountains in the future with the assistance of other waka Maori. For my whanau, this eventa is an injustice, and an offence.
@@honawikeepa5813 Te Rauparahas Ngeri, He Oranga, holds the korero. You know that my bro?
Chur brother, My name is Tainui wineera. I am 1 of many wineeras who are straight decentants of terauparaha. He is my great great great great great grandfather. Without the help of te wharerangi our whanau and iwi would not be as it is today . Kiaora for that
So beautiful...
I'm mexican and I want to go to New Zeland... It's a beautiful country...
Amazing, beautiful, you cannot help but be inspired and stirred by the Haka, we could and should learn so much from these amazing cultures.
Nothing but chills #allblacks
Powerful and beautiful.
Respect from Japan
Respect back to Japan thank you from Aotearoa [NZ]
It’s so amazing makes you wish you was from there such brotherhood sometimes overwhelming to watch🙏🏼
Butiful man... everytime I c the haka I get goosebumps cnt get enuf of that culture
Much respect and adoration from Mexico! 🇲🇽❤️🇳🇿
Thank you Mexico from Aotearoa [NZ]
Much respect to the ABs and the Haka, which for me symbolizes the evolving reconciliation efforts between many different people who call New Zealand their home. May we all become the bridge and intertwining roots from which a healthy and strong mana tree can grow into the future, together.
I love the way you think brother
Kia ora bro tautoko 😉
All Blacks v Springboks - 21 September. We love playing the All Blacks. Much respect. See you on the field.
Amazing how a sport which came from a small town in Warwickshire has merged with a warrior code of honour from the other side of the world. World spirit in action.
