Maori mythology is something left over from the infancy their intelligence. Take for example the myth of the slowing down of the sun. In the days of old Tamanuiterā, the sun, used to move through the sky at much too fast a pace for humanity to complete all their days' chores leaving long, cold nights that lasted for many hours while Tamanuiterā slept. Māui and his brothers journeyed to Tamanuiterā's sleeping pit with a large rope, which in some tellings was made from their sister Hina's hair. The brothers fashioned the rope into a noose or net, and in doing so "discovered the mode of plaiting flax into stout square-shaped ropes, (tuamaka); and the manner of plaiting flat ropes, (paharahara); and of spinning round ropes", which when Tamanuiterā awoke found himself caught in. Using a patu made from the jawbone of their grandmother, Murirangawhenua, Māui beat the sun into agreeing to slow down and give the world more time during the day. So you see if that had not happened McDonald´s would only be serving breakfast.
A windscreen wiper (Commonwealth English) or windshield wiper (American English) is a device used to remove rain, snow, ice, washer fluid, water, or debris from a vehicle's front window. Almost all motor vehicles, including cars, trucks, buses, train locomotives, and watercraft with a cabin-and some aircraft-are equipped with one or more such wipers, which are usually a legal requirement. A wiper generally consists of a metal arm; one end pivots, and the other end has a long rubber blade attached to it. The arm is powered by a motor, often an electric motor, although pneumatic power is also used for some vehicles. The blade is swung back and forth over the glass, pushing water, other precipitation, or any other impediments to visibility from its surface. The speed is usually adjustable on vehicles made after 1969, with several continuous rates and often one or more intermittent settings. Most personal automobiles use two synchronized radial-type arms, while many commercial vehicles use one or more pantograph arms.
I love it. It's a story that I treasure from my childhood

calm down kid what are you like 9 or something?
Hundreds of thousands of years of mountain rage and battle and a very slow relocation of formation o te maunga Pokeonaki known now as Taranaki
He mīharo rawa atu te animation!
Loved this story❤❤
NICE Kei te whakaatu ahau ki aku tamariki ka pakeke mai nga mihi mo te korero❤🎉
whatua te rerupeka ki te ngaruateke o ki tuapa te waipato
Ko pihanga te maunga wahine. Ae ra! Pirangi ai nga taane maunga ki te Marena ki a ia.
Tau ke te kiriata nei, he rawe ngā ata mariko, hei whakapuaki i tēnei pūrākau ki te tini me te mano, ka mau te wehi.
this is a bazinga moment
