That boys spirit fell and someone else stepped up and took the reins. That's loyalty right there. That was B-E-A-utiful
Wish they should the bro who step up and took over would of been solid to see him at that point take over that what you call having your famz back aroha mai to the whanau
@@bobbyjamain2147 That's what family is. Loyalty, Aroha, Mana. Chur
Family, Honor, Pride....only death can take those away.
They just warn the Gods that another Warrior is enroute to join them.

The man in the middle deserves the biggest amount of respect. If anything, he is the strongest man alive. May the deceased soul Rest In Peace
♥️♥️
Cheap Ship it's the brother of the deceased
Pretty sure it's his brother who committed suicide so yeah hes got alot of heart n soul in him..
He did his job. He did his job
Me podrian traducir esto se me hace tan maravilloso que quisira saber que significa o que dicen gracias
That girl who took the lead for a second , she was a flame to ignite the whole funeral again.
what a woman
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for that, they always make things better 🙏🏾
1:17 the pause that he gave was like he’s trying to get himself together and his friends begin to grunt and shriek in encouragement knowing he is not alone. then when he feels like he can’t anymore and breaks down his friend continues for him. that’s so amazing of this culture.
Why we can't gather all the cultures together and find one universal way of becoming one x
@@spontan3ously_me Same reason why we can’t heard cats.
@@lourdesblueblood1 Weirdo answer!
@@spontan3ously_me It doesn't happen dude, it's already been written, read The Bible some time, we're in the End times, it only gets worse!
Not a weirdo answer. The brother has got it exactly. The leader is the leader... we can only encourage him until he actually falters. Then second strongest will carry him. And you're right. The grunting and shrieking was his boys reminding him they were there and encouraging him.
Whenever I see a haka, it sends chills down my spine. This one brought me to tears. If you're struggling, please get help!
Cor Gems do you think you can translate what they are saying?
What is Haka
watch the video
NoBigDeal it's a traditional dance certain Pacific islanders practice.
The haka is anything but a struggle...im pretty sure its a ceremony (i know nothing about the haka history but too me it seems like a tribute chant) if acceptance to what happens in our lifecycle
Damn i fee like modern society has lost touch to such primal and liberating rituals.
DrFodz Right? I couldn't agree more.
You act as if not being primal anymore is a bad thing. This is a cultural thing. Us on the mainland never did this. Haka's are still very common now in modern times so not sure what you are saying.
Franken Peter, that is not what they said at all, quit making shit up.
I think they were trying to say that these ways to express emotions are much healthier, and better ways to release the emotions than what we have in a lot of places... funerals of sausage rolls and sorry for your loss are no good.
We have lost our spiritual connection with ourselves and nature and replaced it with ego and dopamine hits from social media.
This has to be one, if not the, most moving expression of grief I have ever seen. Simultaneously heart wrenching and beautiful. My heart goes out to all of these people who lost their loved one and friend.
"It was a warning...to whom...they are warning the dead sir, a warrior is about to arrive."

The raw emotion of these men shows not only the respect they had for him, but the warrior
spirit of their people that lives forever. Mad respect from a 1st Infantry veteran. JT
1:30 when he's overcome with emotion, someone picks up the lead seamlessly. This is such a moving display
Lmfao
@@kristasewell1165 what's funny Krista? Your race have no culture?
@@kristasewell1165 ?
@@kristasewell1165 what exactly is wrong with you? I sincerely hope you never have to go through the pain that these young men, who you are laughing at, are experiencing.
It’s pretty much our custom when performing if someone can’t finish their line and they choke up with emotion someone who is near them will take over, especially performing for someone who has passed
I have never seen (or even heard of) a Haka until today. This is one of the most heartbreaking expressions of grief I've ever seen. It's like a primal scream set to music and given form. Thank you for sharing this, and may, Jarom Hadley rest in peace.
C caymer You’re setting a good example on how to make yourself seem like an ignorant asshole.
@C caymer you again ya black hua!!! Get the fuck outta here Kunta Kinte... Talk shit about us I'm going to return the favour because I love it!!!👊👊👊🖕🖕🖕
@C caymer Is that it? oh my god
@Hate hate Hate no
@Hate hate Hate i can't believe you're disrespecting this family
This brings tears every time I watch it. I use it to help myself grieve. All humanity needs tribal generational grief and ritual. Many of us are disconnected from grief and it stagnates like a poison in our veins. Watching that young man's soul bleed for his loved one as his friends help support him as he falters with sorrow fills me with empathy and joy and I thank you all for this window into a healthy grieving community. Respect and love to you all.
I’m going to be honest, the most stuffiest and depressing funerals I have ever been to are white funerals. I’m not saying we have to boogie down, but can’t we do anything other than have small talk to people you don’t know?
What they just said
Very true. I find it soulless and going through the motion of a funeral a bland process.
The leading man was crying why... Was he his friend or brother??
@@JljJj-it was his older brother who died.
This video is so emotional for me I lost my brother to suicide and I remember when he lived in New Zealand ChristChurch for abit and he loved it there and always wanted to back but never got to. When he got back to the UK he was like you never guess what I learnt the Haka at school and it was awesome and I sat there and watched him do it, he loved everything about New Zealand. one day im going to go there for him and take a picture with me so it feels like he is there too
I’m so sorry for you loss.
There are some things that last beyond time and death. Love and culture are two of them.
Where ever you go right beside you he will be x
We would love to have u here🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🌏🌈🏌🏻♀️🎟🏝🏝🏝🏖🏖🏖🏔🗻🛤🌌🌌🌌🧘♂️⛷🥂💐🌲🌳☘️🌻🪴🌺🍀💐🌾🥀🌿🎋🌲🪕📸📸📷📷📷📸📸📷📷📷📸📸📸📸📸📸📸
Ka Aroha for you, your whanau and brother's spirit. It will be wonderful for you to bring something to NZ for your brother. We Māori call this tradition - Kawe mate. We do this for our departed loved ones. It means “carrying the dead.” This tikanga takes place after the death of a loved one. It invokes her or his memory, with a representation of that person as a potent visual symbol. Nau mai, hoki mai - Welcome back!
Whats really hearty is when another dude takes lead while the fella here in the middle uses his strength to get through.. 💯
Bro your comment👌
That there was beautiful wasn't it?
When the woman in the back starts to yell is when you know it's a really emotional moment - traditionally women don't participate in Hakas.
@@russellbudell4389 Women did participate in Haka but weren't allowed to Lead a haka.
Russell Budell mmm not true, women can most definitely perform haka. Some haka can restrictions to the leads of the haka being only male.
Jarom was a friend of mine. I met him in 2014 in my first year of high school. He was the first new friend I made there. I remember playing knuckles with him in tutor and he'd always win. He told me he could never lose because of his calloused knuckles. I was there that day. I was in the doorway of the chapel (behind the crowd to the right) and I couldn't see through my tears and an elderly lady held me in her arms. 3 years this year. Still miss you everyday Jarom. Kia Kaha
My condolences to you. Huge hugs~
sending you hugs from the other side of the world. i hope the guy in the blue is holding up okay still 💕
How did he pass?
chris saxon commited suicide ....
@@ethanIsMyDaddy what a shame. To be that low in life and think thats the only way out. If only he had waited a month, or year, maybe things would have gotten better. Great Haka. What a way to honor him! Good job.
I'm a 46 year old guy, and I find this to me equal amounts heartbreaking and awe-inspiring. Had me in tears watching it this morning, Jarom's brother is a brave guy to have stepped up in this tribute to his brother. I don't think I could have.
The grief of the youngman at the front in blue shirt, brought me to tears. I wasn't there, neither do i umderstand what was being chanted, but i felt his pain in this video.
I imagine being able to able to let out this much raw emotion at a funeral could be really helpful in the healing process. This was beautiful to watch.
when the girls joined in i almost burst into tears
Maze Runner same here !!
Same, wahine toa 🙌🏾
In their culture do girls usually join?
@Black Weirdo Thank you so much for answering! 😊
Mr Plow Were*
The brother leading the Haka...its the most moving thing I've ever seen in my whole life. How unimaginably difficult that must have been, but after everytime he almost breaks down (understandably) he finds strength from deep within to keep moving . Its truly inspiring to say the least. I've watched this a few times over the years and it does me in everytime.
I’ve watched these a few times over the years as well. And every single time I feel an ache in my chest for the guy in the blue shirt. I hurt for all of them but the love he had for his friend ( I assume)… I want a friend like that. When I hear this.. I feel it, it makes me cry and Gives me goosebumps. Kia Kaha Kia Maia
@@Hederrrcole88 That was his younger brother in the blue shirt. And he truly felt the spirit of the Haka. He kept fighting to the bitter end.
Same here I cry every time I watch it
What a great release. Grief is a hard pill to swallow. This video is beyond beautiful!😅
Imagine having this many friends, friends that would pay you this massive respect
My name is Roman Govender from South Africa. My late dad was a diehard all blacks fan & so am l. I always get emotional when I listen to the haka.
I wanna witness something like this once in my life. This spirit of union, togetherness and the untamed expression of emotions. Incredible.
It’s intimidating as hell in person..
Very well put. Both of you.
Its another level of wow...I use to go school in NZ and I loved it...kapa haka was the best...I felt alive when doing it...all the adrenalin you get when you feel united
Something we have lost. Now we go against each other
It’s rare I should say
Our haka from Waikato is enraging for warfare. You’ll feel something shake through you
Once again proof that you can cry and still have a warrior's spirit. Cheers and condolences
beautiful comment
True warriors do not fear their emotions. They channel them into their spirit.
Well said ✨✨✨
Thanks.
There are no words, but my heart was in sync with you all. Much respect from the UK.❤
I watch this with the hairs on the back of my neck standing up and tears streaming down my cheeks thats because its very beautiful emotion creating thing to not only watch but to hear also.
This is one of those things you can't explain . It's really like seeing ghosts or spiritual entities and they grab you. There's no words. This is who we are as people. I love you all.
Damn I thought the guy in the middle was getting tired but he was crying. Respect.
It was his brother....
You would also be crying if ur younger brother took his own life..
its his brother that passed away
(Rough) Translation:
Descending/ approaching
Descending/ approaching
Descending upon Whakatu, who await you here
And prepare for your arrival
There will be continuous battle
Give me your threats and I shall make short work of them, in the heat of battle
Beautiful, just beautiful. Love from your neighbours Fiji 🇫🇯 ☺
Nice
Danninaut thank you for this I’ve been looking for the translation
the meaning is so deep! Amazing...
Thank you for sharing the words to an American. All of the Hakus I have seen really are beautiful and I feel badly for the guy in the light blue shirt. The pain must be unbearable. May your friend rest in peace.
I've seen this a hundred times and tonight I was moved to tears.
This is so insanely touching 🥹 I could feel the guy at the fronts emotion through my screen. The way the ladies in the corner supported the men and joined in 🥹 omg my heart ❤
Ok....that’s heartbreaking😢. But also show‘s how powerfull the Haka is if you want to show someone your last Respect
@Hate hate Hate u are cursed bad luck will follow u. Swt knightmares
@Hate hate Hate u bring kids n2 ur sick troll games lol ur pathetic 😂 😂 😂
Ouch I stubbed my toe u barstard
@Hate hate Hate 😂 😂 barstard
I watch this Haka over and over again. The young man in the light blue really got to me, not to exclude any of the other young people in this Haka. I can feel their pain, anger, confusion with just their movements. I don't speak the language but it's truly touching. I'm from America and we lost touch with our ancestors and rituals in my book. Especially being half Native American myself so this really hits home for me. I wish you all the best, take care of yourselves and each other.
It's never too late to practice who you are. Colonization has done it's best to erase us, but we are still here, and guarantee if you searched for some traditional knowledge you would find it, it is your right. No one can get between you and your soul and spirit.
Find your tribe. We are still here. We still have our traditions. Someone will help you learn. Much love.
Good luck to you too
i feel the same, i dont understand a single word, but i was in tears. the emotion is powerful
My children are one eighth Native American, but we don't know much more than that, how he ended up in Australia we've no idea but I'm very proud to know my beautiful kids have a connection to such amazing people, the reason I commented is that my daughter is married to the most loving, kind and caring man who is half Maori so my granddaughter has the blood of two first nations in her veins - she is stunning, I've never ever seen a baby quite like her and I love her with every fibre of my being.
James is forever showing her the Haka and the emotions that get stirred up in me are so powerful, my son in law is honestly the best person whose ever come in our lives, we all love him, me like he's my own son, and my children like he's their brother 💖
I don't know any of this situation. But I do know, there is power in love. Watching him not be able to continue, to have to intake air, his whole demeanor. I am so sorry for his loss. I'm a nobody, and I have shed many tears watching this. Pain links us all together. To REALLY feel for another persons loss.
Everytime I see this, the raw emotion the man in the middle is expressing emanates through my phone, and gets to me. This is powerful
"It is only the dead who have truly witnessed the end of the war"
- Plato.
For war is without end
the war is the world, and the world is the war
That is most manly outpouring of grief and emotion I have ever seen. I wish I knew how to do this - I have a few things I would like to get off my chest.
I know it's a year since you shared but I hope sharing my raw reaction to comment will help.
"oh, brother.. ".
Masculine, yes. Manly, no. This is an important distinction. And if you want to get things off your chest, go see a therapist
This is to pay our last respect to our loved one that’s just passed away this is our song this ain’t a grieving process
If you need to express emotions, do it- manlyly or not. Nobody has the right to judge you on that. Fuck this society if it doesn't allow you to do that basic thing.
Wow. I wish I was born into this culture. This just spoke to me so deeply, I can only imagine what it must be like to express your grief in such a powerful way. Rest in power.
I am sobbing. I had to stop and get a hold of myself before I could write this. This was filled with so much emotion and hurt and love and life. So much anger. So much sadness. I mourn for you. I am sorry for your loss. I understand it. I know suicide. Here’s to hoping we don’t have to know it again.
vera sweeney i agree. You could tell this was done with heart, and emotion. I don’t see anything wrong with them doing this. It shows great respect, pride and love they have for their culture and family.
Well said! Thanks!
Same here.
Same here @vera sweeney every single time I see this.
C caymer don’t be an asshole, somebody lost a life.
417 dislikes. That’s 417 people with no heart, soul and compassion.
This is power. This is fire. This is respect. This is pure. This is the connecting of souls.
Every once it a while I feel the need to watch this again! 😢
That is heartbreaking and touching to watch at the same time. Such a lovely tribute to the gentleman 🙏❤️
Everytime I watch this I cry, Jarom must have been a special guy, The grief his brother feels is evident and tangible, I hope his family have found comfort, especially his brother, Hugs from Ireland.
Knowing he's doing this for his brother, the way he struggles to keep going despite how hard it is, accepting someone he'd literally grown up with......
I’ve watch many haka celebration videos, but never a funeral one.
I got chills and my eyes watered. I’m not part of the culture, but I felt the soul of everyone there
What a strong and fitting tribute to a loved one. I recently lost several friends suddenly who got no fitting tribute in my mind. I would have loved to perform something like this with my brothers for these men. Mr Hadley... I am in the north east of the united states and I hope you see this some day... but your touching Haka has made its way all the way from your home to pennsylvania. You have honored your brother across oceans and countries. Thank you for your show of love for your brother. I can only hope that some day I will earn the honor of something similar. God bless you and your brother.
Damn the guy in tears and emotion trying to keep going choked me up, I'm sorry for your loss.
When the women get involved it adds another level of power to it.
Always 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thats collective mana
I felt it two.
All together
Hate to be scientific, but when men hear a women’s shriek, we primally go into a protective state which explains why it got so energised. Respect to all of them for finding the strength to do this
I am not part of this culture but I couldn't get pass the first min without bursting into tears. And I wish I could give the guy in the first row a hug. May you no longer feel sorrow.
I just started randomly watching things on RUclips and came across this video and I know nothing ab y’all a culture but I can just tell this was extremely powerful. It brought tears to my eyes by just all the love and strength that I saw. That’s just absolutely amazing to watch. I’m sorry for your loss and let there spirits Rest In Peace ♥️♥️
Y’all I cried and couldn’t stop . This is beautiful . I can’t tell you how many times I’ve watched this . The love and support is amazing
As a suicide survivor from both my mother (53) and little sister(16) (after my little brother(19) died from alcohol overdose) I understand your pain. What a beautiful tribute you did for your brother. I am still cleaning up my tears. Thank you for sharing this.❤
Your brother died and then your mom and sister committed suicide? Anyhow, that's a horrible thing to have to happen, I'm sorry and I admire your perseverance. Best of luck.
You are a strong, precious soul. I pray for your everlasting peace and strength. Walk tall.
I'm sorry to hear that. Be strong. Walk tall. I'm a survivor myself. Life MUST go on. ;
I feel stupid to ask, but what's a suicide survivor? Is it surviving an attempted suicide?
Tinseltopia From the sound of it, she was saying she the family member of those who committed suicide. I.e. She survived them.
It must be around 100 times at least that i have seen this performed in my lifetime from watching the rugby , but never have i seen it performed with such emotion and passion , rest easy dude .
I keep this video saved on my RUclips and occasionally come back to watch it and get chills every time. This is absolutely beautiful. ❤️❤️
A Haka is like the most honorable, respectful, moving and beautiful gift the Maori culture can give to someone in my opinion
only 17. so young. So so sorry for your loss
I have never seen a ritual with such emotions and feelings as a Haka. It's like the song of a group of warriors expressing what's in their hearts.
No matter how much I watch this I will always get tears in my eyes.
The emotions that were expressed in that haka said it all, the body language and facial expressions says it all and not to mention their voices- oh their voices.
I know how horrible suicide can be. 2019 I lost a mate to suicide and before that I had to constantly stop my friend from doing reckless thongs to hurt herself or worse.
And I know what it's like to have a love one like that go. It hurt. You could never dream of them leaving your side at least not like that. Last year my mum past away to cancer in November. She had the bagpipes and a haka at her funeral. It was beautiful. Just like this haka.
I have been unsuccessfully been trying to cry since 2012. This did it. I cried. Thank you.
nice
You don't just see his pain, you hear it. You feel it. I cry everytime I watch this.
Always gets me everytime I watch this. It's easy to say hi but hard to say goodbye. It's even more devastating that you have to deal with it for the rest of your life. Always check on your love ones and never take for granted the times you spend together.
I am not from new Zealand but I love this sooooooo much and how you show so much love to someone who has passed away. This was so touching and it made me cry and wish that I could have this done when I pass away someday. The way this was done was so beautiful and touching. May the Lord Jesus bless you all. Love to you all From Australia
You can see his pain.. I'm crying so hard, I cant imagine him, all them doing haka in memory for his beloved friend. My condolences.
It's even sadder when you realize it's his BROTHER
@@iffoster22 oh no. :'( thanks for the info.
yes, the pain is tangible.
Man i cannot stop crying. The resonance.
That young man w/ the blue shirt/tie was so overcome by emotion but he fought thru & finished it. He's a stronger man that I am; I'd be crying like a blubbering fool. I had tears in my eyes at the start of this vid & when the girls chimed in, I teared up even more. I'm a 52 yr old man and I'm not afraid nor embarrassed to admit that I teared up alot while watching this. Just sayin'. 🇨🇦👊🏻🤙🏻
I’m white Australian, I don’t fully understand the history or cultural significance but what I do understand is the humanity.... the passion the respect and the pure raw emotion I feel whenever I see one performed... Orissa so moving and so beautiful...
Havent cried like that in a while..felt good..much love
This is 2020 and tears still rolling😭 from watching this
Me too aye...
For I may face any enemy, knowing who stands at my back.
Damn I was already crying from the video and then this comment just made me lose it 😭😭😭😭
The Haka can truly give one the power to destroy the devil himself.
This is a beautiful way to show love and respect, to the departed loved one. I admit that it made my eyes well up with tears. That young man was truly loved.
The one who was leading could barely hold himself together but he pulled through. Losing someone is hard. His memory will live on.
This is the most emotional HAKA Dance I've ever seen in my entire life, and this is so special!
The guy in the front front, in the middle with light blue outfit was so expressive (and I suspect he is the brother of the lost soul) and I was in tears when he was breaking apart.
Such a special for a send-off and this video is so touching.
Thank you for posting Anthony Hall!
I am still watching this, years later, feeling the sadness of your grief... but still in awe of this beautiful COMMUNITY. They were grieving the loss but, they were there for AND with the one grieving the most.
It's about family. It's about who you are, where you come from, who is with you when you feel alone.
I find myself being envious of such ties.
I couldn't respect this any greater. ROOTS, COMMUNITY, HISTORY, FAMILY.
They are never alone when they have each other.
Absolutely beautiful and so rare these days. I pray they never lose this, as so many of us have.
I saw this awhile back and after being in a mental health hospital for the past 4 or 5 days, I saw how terrible some people really have it in life, and I was reminded of this video and how important it is to be strong and have community and friends that care about you and love you.
I am so sorry for your loss, guys. I would do anything to give you a hug and let you cry all over me, brother. I am crushed, but he had such a special purpose, and I pray to have friends like these someday.
Life is so, so short everyone. Let’s make the best of it, no matter what. Let’s make sure the enemy hears our roar, and that he cannot and will not move us, regardless of the evil that we experience. We will destroy it!!
Tau Ka Tau!!!
I have watched this video At least 20 times and every time I do I get choked up. . The loyalty they had for their friend and the sadnes is so overwhelming, but also admirable.
Wirklich wundervoll mir kommen direkt sie Tränen . Einfach toll gemacht... jerom hat es gesehen da bin ich mir sicher.
My soul cries whenever I see this video, May Allah Almighty bless them all.
I got so emotional after watching this, respect the culture.
I am emotionally wasted. Thanks for that masterpiece and brotherhood moment.
its like my brain understood the vibe. You don't cry here. you chant and recite to send your loved one off with power. for me, it would be an honor to even Just be a Part of one of these ceremonies.
I forgot about this and now that I’m seeing it again I’m full of emotion. I adore how even the women joined in. I don’t know what culture this is, but it’s beautiful..
This haka really gets me emotional. I don't even wanna think about how it would feel like to lose one of my brothers
6 years later I keep coming back because of the pure emotion. It helps me feel when I'm numb. It reminds me people would miss me.
Just a 40 y/o man crying for your loss and the pain and strength displayed here. God bless you all
This video is keep showing on my timeline and i keep avoiding it because i know it will make me cry. May his soul rest in peace
No matter how many times I watch this, I cry. Jared's pain is phenomenal, you can feel it through the VT. Fair play to him, for doing this for his brother. 😥 😭. .
I want to climb through the screen when they have finished and give the lad at the front a hug x😢
This was so powerful. I feel like I don't deserve to watch this. Wow. I was seriously overcome with so much emotion
Still the most powerful expression of love and grief I have ever seen.
Watched this for the 6 times and I cried 6 times too. Can't understand the words but the chant pierces to my soul along with the guy who look so broken but gave all his strength to lead the haka.
I am from Michigan never traveled far. But I swear this one of the most beautiful rituals I've ever witnessed. May your love one be happy
Anyone else binge watching these and crying? These are so beautiful my heart chakra is exploding with love.
I’m a Pom but lived in New Plymouth for a while as a kid, I remember Haka for our PE teacher, it was electric. Haka is spiritual and goes beyond understanding, your brother no doubt heard this and is in the next life smiling 🙌🏻❤️🙌🏻 SKÅL!!!!!! 🙌🏻
Beautiful and power. Definitely made me cry. Sorry for your loss
Your name is a mouthful!
Every time I come across these videos I feel like I've somehow stood by and watched something ancient and sacred, something I don't understand at all, but feel the emotions from. Chills ...
Yup! The young man that was in about the middle... he started to tear up.. but remained strong for his fallen brother.. I wish I had that strength when my brother... passed away to appear at his funeral. Jake.. I’m sorry man.. even thou we’re not related by blood.. being friends since we were 5 yrs old is! My the Gods rest ur soul brother!
I've watched many hakas in my life and this is one of the most emotionally raw I've seen - definitely brought tears to my eyes. This is also the first one where the screaming and screeching was so prominent - imagine hearing that barely contained rage on the battlefield - I'd shit myself.
The way the guy seamlessly took up leading the chant when the brother broke down - if it was me that guy would have my undying love and respect for life.
Crying like a newborn. So emotional.
Beautiful words. Love from New Zealand 👍
@@southpacificpyrex1708 Much love right back at you from the UK.
This chills me to the damn core. There is no way to show emotion and power than Haka. As a Canadian that has no knowledge in this, I absolutely love it and wish I could one day become involved in something this beautiful ♥️ RIP ♥️
Same here in the States. I wish we had cultural roots like this to keep us strong for now and generations to come
TeaFos The Haka is powerful. USA Does have a powerful culture though. I am a Native American and our private dances (not ones put on for show but on privately own stomp grounds) are just one of many powerful parts of the Indigenous Northern Americans. Also, the Maori embraces all people; so, you or anyone can perform the Haka as long as you do it correctly and at appropriate times.
Same here. Such a beautiful display of grief and courage. Love the culture.
I did this battle cry in the military when my freind died as a Spanish solider .... I feel that guy it’s a battle cry that makes you stronger. And it’s a cry that’s beauty at is finest.
This isn’t my culture, but it shook me to my core. I would be honored if my family and friends honored me in such a beautiful manner. I can tell that the young man in front was especially close to the person for whom this ceremony is performed. Profoundly moving and cathartic.
I think it was his brother
He is hurting so bad. My heart yearns for his courage to persevere!
This is so powerful and immersive. I teared up without hesitation, which happens rarely (dead inside). I wish I could open up and express my grief that way.
The island culture is so amazing. The way everyone honored this man is beyond words. You brothers did a great job honoring him. I have so much respect for you all.
I'm not of this kind I'm Mexican but I respect this and it honestly put me in tears...I respect all cultures and how they grieve and all is very beautiful and heart warming much respect 🙏💕
