As a Welsh man who grew up with the game of rugby and who has been lucky enough to live and spend some time in New Zealand I’ve nothing but the upmost respect for the Māori people and their culture, every Māori person I met made me feel very welcome in their country. Beautiful people, beautiful country. RIP Jonah Lomu 11.
I am Moari and grew up idolising Jonah( like most back then) but I thought I would just correct you that Jonah was Tongan but born in N.Z.
@@mozzyboilup7052 I only stated my respect for the Māori people and the Māori people that made me feel welcome in their country. I didn’t state/mention Mr Lomu’s National identity or birth place.
Not Maori, but imma Samoan from NZ and also share a respect for my Maori people.. Just wanted to say I love the Welsh culture, esp your Anthem!
New Zealand 🇳🇿 is amazing i am rugby player too so want to go ..
The HAKA is the most powerful war cry .designed to put fear into enemies I've seen it live it's spine chilling to see ....RIP JONAH credit to the Tongan people and new Zealand the country he was born in .....
As a 67 year old Englishman , who has always been a rugby fan, I will salute you guys for the total respect you gave this video. Jonah was , and still is a legend. I have never seen you guys so quiet whilst you are watching something... Thanks .
What a brilliant reaction, lads. I'm English and in my 50s, so I watched in awe, as Jonah destroyed Test sides to pieces, in his pomp. To watch his funeral again, after a good few years, and still have to wipe tears away, and see you lads felt much the same, was emotional.
To watch him in his hey days and to then see him not here anymore really was devastating. He was the one that made me want to watch Union. I am an All Black supporter, but it wasn’t until Jonah came onto the scene that I started watching it vigorously. I am in my 40’s now, first time I saw him I was in my teens. He will never be forgotten.
As a french watching him steam rolling our national team again and again... i was in the exact same emotional state.
Good luck for saturday 👍
He was the face of Rugby Union and a great ambassador for the sport
The thing with a haka at a funeral is not only are they expressing the immense respect for the departed. They are also asking the ancestors to prepare heaven for this great fallen warrior to enter it
And we can all rest assured that Jonah and other deceased, great ABs have formed the most rockin, awesome heaven-based ABs team, which is utterly dominating the Heaven's Rugby tournaments...
@@lyndasutherland6165 So you saying you're going to beat up on us Aussies in the afterlife too .... respect, wouldn't want it any other way (as long as we get to play cricket in the summer) ....
@@aussiesurfer805 Respect! I would never prevent you from your Aussie cricket; just don't laugh too loudly at us... while you spank us. You guys are gods when it comes to cricket.
Living in New Zealand all my life... Jonah is a national treasure. He's the man 😊
Jonah Lomu was a phenomenon, a once-in-a-lifetime rugby player. When he burst onto the world scene at the Rugby World Cup in 1995, his stature, strength and sheer power had never been seen before. He started his playing career as a 'forward', a numbr 8 in the scrum, but later moved to the wing as he could run incredibly fast - something so bizarre given his size. Lomu was a true battering ram, able to get supporters from both sets of teams off their seats. I know I'll never see a player like him again in my life. That's how truly unique and special he was.
Perfect send off for the gentle giant.. Much loved worldwide..
He would steamroll through our teams but you could do nothing but admire him..
Seen this many times now and will always bring a tear to my eye. ✌🏽
That was one of the most beautiful, heartbreaking things I’ve watched in a while..I love the Hakka, it’s such a special part of Rugby, so spiritual, full of magic and intensity. Jonah was loved by many of us South Africans, he was a wizard of Rugby…an icon RIP
This has got to be one of your best videos, the respect you guys showed whilst watching was great to see even though you only just know of him. Much respect to you all.
RIP Jonah Lomu.
Growing up in the Pacific islands, every kids wanna be Jonah Lomu. Picked up the rugby ball and try to run it straight. He was loved by rugby fans from all over the world. A.good human being in and out the field. Thank you for reacting to this video guys. Rest In Peace big guy, Rest In Peace.
So you too liked Jonah's sidestep?
I still cant believe how he didn't end up a world cup winner in 1995. When I saw him against England I thought well that's rugby over as a game 🤣 A truely world star and an awesome human being. 6ft5", 19 stone, 100 metres in under 11 seconds. He didn't have to go around you, he'd go over you, literally.
A respectful reaction to the great, one and only Jonah Lomu, thank you guys✌️
respect gents. i can feel your emotion. you re okay to cry. grown man cries too
Very respectable reaction, lads. Thankyou. It's a sport of warriors. I cried watching this the first time..
He took Rugby to a new level. The Haka is worth a 7 point head start in a Rugby game. The opposition know they're in for a tough game.
It's in some ways so difficult to describe a moment like this. The sheer respect and veneration, these giants of men at the precipice of breaking down, the younger generation saying goodbye to their hero, the echo of an ancient culture harmonising in the air.
If you aren't moved by this, I don't even know what could move you.
Beautifully said
From South Africa May this legend RIP , His death was sad for all of us who ever loved Rugby even if we were supposed enemies on the field , the respect our country has for this man is far and beyond! To a legend who will never be forgotten on the rugby field!
For us poly people we see Rugby as a way to support our family financially, growing up we all idolized Lomu, he was more than just an Icon, a Legend an unstoppable player, he was proof that us polys can make it
Them Pacific Islanders are insanely strong and Lomu was probably one of the strongest,Great talent and destroyed England on Numberous occasions,R.I.P Jonah Lomu
Impossible not to shed a tear watching this again. Such respect for the big man.
Kia ora from NZ 🇳🇿 very respectful piece on Jonah and our Haka thank you 🙏 subscribed for your honest humble respect of our culture. I was blessed enough to have meet a few times Jonah and had normal everyday conversation with him. He really was a beautiful humble down to earth human. ❤
guys the sombre tone you discussed this says it all, you showed respect and for that you get respect
This is surreal. I see Grant Kereama every so often. I know his family. Grant donated one of his kidneys to Jonah before he died. It is strange to see you guys on the other side of the World look at people we know. Aroha fellas from Aotearoa (New Zealand).
This is pretty cool like every group paying their respects. Lomu was the achilles of rugby
Black and purple are traditional colours in Tongan funerals (in case you were curious about the significance behind the purple columns).
I remember him back in the 90s. He was a superstar in the world of sport
I remember seeing Jonah Lomu play at Wembley Stadium in the early 90s when I was young'un...Legend RIP Jonah
Good stuff lads. Some really good "emotional haka" videos, which involve hakas at weddings. You can see and feel the passion as the bride, groom, family, mates, rugby mates etc etc do it together. Very moving.
So moving……no age to pass away….the Hakka makes me cry…..you guys should check out the one where a young guy who’s brother has passed , that Hakka is so very emotional it makes me sob 😢😢😢😢😢
Jonah was special. Your reaction and respect is special too
Even if he helped to beat your own side, you still had to recognise and admire the brilliance of the man, gone far too soon.
My dad played rugby.... We sat and watched ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Rest in peace big man jonah lomu one of the all time greats we were blessed to have him play for cardiff blues in Wales an honour a blessing a gift
Jonah was a legend RIP
I doubt very much there’s anything in sport as emotional as a haka..
This is the powerful strength of how great the Culture of the Maori people is, and fortunately it has been adopted by other indigenous people in our country as well as around the world.
Kamau te wehi 🤪🤙✊🙌🖖😘
Man when those schoolboys started their haka I was a mess.
RIP legend.
If you want something more positive in the rugby region, check out Englands Joe Marler. He’s the ‘class clown’, makes everyone laugh. Should be a 10 minute video on RUclips of some of his funny moments.
I always get goosebumps watching the Haka.
im an German living in Australia I was lucky enough to see jonah Lomu live on the Field...??? He was the Greatest ever Rugby Union Player of the century....????? RIP Warrior Lomu 11 gone way too soon......
A life that burned brighter than most, unfortunately extinguished too soon. However his presence will be felt around the world forever.
Still brings tears to these Australian eyes. Was that school the same school that sent their teacher off with such passion?
total respect to all involved
Fantastic reaction guys. Legend
Don't know about anyone else but it made me cry
He was loved by us all. You know he was the nicest kindest man. The All Blacks will often practice at schools and Jonah would be absolutely hounded by the kids. Mine just idolised him. To see him play live was an experience. His talent was head and shoulders above all else. Imagine the superman he would have been if he didn't suffer with kidney disease. Just imagine.
The mats worn by some of the mourners are a Tongan tribute to Jonah's Tongan ancestry. Mats this size are funeral mats of woven pandanus, tied with sennit cords and worn as a sign of respect.Although Jonah grew up in NZ, his parents immigrated from Tonga.
Kidney disease is quite common in South Pacific Island people and being pummelled by half a rugby team didn't help. We adored our Jonah as much as we adore and revere the Haka.
A true legend. Rip jonah
Wow, an incredible send off for an incredible Man.
Just a lil fun fact for you lads. That first guy you saw on the screen buck shelford, he torn is nut sack during a game of rugby, got his nuts stitched back up at half time and carried on for the rest of the game. These legends are just built different. Just like Jonah, I believe he got a kidney transplant came back to the game and still dominated, he was crazy gifted RIP Lomu.
Should check out Dan Carter and Richie McCaw
That always effects me when I watch that
Was my child hood hero, what a player!
Did you know that the Haka is performed by The All Blacks rugby team before all international matches please check this out
How sad to see his wife and children walking behind his coffin but it must be a comfort the love and affection not to mention respect shown that day
04:20 The 2nd guy from the front was Joeli Vindiri (Fijian) built in a very similar mould as Jonah 1.98m (6ft 7in),120kg (270), a smaller vesion, 1.9m (6ft 4in), 100kg (225lbs). They both played for Counties Manukau, Auckland Blues and both were All Blacks.
Only a handful of players, maybe fewer, could ever claim to have equal billing in a match featuring Jonah Lomu - but Joeli Vidiri was one of them.
The Tongan kid who changed rugby forever, and the Fijian bloke who scored tries for fun: for a few years in the late 1990s, the Jonah and Joe show was the hottest ticket in New Zealand rugby. Stephen Donald (No. 10 -F irst Five Eighth or Fly Half and Rugby World Cup 2011 winning All Black Hero) used to sit on the grass bank at Pukekohe Stadium and watch that show every chance he got. So did Kieran Read (No. 8 & All Black Captain).
If Jonah was the ever-present danger, Joeli was the unknown quantity. That’s not to say his extraordinary set of skills had somehow flown under the radar, it’s just that with Joeli you could never quite pick where he was going to be. One moment he would be hovering in back play, the next he was hitting the line at full pace. Not many people got a hand to him in those situations. He played as if he saw the future.
He wanted his future to be with the All Blacks, but his devastating form for Counties and the Blues through the first two years of rugby’s professional era in 1996 and 1997 went unrewarded. He had already represented Fiji and therefore had to wait out a mandatory three-year eligibility stand-down. There is no doubt - at least there should not be - that were it not for IRB regulations, he would have been an All Blacks star in those two years. In 1998 he won Commonwealth Games gold in Kuala Lumpur with the New Zealand Sevens team, and that same year he made his All Blacks debut, replacing Jonah Lomu in a test against England, scoring a try.
As it was, Vidiri played just twice for the All Blacks. Australia claimed victory in his final outing, doubt claimed victory over his future selection, kidney disease claimed victory over his playing career.
Jonah Lomu was a much-vaunted & feared football player but a far greater man & human being. Sadly & greatly missed
the VERY FIRST world rugby superstar
Hairs on the back of my neck still standing up. Chills.
He was the Michael Jordan of RugbyUnion
I remember watching this with my mum in the UK we both wore the number 11 and both cried 🤧
@4:53 I call him the Great 1. Buck Shelford, the only undefeated All Black captain.
Jonah lomu is tonga,hes family and ancestors originated from ha'apai whitch is from tonga,hes brothers still live,but his uncles played rugby in tonga for years,but he was born in NZ,his nickname "lomu" is a tongan name
It’s wonderful to see black and white paying their respects, not only to Jonah but to the culture and tradition of the Haka.
This is old. But still felt the need to say imagine trying to mess with this funeral. You’re better off trying to get into Area 51.
Wow, how emotional
His college and all blacks team haka. The faces goes back. Buck shelford another legend. Tana umanga. Cool reaction. And see his tribute again ❤
Impossible is nothing...Jonah lomu (Adidas) video.
Jonah Lomu. May be rest in perfect peace. Heartbreaking.
Much loved and missed JL
Heart broken ❤❤
Upsetting,and now Pele has passed away ❤❤❤❤

HAKA DOCUMENTARY

👍👍
i met jonah in timaru macdonalds cool guy missed much
A gentle giant gone far too soon,loved by the rugby world,adored by New Zealand thank you guys so much for the respect you gave this moving ceremony,as an Australian I cried when we played against him but I cried when he was gone.
Jonah Lomu saved the All Blacks
The symbolic release of 40 Doves😳🤔
This is a lesson for Americans, how other countries embrace the native population rather than exploit it
Special player... Like 6'5, crazy speed... Qepd
rest in peace uncle
White NZers take the Hakka as seriously as their Maori brethren ... a display of pride, strength and unity. Usually the world's best Rugby nation at any given time
You haven't reacted to the world famous rugby ref. Nigel Owens being Nigel Owens. Make sure you have subtitles if you have problems with the welch accent. It's interesting to watch the respect he is given by 'huge' stars and rugby legends in their own right. Most famous quote "I'm straighter than that one". Second reprimanding ungentlemanly behaviour" the football stadiums down that way" "this is not soccer ". "I'll treat you like adults when you behave like adults"..
This is what is lost in the states, tribe has nothing to
do with skin colors. Dad is native, mom is white. Yet
my white mom eats more traditional food, and
embraces native culture more then my native aunts
do

Dude's, Can you PLEASE stop calling Jonah Lomu A Freak of Nature, I get 🤬😡 when y'all do that🤬! He's a Human Machine and a Legend, not those word's y'all use to describe him, How rude, where is your Respect😤 Comment by Tracy Iraia 🇳🇿🌏🇳🇿 NZ 😎 Sorry for the comment but I say it when I hear 💩
Oh shut up Karen
10:23 this is why you guys get robbed of great rugby talent in the US. The US eagles will alway be challenged by the NFL. Unless you guys put more money into Rugby you will never have rugby culture. Rugby is the ultimate test of team athleticism.
