Coconut Tree Climbing with Kap Tafiti- Polynesian Cultural Center Oahu, Hawaii 1995

This is the "Coconut Tree Climbing demonstration" segment from my hi-8 recording and experience of Chief Sielu Avea, the first "Samoan Comedian" in the summer of 1995 at the Polynesian Cultural Center located in Laie, Oahu, Hawaii.
For more information on Chief Sielu and his remarkable story, look for him on Wikipedia. I should also add that he starred in a "short" 20 minute movie aptly entitled "Chief" that was shown at the Sundance festival and is now available on a popular streaming service that rhymes with "dime."

I came to hawaii for the first time in the summer of 1995 and visited the Polynesia Cultural Center. I probably saw Kap back then but didn't know who he was. I came back this May 2022 after 27 years and saw Kap. After the show, I went to introduce myself to him and told him that I saw him on youtube. He shook my hands and we took pictures.

This feels wild seeing young Kap, it's like he never changed since then.

Probably the most underrated video on RUclips.
