For the negative comments about being easy targets for the enemy. This is ceremonial. Furthermore, Haka has been performed prior to assaults in cover. All men can have fear but haka (especially war parties) are actually invoking an ancient God of War. Men in the past performing these things knew full well that they will probably die in an assault but invoking the god will give them the best chance of success. I personally would not want to test an assault formation after they have performed one especially when the Haka has fully possessed them for battle in combination with Tumatauenga and excellent leadership. Just my 5 cents.
unicorn magic was also performed at night time when enemy soldiers were resting. Imagine waking up in the middle of the night hearing these guys all in numbers getting ready to kill.
Ancient Maori Toa (Warriors) understood to die in combat was an honourable ending. So running away from battle was considered the lowest action one could do in the face of death. If your enemy came to have you for lunch. What is there left do? But fight to the very end.
People are just dumb. Think about it in the ancient context, dark night, thick vegetation and you start to hear this stuff, north of a thousand men stamping their feet and chanting, with the mountainside echoing every single decibel.... Your pants would pee their invisible pants man😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😂❤️
There is more tradition in the act of war among my people, the act of a haka is the end of the process, the start of this process is called Te Takapau Wharanui o Tū-kai-tauā, the dedication to Tū Devourer of War Parties. Our warriors would go through a process of tohi and pure to prepare them for death, that death was preferable than shame and cowardice, because we traditionally for our wives, our children and our homes, which made us men fight all that much harder. Our women used to weave tatua, or war belts, which was their way of giving us permission to die on the battlefield and that we took their love with them, many of our laments are composed by women who lost their men or sons in battle, and that is how our warriors were immortalised. We had what was called atua kahukahu, or talisman, that would be carried into battle and incite our warriors into extraordinary feats of bravery and daring, unfortunately, much of this tradition hasn't been practiced, because tagged on to this tradition is the feasting on your enemy's flesh, and cooking prisoners and eating them, this is against the Geneva Convention and would give us an unfair advantage in the fear stakes LOL
My uncles fought in the 28th Maori Battalion against the finest that Nazi Germany put in the field, in North Africa. Haka were always performed prior to combat engagements and always just before dawn. Across no man's land close enough to the German lines too, just so they knew who and what was coming next. Incidentally, bayonet was a favourite weapon of the Maori in close quarters combat.
@@sdepountis Thank you for remembering my ancestors. Too bad we couldn't hold Greece and Crete for long. But we did our best. Thank you for remembering them.
Bro so many people in the comments saying they’d just shoot them, do you think they perform a haka in the middle of the battlefield? Think before you speak.
Ive had a chance to experience this as well. Im not maori myself but my coach in highschool football was and he taught us what it meant and why you do it then we started doing it before games to get hyped up and I can personally attest to how well it works. It just makes you feel like nothing can stop you and you're 10 feet tall or something.
Maori Battalion during the Gallipoli campaign of World War 1. When confront with the task of storming Turkish trenches the Maori Battalion, not expecting to survive, performed a haka. Upon reaching the enemy trenches, they discovered them deserted as the Turkish forces had fled in fear.
It is with regret that NZ participated in that idiotic campaign. It was a half-baked attempt to end a war that was meant to have ended 6 months previously Churchill and Kitchener underestimated the Turkish resolve to preserve their homeland. I have heard stories of the Te Hokowhitu a Tu (the Pioneer Maori Battalion that was at Gallipoli) performing haka but it was not their primary role. They were pioneers, not shooters. But they got to do both.
In their soul. Learnt through respect. At the end, the sentiment wanted to go on, to win. Never defeated. These are some great people the indiginous New Zelanders
"Strike fear into the hearts of your enemies and destroy their hope, heart, spirit and lives at the end and the day will be yours." Respect to our Maori brothers in arms, your spirit and your reputation of no fear and your honor and tradition. Semper Fi.
This is our war chant that calls on all that have died before us all the spirits of our family’s and friends and we have them in our hearts and we ready for War....our culture prides itself on the past we wouldn’t be here without them we wouldn’t still be a Warrior minded culture but we love our country and anyone who’s in our country is family once a Kiwi always a Kiwi..
We can train and display the warrior spirit. We can - but some still deny that within us is the warrior. Here it is on display - challenge it if you dare.
+roddog24 You do understand that the Queen Alexandra's Mounted Rifles exhibits cultural diversity in their members as well as a great deal of care and respect for each other. To single out a "white boy" from the group is ignorant or at best self-defeating. Learn, before lashing out with no reason.
+Tired_Paladin Its obvious you missed the point. I'm a "white boy" so I'll single out any other "white boy" I want. And by calling someone a white boy, isn't really ignorant considering that person is 1) White and 2) Male...so really its just an observation of facts. Learn before trying to be a keyboard commando...
Haka is a necessary part of soldiering. It serves it purpose of lifting the fighting spirit. The haka worked its magic for the Maaori Pioneer Battalion as they put the fear into the Turks from atop Rhododendron Ridge on their way up to Chunuk Bair, Gallipoli. Sure our lads took Chunuk Bair the first time but then lost it later, along with a few good men, but that haka worked its magic and got our lads primed to fight even though death was certain.
They`r the Sons and Daughters of Tu Matauenga (God of War)...i aint gonna let my Soldier War this Dance on his own own ,im jumping in there to AWHI my Brother to let em know you aint ever alone ... if that makes me a Lunatic, so be it .... just get the Fuck out the Way PUKANA
Preform? Your england is proper good 😂😂😂 What makes you individuals doing a haka on their own? Or as you put it on the side of the road. Especially this one. Each individual PERFORMING a haka whether they're combined as one or alone, they're holding and representing the Ihi and mana of the haka that's written before them.
Respect from a Nam vet. If we had you in Nam, one Haka would have ended the war. The enemy would have all ran North. However, the Korean White Horse Division had them running. I want to go to NZ just to film Halas. The Maori tribes had their enemies afraid they would cut off their heads, boil them, and then eat them. This is true.
You did have us in South Vietnam. Victor and Whiskey companies of the 1st Battalion Royal New Zealand Infantry Regiment fought out of and 161 Battery Royal New Zealand Artillery Fired from Taskforce base NuiDat and the Infantry also operated out of FSB The Horse shoe in Phouc tuy province. The NZSAS also operated out of NuiDat. There were instances of US Huey pilots picking up sas patrols and freaking out at their appearance. Worth looking up on Google images , nzsas in Vietnam. Our troops in Vietnam did a great job. The Artillery first operated out of Bien Hoa with the 173rd Airborne from memory. Cheers for your service brother. 👍 ake ake Kia kaha
Let me put you in some shoes. Its hour 22 of a gunfight in Afghanistan. All fire has ceased for now. In the silence you hear the hissing start, and the sound of the haka bouncing off the dusty mountains. The cries of past warriors of the last thousand years, shake forgein soil and souls. All goes quiet, the haka is done. This is no longer the enemies land. This land, belongs to the qamr
Shit dude I always thought the Native American War Dances were cool. I can't stop watching this its awesome. I bet this dance even made Bin Laden shit his pants. LOLOL
There is another video of this same Haka on RUclips, the person taking it must be over on the left side as we look at it as there is no wind noise and their voices are much clearer and to be honest a much better version makes the hair stand up. Has anyone seen it as I can't find it again...
eu gosto de ver como eles tem orgulho de suas raízes e não tem vergonha de demonstrar sua cultura milenar, já aqui se os nossos índios forem fazer a dança de guerra geralmente é por que precisa realmente se defender. Nossa cultura Aborigine é sempre deixada de lado.
I keep watching this video for a years. Goosebumps. Sometime i just saying i heard from them but i feel like im disrespect the maori so i need this lyrics anyone can give me
I have roro mate, brain dead or brain injury. Ka mate is the chant. I guess it means be dead kia kaha is be strong? Kaha is noose. Noose is as in the horn shape of a bull is a norm military attack of forward with a front on each side. Kia Kaha my friend)
El mayor de mis respetos y admiracion desde la tierra de los Incas..🇵🇪..mis hermanos siento mucho respeto por su cultura me encanta que le brinden honor a sus ancestros.
I suppose the coolest romantic thing about this is that these bad ass guys...in fact the entire culture is bad ass ...has a very conscientious lady as the county’s leader. That’s quite cool
Where and when did the haka originate, and what are they saying? They are fierce, and would certainly encourage me to run the other way! Its amazing that such a large group could all be in synch and perform better than some large practiced performing companies! Awesome!
Every tribe (Iwi) has their own haka that relates to their history (Whakapapa) which goes back millennium, haka and other ceremonial customs are learnt by the children before they can walk so they grow up watching learning and participating, the haka comes from the heart, there is no need to practice because it is inside you and your heart, if you see a haka performed by a group of adults, it will make the hair on your neck stand up, it is awesome and you can feel the performers full emotion because they give it their all, I am a kiwi born Samoan and have total respect for my other island brothers and my Maori brothers, we all have one thing that connects us, the oceans that we sailed on thousands of years ago to get to our homes, the haka is a war dance and it does strike fear in enemies that hear it, in war it is done behind cover to make the enemy shake in their boots before running away, much Aroha to you Pat from Aotearoa

Kingston Anderson He did in fact say that, it's well documented dude! But nice try.
I wish the haka was more and more recognized because its emotional and powerful.
Just imagine if we can sing like that
Always love to fight side by side with these fearless crazy Kiwi warriors. Stay frosty brothers!

Yeah true so hopefully they do the HAKA lol
All you need is a gatling gun, no problem ;p
And that's just a light-hearted joke before anyone gets offended for some reason.
My Culture Does Hakas Before War, but the enemy cant see they can only hear it
Incredibly well, I would also like to learn. The haka has such a strong expression ... greetings from Germany
Much Respect...My Brothers Kia Kaha.
