+aotearoa 4eva Tu meke bro, i have preformed more hakas in my life than I can count. When I listen to Umangas leading the haka his voice is sharp and to me It sounds like it is full of pain making the haka even more powerful. It sounds like he is a man with nothing to lose, just my thoughts. Kia Kaha
Not even Arnold Schawzenegger is as badass as Tana Umaga. omfg he looks just like a 9 century islandeer warrior... from out of a video game or movie... damnnnn
"Nothing but Love and Respects to the ABs. Tana Umaga for being a vicious Captain and to lead this first ever Haka, what an honour it must've been for a Samoan. Also great to see Jerry Collins amongst the mix of awesome All Blacks" #Legendary #RestInLoveJC
Umaga is the G.O.A.T. Not only was he an incredible player and the best midfielder the Abs have had in the past 20 years, but the passion he put into Kapa O Pango is unmatched.
This is the team that mesmerized me when I lived in NZ. Will never forget the All Blacks & their team captain Tana Umaga. Even here in the US I tell them about Haka & the All Blacks. I love NZ!
i remember watchn this live them doing this version for the first time was one of the most epic things ive ever witnessed.Tana umaga is my pick for best haka leader
Daniel Eyre No respect for culture whatsoever. Yet yours remains an opinion. Nothing more. To say that you're correct would mean that it's a fact. It's not.
Daniel Eyre Where does herbal tea fit into the theme of culture? Uncouth and uncultured? You do know the haka encompasses the culture of the Maori peoples? And weak? You possibly could not have found a worse adjective to describe a war dance. Oh yes, please do break it down.
Looking back on this haka, I was in my teenage years , With my whanau all around me to greet our most faithful old foe step up to the challenge once again, toe to toe with the strength and speed of the springbok.. No rivalry in sport comes close to the passion portrayed here. The greatest challenge ever, Set down to the greatest challenger ever. This is respect of the highest level.
No matter how many times I watch this....I just want to watch it over and over again because there was nothing but raw emotion in this haka! Tana Umaga echoed through everyone’s soul and you can hear it from the crowd! The moment the All Blacks went down on their knees...the whole stadium shook! The people cheered for these men and you can truly hear it! Nothing but love for the All Blacks. I grew up watching Tana Umaga and watching this just brings tears to my eyes!
This is without a doubt the greatest Haka I have ever seen. I've seen a lot of them and usually they do nothing for me but this just the raw emotion of it especially in the face of Tana Umaga is just breathtaking.
The first ever Kapa O Pango was awesome! As a South African supporter we all were so confused...I remember watching the broadcast when the commentator said "keep an eye on this"...we all were like "yeah another haka"...so what!?...but this blew us away!! unexpected!! could even see it on the South African players faces lol
I played against a New Zealand team in union when I was younger, standing there while they do it was the most incredible experience of my life so much passion and intensity.
Taringa whakarongo! Kia rite! Kia rite! Kia mau! Hi! Ki-a whaka-whenua au i a-hau! 1 Hi! Au-e, Hi! Ko Aotearoa e ngu-ngu-ru nei! 2 Au, Au, Au-ë Ha! Ko kapa o pango e ngu-ngu-ru nei! Au, Au, Au-ë Ha! I ahaha!3 Ka tū te ihi-ihi 4 Ka tū te wana-wana. Ki runga ki te rangi 5 E tū iho nei E tū iho nei. Hi! Ponga rä! 6 Kapa o Pango, Au-e, Hi! Ponga rä! Kapa o Pango, Au-ë, Hi! HA!!!
+Ho Cuz there you go : Let me go back to my first gasp of breath Let my life force return to the earth It is New Zealand that thunders now And it is my time! It is my moment! The passion ignites! This defines us as the All Blacks And it is my time! It is my moment! The anticipation explodes! Feel the power Our dominance rises Our supremacy emerges To be placed on high Silver fern! All Blacks! Silver fern! All Blacks! aue hi!
Tana Umaga, best ever Haka Leader. Look at his agressiveness in the close up. It looks so scary coz' he looks more than a beast than a man. Reminds me of the Predator👹
I remember watching this live, 08:30 am in Scotland! Couldn’t wait for the Kamate kamate! Then this happened and completely blew me away! So raw and so real! Respect from the Celts!
I laughed when the guy got his back slapped. All i could think about was when we were in highschool someone did the exact same thing to one of the boys and he turned around and said ouch what was that for hahaha man that cracked me up. The Haka is part of the identity of New Zealand. It's one of the reasons that makes this country one of the greatest in the world.
Hahaha agree with trance At Hato Paora 3rd form doing kapa haka seniors slapped one of the boyz he laughed and we cracked up lol seniors didn't so we all got punished dahaha Hearty kiwi ae
Daniel Eyre Daniel just shut up you do not know what you are talking about. I live in Aussie they do know the haka and abs even if they do not follow it. You are talking out of your arse. Aussies love rugby when they beat the abs but when they lose they bleat about how nobody watches rugby. You are not a nzer you are an aussie through and through I do not know any kiwi who doesnt love the abs or the haka you are a wolf in sheep's clothing and yes i mean the inference or you are a sad aussie
That was the BEST HAKA EVER Why were they not allowed to do that again????? The idea in sport is to go out & annihilate your opposition Isn't it??? It made the opposing team intimidated & the skin on the back of peoples' necks' just go ughoooo YE
00:55 - 00:58
And that's why i think Umaga is the best haka leader. The emotion and his voice, it's just amazing!
Leon Agalawatta brother from another mother!
Bro him, piri and hosea gear all in a tie for me bro
Auke Brinkman Also looks like the fucking Predator!
He is chanelling the spirits of Maori warriors into the All Blacks
@995sean each to their own, hosea gear in 2010 for the maori against England, still one of the best.
There is real pain in Umagas hakas love it
+aotearoa 4eva listen to the pain in his voice
savage
+aotearoa 4eva Tu meke bro, i have preformed more hakas in my life than I can count.
When I listen to Umangas leading the haka his voice is sharp and to me It sounds like it is full of pain making the haka even more powerful. It sounds like he is a man with nothing to lose, just my thoughts.
Kia Kaha
yeah i agree with you when it was him it sound more powerful for me too
He's one of the few whose ancestors actually did the war dance. Might be part of it.
mrseuugr he is samoan
After almost 15yrs im still here watchin this.. pure madness! The best Haka from the great Tana Umaga!
I showed this to my cat. Now he's a freaking lion.
This is the best comment on CZcams I've found tonight. Bravo sir
Eric Schneider 5/5
LMAO!!!!
fucking funny!!!
you win lol
14 YEARS ON STILL THE GREATEST HAKA
I love how Habana glances over "Like this isn't the haka I'm used to."
Not even Arnold Schawzenegger is as badass as Tana Umaga. omfg he looks just like a 9 century islandeer warrior... from out of a video game or movie... damnnnn
I always called him 'The Predator' as in the alien character from the famous movie. He looked like him with the hair and was just as menacing.
DAMN RIGHT jOHN!!! LEGEND
@M N which one umaga
Haha I've said the same thing many times. Some people are just born closer inline with their ancestors. This man is true on field predator.
Something about Tana Umaga leading in this video makes me pump and goes saiyan mode.
"Nothing but Love and Respects to the ABs. Tana Umaga for being a vicious Captain and to lead this first ever Haka, what an honour it must've been for a Samoan. Also great to see Jerry Collins amongst the mix of awesome All Blacks" #Legendary #RestInLoveJC
I choked a little seeing JC there. #Legend
Definitely the single best Haka ever thanks to Tana Umaga.
Performed against us the Boks their greatest rivals ! , we took it as a huge sign of respect , a great haka
Best rivalry in international rugby. No contest. The match in Wellington was evidence of that!
Piri Weepu's face during the slo mo was intimidating with his tongue out.💪💪💪
RIP Jerry :(
I love umanga there's just something about him :)
He's a Samoan leading a new Zealand haka. Which is pretty awesome tbh
Three month old comment. But perhaps the best comment I’ve read about the haka. You’re right bro, it’s very special and reflects Aotearoa today.
No one, before or since - has led the Haka like Tana. Legend.
Umaga is the G.O.A.T. Not only was he an incredible player and the best midfielder the Abs have had in the past 20 years, but the passion he put into Kapa O Pango is unmatched.
I think Piri matches him in leading the haka and I think Ma'a is considered the greatest midfielder
This is the team that mesmerized me when I lived in NZ. Will never forget the All Blacks & their team captain Tana Umaga. Even here in the US I tell them about Haka & the All Blacks. I love NZ!
+Julie Carlile That's awesome
You just have to tell us that you lurgy nz
i remember watchn this live them doing this version for the first time was one of the most epic things ive ever witnessed.Tana umaga is my pick for best haka leader
If I am a south African player in this situation, I would have faked an injury and limped out of the pitch #TeamAllBlacks
Mkorofi I still get goosebumps watching this 10 years later and I'm a kiwi...Imagine what was going through Habana's mind? "Should I collapse now?'lol
Josh McBroom ….continues by getting his nails done and having a herbal tea…
Daniel Eyre "to pathetically reassure himself"
Daniel Eyre No respect for culture whatsoever. Yet yours remains an opinion. Nothing more. To say that you're correct would mean that it's a fact. It's not.
Daniel Eyre Where does herbal tea fit into the theme of culture?
Uncouth and uncultured? You do know the haka encompasses the culture of the Maori peoples? And weak? You possibly could not have found a worse adjective to describe a war dance.
Oh yes, please do break it down.
00:55 Now thats a War Chief ready to lead men to battle
June 2019 still watching...still getting the chills!
Looking back on this haka,
I was in my teenage years ,
With my whanau all around me to greet our most faithful old foe step up to the challenge once again, toe to toe with the strength and speed of the springbok..
No rivalry in sport comes close to the passion portrayed here.
The greatest challenge ever,
Set down to the greatest challenger ever.
This is respect of the highest level.
💯
0:49 Habana is so confused seeing Kapa O Pango for the first time 😂
samoa
+Levi Feleti What about Samoa?
+Ali Akbar “Godzilla316” Hussain Shah Confused!probably shitting himself seeing Jerry Collins doing it.
He was more like oh $hit.... This is not what I am used to...
yeah not used to grown men dancing around like girls
Hard to imagine haka without fearless warrior Tana Umaga.
No matter how many times I watch this....I just want to watch it over and over again because there was nothing but raw emotion in this haka! Tana Umaga echoed through everyone’s soul and you can hear it from the crowd! The moment the All Blacks went down on their knees...the whole stadium shook! The people cheered for these men and you can truly hear it! Nothing but love for the All Blacks. I grew up watching Tana Umaga and watching this just brings tears to my eyes!
Awesome! A video of the first Kapa o Pango where you get to see the replay of Piris throat slit. That was picture perfect right there.
yeah man:)
14 yrs later still the best
The first time will always be the most special...
15 years later still send the chills throughout my body
This is without a doubt the greatest Haka I have ever seen. I've seen a lot of them and usually they do nothing for me but this just the raw emotion of it especially in the face of Tana Umaga is just breathtaking.
Best NZ haka ever performed in my opinion. So raw!
The first ever Kapa O Pango was awesome! As a South African supporter we all were so confused...I remember watching the broadcast when the commentator said "keep an eye on this"...we all were like "yeah another haka"...so what!?...but this blew us away!! unexpected!! could even see it on the South African players faces lol
the best haka ever been put on CZcams !!
I've seen many all blacks hakas but I will never forget this one. I lived in aus when this happened, I was like wow!
Nobody will do it like Tana
+Daniel Eyre nop
he is the best ...
no , he has the spirit to do it better than the other ... he is the best at doing it ;)
I like him very much and I love the haka , it's part of their culture ;)
"their" is not tana, it's the all blacks in general
2022, still unmatched. The best!
Love Tana. That’s real passion
I played against a New Zealand team in union when I was younger, standing there while they do it was the most incredible experience of my life so much passion and intensity.
All my respect to Tana Umaga!
Greetings from a Puma fan
1:02 The way his voice shrills for that tense "I A HAHA!"
That is the way it's supposed to be done.
Haunting and Ferocious!
Damn man Tana Umaga lead the haka like an army sergeant preparing his troops for war. Goosebumps.
0:56 Tana Uma was going mental and 1:03 he just totally lost the plot. Absolutely loved it.
The greatest one ever,can't believe it's been almost 15 years,that was magic
cant believe its been 10 years since ABs 1st done Kapa O Pango I still get chills when they do it now
Lol when he slapped his teammate on the back even I felt it
Goosebumps🔥🔥🔥The greatest sight pre game in All of sports.
I was at this game 😀, RIP the mighty Carisbrook.
Beautiful tana umaga❤❤❤❤
Here's the thing. They're cutting their own throats. Clearly a symbolic gesture about what they're prepared to sacrifice.
Man as a kid in hawaii I was learning this on youtube
Best haka all time. Umaga is da man
Taringa whakarongo!
Kia rite! Kia rite! Kia mau!

Feel the power

+Geo Rge Just brilliant, thank you!
Thank you for the text of that the all blacks are saying. So much power and energy. Absolutely brilliant
I remember the watching this live still gives me chills
I believe this is the best haka of all time
Tana Umaga = the best haka leader ever
1:20 "We're fucked"
1:29 "shit.."
Tana Umaga, best ever Haka Leader. Look at his agressiveness in the close up. It looks so scary coz' he looks more than a beast than a man. Reminds me of the Predator👹
I'm drunk but I saved this to my playlist years ago. No other word but iconic.
Ali Williams went swimming 1:19...
+Big Russ Just jk
BAHAHAHAHA
Hahahahahahaha
lmao how is it even possible to move your head that fast
😂😂😂
The final score on this day in Dunedin, NZ was 31-27 to the All Blacks against South Africa.
Umaga really poured his soul into this.
💯
tj perenara lookis like he is doing a performance. Tana is leading his troops to war.
no one has ever done it like Umaga... he was scary..
Nothing rivals the scream in that voice from Tana. One scary unit of a geezer.
I remember watching this live, 08:30 am in Scotland! Couldn’t wait for the Kamate kamate! Then this happened and completely blew me away!
So raw and so real! Respect from the Celts!
Tana Umaga🔥🔥
Goosebumps again 18 years later.
1:24 bro chills
Pure passion from Umaga, best Haka
Incredible. That said the best Haka i've ever seen was the 2003 RWC semi final, All Blacks v the Wallabies. George Gregan staring at them. Incredible.
Best haka Tana Umaga is a legend
Nobody led the gala like tana
I laughed when the guy got his back slapped. All i could think about was when we were in highschool someone did the exact same thing to one of the boys and he turned around and said ouch what was that for hahaha man that cracked me up. The Haka is part of the identity of New Zealand. It's one of the reasons that makes this country one of the greatest in the world.
Hahaha agree with trance
At Hato Paora 3rd form doing kapa haka seniors slapped one of the boyz he laughed and we cracked up lol seniors didn't so we all got punished dahaha
Hearty kiwi ae
Daniel Eyre You should by a ticket to Oz and live with New-Zealand born Quade Cooper
Daniel Eyre Daniel just shut up you do not know what you are talking about. I live in Aussie they do know the haka and abs even if they do not follow it. You are talking out of your arse. Aussies love rugby when they beat the abs but when they lose they bleat about how nobody watches rugby. You are not a nzer you are an aussie through and through I do not know any kiwi who doesnt love the abs or the haka you are a wolf in sheep's clothing and yes i mean the inference or you are a sad aussie
Daniel Eyre you can't spell legendary without leg day. And since you can't spell former without the latter i hereby declare you a Muppet.
Daniel Eyre almost
1:06 Piri Weepu was really out of him! O.O
Best haka ever, without a doubt.
On 0:49 the guy was like "we're so dead"
"the guy" was Brian Havana best winger
Tana is a beaaast. Mu favorite all black along with Jonah Lomu and Dan Carter
I was there that night...epic haka epic win abs were on fire ❤
We (South Africa) knew we'd lost this match before the match had even kicked off 😂
Most intense All Blacks haka I’ve ever seen 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The best haka of all times in my opinion
I love it!!!!
The best haka ever. Umaga is incredible. Big respect from France
I feel the whole history of his ancestors in his voice and this haka
Jeez! Umaga really summons the Gods!
I was at this game, it was my first AB game to attend. It was awesome!
Vicious!! Love it!
woohoo... Goose bumps....
RIP Jerry Collins... and Dougie Howlett's back
Muito bom este video , esses caras arrazam !
se levarmos isto para vida do dia dia nada nos para !!!!!!!!
What an amazing tradition ♥
Tana and Piri had to be my favourite haka leaders
Best ever! Literal chills!
Esta es la mejor haka de todas. Nuestra pasión, equipo, foco en resultados, excelente!
Tana Umaga, so fierce,,,
We once did this haka in high school, our team won 40-0 :)
Jama Ka Sijadu the haka effect🙂
R.I.P. Jerry Collins
This was the day modern rugby changed. Epic!!!
I remember it :) it was a shock! :D
One of the best sights in sport
Who else gets goosebumps from this lol
That was the BEST HAKA EVER Why were they not allowed to do that again????? The idea in sport is to go out & annihilate your opposition Isn't it??? It made the opposing team intimidated & the skin on the back of peoples' necks' just go ughoooo YE
they do it... the throat slit gesture had to be removed for obvious reasons tho... they dont want life-threathing symbols
