the Maori Haka

haka I recently saw video of the guards at the Pakistan – India border doing combative drill while taking down their respective flags. Awesome!

It reminded me of the fantastic Maori Haka war chant. Most people know it from the All Blacks Rugby Team.

Actually the All Blacks introduced a revised Haka in the summer of 2005. It includes a throat slash gesture, controversial but appropriate — I thought. They typically slaughter opponents.

On the All Blacks official website:
