On a fine day, the sand dunes at Hokianga in the far distance from the top of Maungataniwha can be easily seen. A forest road goes to the top of the maunga with Mangamuka at its base.

Indians are much more smarter than racist historians portrayed them. 😊

You are incorrect stating that the Huntly power station was built in 1983 (started construction) 02:56 . I was working there in 1977 when Elvis Presley died, and it was well underway when I started there. What else is incorrect in this video, I wonder.

Kia Ora .. Not far from my Settlement there is a Split Boulder known as ''Tipiré'' near The Anglican Church and Primary School of Quop ( ''Yawning'' ) Village

Kia Kaha kiwi

Thanks mate👍🇳🇿

Is cool how the Maori came all the way here in canoes from the Philippines stopping in different places on the way. Have you ever thought going to the Philippines and meet the indigenous Maori left there I have

God bless you all 🙏🏻📜⛪😇🗡️⚔️🛡️👍🏻👌🏻💪🏻✊🏻🇦🇺🇳🇿🇮🇱🇺🇲🇨🇦🇬🇧🏇🏻🎣

I used to live in the old Cameron Flat homestead in the early 80s.

What is the song at the beginning

CX Sorry that there's no picture of the old hotel a victim of turning one hundred and loss of 2 and a half per cent depreciation per annum. THE LESSEE WENT ON TO BURN DOWN THE OLD Frasertown hotel near Wairoa

The Oruanui eruption, 26,000 years ago, produced a flow of lava, which rode on superheated gas and steam to the Bombay Hills - which it flowed over to bury Auckland metres deep with lava. I imagine this same flow would have extended over to Great Barrier island as well, as the sea level was 200 metres lower then

About time Wairakei was closed and Geyser Valley-a rare a valuable asset of global significance was restored

I was a worker at Huntly power station

This tells you how dum pakeha are and how much they dont know 😂

May those who cut these trees never rest in peace.

The stupid narrator is sayings this like they took down the tree like its an act of greatness.

I have alot of Maori family and they have land but will not home their family why can't they build on their land

As an Australian it is one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen..

The pronunciation of place names is a bit off.

this really hits keep it up my g

Sht cracks me up! Grew in a pile of mud 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

As a dopey English guy, aware, but not actually aware of the NZ..and Oz soldiers being sent to Vietnam, this past few years, since I turned 60 I have read all there is to read about the Anzacs who served in Vietnam. The Anzac nurses….not that they will ever admit, but them girls really were irreplaceable for the troops. To have a warm, kind hearted nurse taking care of you…. That’s akin to your Mother being there taking care of you….Dont forget, Soldiers are tough as nails, but soft as sh*t when it comes to needing their Mothers to take care of them. Same goes for the Medivacs…those guys went into the very area’s where others feared to tread. There are no words to describe their levels of courage and bravery. I will never forget your courage Anzacs, neither will I ever forget what those gutless politicians have done, and continue to do. Until ordinary folk tell these gutless politician scum that what they do is never acceptable, they will just continue lining their pockets with our tax cash without a care.

I remember a ole lady called Grandma Sampson of wakefield, she was a child when the 1929 one happened, went into bush, found a massive exposed gold seam, went out to tell her dad, never found it again

LYDON ISAIA Maori family Nobby Maori

That area that is now Kaiangora was then called that Taupo Desert because it was a frost flat much like the desert road

If anyone wants to read a good story Te Kooti is your man, look him up

At the risk of a comment from the other side of the world, the Erebus tragedy was a prime example of how states will cover up shortcomings and mistakes by those entrusted to carry out the nations aspirations. In this case, the executives of Air New Zealand. Air New Zealand currently is not the same as that in 1979 and is an abstract concept noun. It was the individual executive persons who collectively failed to look after its 257 passengers and crew. On a pure personal level for the deceaseds families, the least that the state can do now is to honour and remember those who lost their lives and have their names inscribed on an appropriate memorial. These has been controversy over the location. Nimbyism has ruled and even Ombudsmen have contributed to the delay. I pray that a new location is found quickly and that any compromise required to achieve the end result is reached with the minimum of bad feeling that has bedevilled the location. Let the memorial be built NOW. The truth is gradually being revealed as to the cause of the accident. The errors and the lies made and told during the Inquiries are clear. The human frailty in the legal arena with the addition of the mistakes made by the judiciary are clear. Justice Mahon’s famous quote “I am forced reluctantly to say that I had to listen to an orchestrated litany of lies” was the truth. He was entitled to use those words. The failure of all 10 judges of the NZ Appeal Court and at the Privy Council to recognise that entitlement, in fact his duty, is a matter of record. The Chairman/head judge at the Privy Council was Lord Diplock who in 1975 approved the earlier 1974 judgments of Lords Denning, Orr and Lawton confirming that the rules of Natural Justice DO NOT EXTEND to delaying the issue of a report by reconvening Inquiries “and put it before the party for his comments before including it.” Then later “ They (the commissioners) should be subject to no rules save this: they must be fair. This being done, they should make their export with COURAGE AND FRANKNESS keeping nothing back. THE PUBLIC INTEREST DEMANDS IT.” In re Pergamon Press 1970-1975 and Maxwell. Those were the exact words approved by Diplock just 8 years before he mistakenly criticised Mahon for inadvertently failing to give the liars the Natural Justice they deserved. Diplock forgot his own judgment. Justice Peter Mahon’s report was totally correct in every way and wrote his words with COURAGE AND FRANKNESS. Mahon’s words should have been approved by all 10 judges. The New Zealand prime minister and chairman of Air NZ issued the apology in 2019 and it is now time for the Legal Eagles to apologise for their systemic failures within the establishment that denigrated Mahon. Otherwise I would say that the Eagles have fallen. There can be no Statute of Limitations on the truth.

American here, found this video after seeing the music video for the song Hatupatu by Alien Weaponry. It was such a cool song and music video that it made me want to learn about this legend, and I instantly recognized "matiti, matata" from the song as soon as the presenter said it in the video. So cool, love this

Haast eagle

Who collects the money???

😓🙏🏻❤️‍🩹

Man thats crazy that Kupe had such a big impact

What do you mean 45 of them signed? Over 500 signed Te Tiriti not the Treaty. Two different documents. Also the Crown did purchase lands accept without the Queens approvel.

Who is the narrator? ... The pronunciation is weird. The Paerata whanau are Ngati te Kohera. Connected to Raukawa thru Pare te Kawa

Was told to bep at this rock when you drive by, the day i tried it my truck got a flat tyer.

Awesome storytelling . Thank you.

RESPECTS 🙏. GRATATUDE. PRAYERS AND THOUGHTS. LORD BLESS OUR KINSHIP AND MATESHIP. GOD BLESS THE VIETNAM ANZACS.

Thank you for helping me have access to learn about my iwi. I wish I had someone to learn from in person.

Devastating 2 say the least all in the name of Money yes very selfish and greedy how short sighted those visionaries were of times gone by 🌿🌳🌱

Sister ship of Wahine, named Queen M, served the Greece-Italy line for a few years at 90's decade. Modern design, owned by Marlines.

The biggest shame is that I am the only one to comment. Bill Pickering is almost unknown in NZ but in space exploration circles he is revered, he was one of the main reasons the US achieved what they did in space exploration in the 60s, 70s, 80s and beyond. Truly almost a science god.

The story I remember was the rock was the one at the lake waro in hikurangi...

The name Kurangaituku sounds extremely Japanese!

I am your hawaiian brother, I am learning about your culture.

Kupe and the other hawaiians were master sailors. My friend was aboard the hoku lea voyaging canoe. He was steering at night. The master navigator Mau Paulig was asleep in the hull. Then a voice came. Mau in his sleep became aware that they were steering off course!! He heard the change in the slap of the wave upon the hull in his sleep!! Such a sense of position

Hatu-patu encounted a Annunaki Diety.

The best 👌

As a railway station masters kid growing up in Hunterville, we had pet eel's in the creek beside our house, that we would go and tap the water and they would come up for some bread.
