When Sikhs met Maoris, the scene was really shocking, and the crowd couldn't help but laugh heartily!
Recently, on the streets of South Auckland, New Zealand, a group of Sikhs encountered a group of local Maori youths. Without hesitation, the latter immediately performed the traditional Haka dance - staring, stomping, sticking out their tongues, and shouting loudly, with highly intimidating movements.
The Sikhs were clearly taken aback, some instinctively took a few steps back, some looked confused, and even some couldn't help but laugh. The onlookers laughed so hard that they were rolling on the ground, and people rushed to take photos of this dramatic scene with their mobile phones.
The Maori Haka dance is far more than just "yelling loudly." It was originally a war dance used to intimidate enemies before battles, and it can also be seen in welcoming guests, commemorating the deceased, or major ceremonies. In modern New Zealand, the Haka has become a national cultural symbol - from the All Blacks' pre-game performance in rugby to school graduation ceremonies, its presence can be seen everywhere.
This way of defeating one unique culture with another does seem somewhat humorous.
