leyy121 no! Don’t tell anyone, it’s our secret

Air New Zealand has some of the best marketing campaigns I've seen, brilliant

@Alastair Scott yeah nah colbert's US audience is the target of this nz series. so it is not low tier. its native advertising. if you like colbert you are more likely to pay attention to this than a commercial you see on normal tv. plus colbert's youtube channel has high engagement rate. you dnt have that in normal ad

Peter Jackson already beat him to it.

9:35

Lol.

Accurate. Can confirm. #ProudKiwi

There's a few species of spiders and sharks here that can get ya, oh and earthquakes are sometimes rough, but yeh it's pretty accurate

@Jacob Zondag we yall drive on the wrong side aswell lmao

@Jacob Zondag I know that makes you feel smart but that's an argument between the English and the French, I'm niether of those and I doubt you are either of them so why bother

@Butch Niven So with that logic a Chinese person can't say 'hello' with correct accent? Lmao. Most in NZ are just too lazy to pronounce Te reo Māori correctly.

I'm a European New Zealander I used to go to a māori school and everyone said Kia ora I used to say kea oura my parents still say it like that and I'm like ITS KIA ORA!!!! 😂

@@chrissiek8706 I been there before when i was teenager... wanted to but parent won't let me... now I don't want to...

Same.

Congrats to liquid courage....and Stephen. Now I know what to do when I see a bungee jump station

That'll be the endorphins kicking in. And yes, I loved that bit too.

But the actual question is: Whose boat is this boat?

I think he wet his pants.

Brain swelling euphoria. Bungee jumping is bad for the brain. Sad but true.

I kept waiting for him to make one last zinger or some throw away line and he actually ended up being sweet and seemed really happy with himself and his trip.

It seems like you had the same trip I did back in December 😂

thank you.. though Singapore has better nz bacon than we do lol..

Our Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is not too shabby either.

I thought that was funny too.. haha..

Bungee make you feel so alive after doing it an I'm sad to say I can't do it anymore since I've had to have two lower back surgery's because of a work accident. We made rides an other fun things to do that brings you back to earth an feel that oneness with our environment is what keeps us grounded.

@@Ricky-nq7lu so true..so true...thanks cuz

Just go into the bush with barely any clothing.

Her chopper is beautiful too. Sleek and black and shiny.

That was a serious helicoptor she was driving. Not the regular little ones you see everyone in. She's probably one of their best private flyers as she has 40 years experience on tough terrain, and on a big advert for New Zealand they must have wanted the best.

I would watch that show :)

I have meet choppy when I went on school camp last year

Your average South Island bloke is going to be a fair bit more manly than him to be honest, so she let him down gently :D

@ Oh hey but I am sure we could find a relative amongst the thousands of children they disowned after world war 2 maybe amongst the ones we adopted..

@ Some US soldiers were deployed to NZ in case Japan pushed out this far. Obviously that attack didn't come, so with a bit of time on their hands ...

I loved her. She was deadpan. "Yeah it might have an effect on the company's business for a couple of weeks" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

@@Hellknight27 That was BS, she thinks like a man, Stephen is more manly than all those insecure bodybuilders thinking they more man because they're more rugged, the same BS 'Strong Man' mentality ..they're little boys in men's bodies and they're idiots

@Joe Cool Beaches and meth. Can't forget the meth.

Yep pretty proud of our little islands

@Kiwi Bird Holy crap you should be. If there was such eye-bleeding gorgeousness in my country, I don't think I'd ever even bother with KZfaq or other social media. I'd just choose a viewpoint and spend my weekend drinking in Earth's beauty. Like, honestly, a month living here in the UK and I promise you you'll be absolutely fixated on your country's amazing aesthetic beauty for the rest of your life. You're _so_ unbelievably lucky I can't tell you. I had two weeks on Hamilton Island and was stunned by the natural landscape... And that's like 1/8th of one view in one part of one island!!! I honestly can't tell you how lucky you are. I wish I was you and am glad I'm aware of the extreme beauty the world possesses while not being party to it at the same time.

@@rageagainstmyhairline5574 Thank you so much for your kind words! Hey I've been to the UK mate and It's beautiful in it's own way! I'm lucky enough to have lived in Oman and Tanzania for some time in my life so coming back here has always been a breath of fresh air despite the obvious beauty of those other countries. Anyone like you with such kind words to say about little old NZ is more than welcome to join us! My English mate got his citizenship last week haha

@@anthonymarshall5279 just because you do meth, doesn't mean the whole country does meth

That’s bravery...well done Stephen. I found abseiling tough enough!

I said 'well done' out loud and then it wasn't him, made me giggle.

This comment made that bit for me, thanks for not ruining it

Come back some time soon love !

glad to hear you enjoyed it

Glad you enjoyed your time here buddy...come back soon!

Next trip can you bring some cheetos? Oh never mind I just got told we can get them here ❤️

Luke Rolleston 🤣🤣🤣 the Japaleno and the Hot Cheetos?

What about the Maori side & Polynesian side of our culture, that drives our identity?

Again!?

Jill Foster - oh yeah. Like that movie Once were warriors!

@@jillfoster900 I visited Rotorua which was an incredible experience in itself. It was there that I got to eat a "Hangi" at a Marae alongside witnessing the Haka which was a very intense & profound thing to witness in its entirety. I also visited a museum in Wellington which allowed me to learn a lot about the Maori culture & history of early New Zealand so that was great. It really allowed me to appreciate the people, the culture and just the diversity of the nation alongside more things. I just wish I had more time though as I would've liked to explore more but I'll definitely be coming back again!

next time visit Paritutu so you can smell the real new zealand

It was was literally an Australian terrorist, and thank you for your kind words :)

If only more muslims were good and humble people who treated people good

Najib - as Jacinda said - you are us.

Bless you pal,

@sathya skywalker No, I wasn't. My skills were required. Any other question?

Yes haha, i wondered if anyone else picked up on that

cheers mate, hope you can come over someday!

I like NZ more than America😜

you don't have to be a leader to lead by example :)

The best of British.. ( well, what Britain WAS) Keep it up NZ.. But please let Wales win at rugby occasionally!

I wonder if anyone told him of Maui or if he came to that vision on his own.

You should view the map of the rest of New Zealand that's underwater it's quite interesting

albarino gold you’ve got it out for NZers with alcoholism man. I’ve seen you comment this a few times. Sorry to hear you haven’t met the literally millions of us that don’t have alcoholism problems 😢

I heard myself say "Kia Ora Stephen." without meaning to!

Awww. It's the intent behind the delivery so you 'felt' in part what Stephen had experienced. We're a very spiritual bunch. Tears are significant in Maori culture. You're an empath.

@@AilsaPehi I agree 100% with your comment, that's an amazingly good observation just from reading one sentence! ☺️

@@Kiwicanuck3000 It's who we are and what we do .... as well you will know. Nga mihi 🤗

Partly because of the non diagetic sound effects

The rugby episode was in Wanaka, but yes, the best island :D

Tbh it's just as well he came to the North Island so he could see that at least part of the country is civilised.

He should have had a cheese roll while there!

Is there any Kiwis left in the North Island

@@davidbell1676 wtf you mean boy

Agreed FTS, I enjoy Stephens shows anyway but this is just a brilliant brilliant series. I can’t give enough thumbs up 👍

👩‍🎤I definitely loved this series and I also loved the Russia series as well but, New Zealand 🇳🇿 is the best 🤗

Loved it too, as a kiwi 🇳🇿💜

hans grettle well I haven’t heard of any shark attacks in the news so I figure he’s alg bro

sharks don't attack divers as they don't look like food a shark would eat. Sharks are pretty smart.

Well, about that...let's just say the lobster catching industry of NZ doesn't like to talk about that incident...not that there was any incident to talk about, mind you...I gotta leave...

There's no way to know he actually jumped in that shark water 😂😂 😂😂

He was arrested for being too tall and handsome

I wanted to make a joke about how different those experiences are and what not. And then I realized how incredibly presumptuous that would have been, so I've decided to instead make this comment mocking my own momentary audaciousness and lack of judgment.

Matthew Christensen - Wow. I hardly ever encounter self-aware youtube commenters! Kudos to you, my friend. Yes, those experiences are VERY different, but Stephen took me back 12.5 years (my first born baby) when I saw him in that dingy. After delivery the fear and pain instantly vanished and was replaced with being proud that I actually did it, (not to mention the instant love for my baby.)

@@state924 I hope Stephen reads your comment : )

Matthew Christensen me dude, 10/10 comment. Thank you for that.

Yep.

except for auckland

it a good country i lived there for 3 years... don't want to do it again.... i am done with countryside and thing... it not worth the place ticket to go there again...

@@campkira Cooooooool story.

@The Handicrapped Stain Auckland is according to Wiki at 1,570,100. This was at June last year though.

Yet mocked the crisis and promoted air travel at the same time.

We also have the ozone hole over us here in New Zealand, so we have high rates of skin cancer to go along with that - so thanks rest of the polluting world :(

@@Hellknight27 as a 5th grade student (I am now 74 yrs) I clearly recall reading in my Weekly Reader an article reporting sheep in New Zealand were found to be suffering from clouded corneas and cataracts from the UV-B's emitting through the atmosphere....I never forgot that........1956'sh

@@rhorizon He didn't mock climate change, he used humour to address it ("see you in Ohio"). He did advertise for an air company, but let's be completely honest, air travel is not going to vanish from our civilization. It's here to stay, for better and worse. We need to find ways to tackle this issue, and highly reduce overall pollution and greenhouse gases emissions, but simply stopping air travel is just wishful thinking.

@@adrienlamy3481 Entitled attitude for something we have less than a decade to significantly address. Sacrificing air travel will seem futile compared to when we're all fighting over resources in the remaining habitable areas of the planet. This is not something we have time for your lax attitude about. We are those people right now who absolutely have to get this right or we're screwing every bit of the future of humanity. Wake tf up.

I was really expecting him to as well, as a random in Europe. Maybe they felt it was inappropriate with the sponsorship? Even so, enh....

It would probably be difficult to do it justice with just the minute or two that would have been available. Hopefully folk will come visit and find out for themselves.

@dangerous at any speed ? Its owned by all who respect it black, brown and white.

@dangerous at any speed yes

@dangerous at any speed nah bro, New Zealand belongs to those who work hard, are kind, and find their standing, e tu man every Maori and Pakeha should know that.
