  • Popping a manu: New Zealand’s unique water jumping obsession | New Zealand


    Over summer, a strange phenomenon plays out along New Zealand’s waterholes. Bridges, wharfs, cliffs and swimming pools throng with people readying to leap. Jumpers launch into the air, twist themselves into a v-shape – bums down, limbs akimbo – until they hit the surface, forcing water upwards in an almighty splash.

    The bigger the splash and the more inventive the jump, the louder the cheers.

    These are the “manu” jumpers – people who get a thrill and sometimes compete – in the sport of manu, a unique New Zealand diving technique similar to a bomb, developed by Māori and Pasifika communities, and which has now become a national pastime.

    Nikita Hauraki, of Papamoa, competes at the Z Manu Championship qualifier round held at Tauranga.

    “It’s like an unspoken cultural rule in New Zealand – whenever you’re around water and there is something to jump off, you pop a manu,” says Nikita Hauraki, 26, who has been popping manus since she was a child.

    “Everyone knows what a manu is, what it entails, how much hype is around it, even though not everyone has tried it out,” she says.

    Manu jumper Pone Kahotea, 34, has been doing the sport in Tauranga, on the North Island’s east coast, since he was a kid.

    “No matter where there are people swimming, there are people doing manus,” he says. Now, his 12-year-old, Bayley, is perfecting his technique.

    Bayley Kahotea, 11, (left) learns the art of the manu from his dad, Pone, at Salisbury Wharf, Mount Maunganui.

    “Kids will go hard all day,” Kahotea says. “These young kids have made up their own styles and redefined it – they’re crazy and much better than we were.”

    The aim of a manu is to create the highest splash and while the v-shape is the most common technique, other styles including the coffin (feet first, straight body), the gorilla (head and shoulders first), and the staple (hands and feet first) regularly feature.

    “If someone’s done a really good manu, where the splash is almost in a shape of a tree trunk, and it goes straight up … and obviously high, it is considered a really good [one],” says Elisha Rolleston, 32, whose ability has earned him the title “Manu King” in his home region of Tauranga.

    Hayden Tuhakaraina, 13, of Te Puna, practises his manu technique at Salisbury Wharf, Mount Maunganui.

    “Nowadays, we’re starting to see different styles of the manu … like the tailwhip – you jump out and swing your legs to the side, it looks like a breakdancing move in the air.”

    Salisbury Wharf on the Tauranga Harbour side of Mount Maunganui is a popular gathering place for manu sessions.

    No one is entirely sure where, or how, the manu evolved. Some believe it emerged in the 1990s at the outdoor Moana-Nui-a-Kiwa pools in the South Auckland suburb Māngere, while other regions claim it evolved at their local bridges decades earlier. The name manu – meaning bird in the Māori language – also has a murky history. Some think it references the act of flying into the water, others believe it is a shortened version of Māngere.

    What is certain, is the art of the manu emerged within Māori and Pasifika communities – something Rolleston believes is linked to these communities’ strong connection with water. “There’s a real sense of community – people swimming, having a good time,” he says.

    William Anaru, 35, of Rotorua, stops by for a manu and a cool off at Hamurana Springs in Rotorua.

    Visiting local waterholes was also a cheaper option for those on lower incomes, he says. During his years living in Tauranga and the neighbouring inland region Waikato, Rolleston said European New Zealanders tended to avoid local rivers and waterholes, in favour for the beach.

    “But at wharfs and bridges, Māori are the majority – it was probably more feasible option to take [families] there for a swim all day,” Rolleston says.

    Children practise their manu technique at a pontoon.

    The pastime – which has always had a competitive edge – now has a formal annual championship: the Manu World Champs. Competitors attend heats around the country over summer, in the hopes of diving at the grand final held on Auckland’s waterfront in March.

    The professional competition may be boosting the profile of manu jumping, Rolleston says, but it will always remain a curious, fun and free sport.

    “Doing the manu is something within our DNA as New Zealanders – it’s certainly unique to us and we are proud of it.”



    New Zealand is known for its stunning landscapes, adventurous activities, and unique cultural experiences. One of the most exhilarating and adrenalin-pumping activities that has gained popularity in recent years is “popping a manu.”

    So, what exactly is popping a manu? In simple terms, it involves jumping off a high cliff or rock into the water below, with the goal of executing a perfect “manu” – a traditional Māori dive where the diver holds their arms outstretched like wings.

    While cliff jumping is not a new concept, what sets popping a manu apart is the focus on the dive itself. Participants aim to perform a graceful and precise dive, similar to a professional diver, rather than simply plunging into the water. It requires skill, precision, and nerves of steel to execute a flawless manu.

    New Zealand’s rugged coastline and crystal-clear waters provide the perfect backdrop for this thrilling activity. Popular spots for popping a manu include Queenstown’s iconic Shotover Canyon, the stunning cliffs of Lake Taupo, and the picturesque bays of the Bay of Islands.

    While popping a manu can be a heart-pounding experience, it is important to always prioritize safety. It is recommended to check the depth of the water, assess the conditions, and only attempt a manu if you are a confident swimmer and have experience in cliff jumping.

    So, if you’re looking for a unique and adventurous activity to add to your New Zealand itinerary, why not give popping a manu a try? It’s sure to be a memorable and thrilling experience that you won’t soon forget.

  • SNL Cold Open Takes On MSNBC’s Obsession with Trump Craziness


    Posted in: NBC, Peacock, TV | Tagged: ,


    Saturday Night Live returned tonight with an SNL Cold Open taking on Donald Trump’s nonsense and MSNBC’s obsession with covering all of it.


    NBC’s Saturday Night Live returned this weekend with host David Chappelle and musical guest GloRilla, and they came back from the break not afraid to take on both incoming POTUS Donald Trump as well as MSNBC (and other alleged news networks). For tonight’s SNL Cold Open, we got to MSNBC – with Rachel Maddow (Sarah Sherman) anchoring a panel that included Chris Hayes (Andrew Dismukes), Joy Reid (Ego Nwodim), Stephanie Ruhle (Chloe Fineman), and Ari Melber (Marcello Hernandez) – with Claire McCaskill (Heidi Gardner) as their special correspondent.

    The focus of the opener was how MSNBC was going to do a better job of not jumping on everything crazy thing that Trump (James Austin Johnson) said – but they just couldn’t help themselves (with the writers offering up some great “Trumpisms” that would’ve been funnier if they didn’t sound too eerily true). Along the way, some nice knife twists were had – from Melber’s use of rap lyrics in his reporting to Ruhle’s flirty nature to even Maddow confusing Hayes for being “Rachel Maddow.” In addition, Trump got a chance to introduce his new cabinet appointment – George Santos (Bowen Yang), who will be in charge of fact-checking and serve as an “ambassador to Sephora” (and who is apparently dating Luigi Mangione).

    Saturday Night Live never fails to poke fun at the latest news headlines, and this week’s cold open was no exception. The sketch took on MSNBC’s obsession with all things Trump, portraying the network’s hosts and pundits as obsessed with the former president’s every move.

    From analyzing his tweets to dissecting his latest golf outing, the sketch hilariously captured the over-the-top coverage that has become synonymous with cable news channels. Kate McKinnon stole the show as an overly enthusiastic anchor, while the rest of the cast hammed it up as various talking heads and political commentators.

    While the real MSNBC may not be quite as absurd as SNL’s portrayal, the sketch certainly hit on some truths about the media’s fascination with all things Trump. Love him or hate him, it’s clear that the former president still generates plenty of buzz – and plenty of material for late-night comedy shows.

    Overall, the SNL cold open was a sharp and funny take on the craziness of cable news, and a reminder that sometimes it’s good to take a step back and laugh at the absurdity of it all.

  • ‘SNL’ skewers MSNBC’s Trump obsession in fiery takedown of host Rachel Maddow


    This weekend’s “Saturday Night Live” roasted MSNBC in a skit ridiculing the left-wing cable news network about everything from its hysteria-prone coverage of President-elect Trump to its anchors’ personalities and appearances.

    The segment featured Sarah Sherman as Rachel Maddow — complete with the host’s signature close-cropped hairstyle and thick-rimmed glasses — who introduced herself warning that dads watching at home “better hide their older, bookish-looking lesbian daughters.”

    Sherman then introduced the panel, who she described as “basically like ‘The Avengers’ for your aunt” and which included cast members mimicking network regulars including Ari Melber, Joy Reid, Stephanie Ruhle and Chris Hayes.

    The “SNL” skit parodying MSNBC featured imitations of Joy Reid, Rachel Maddow and Stephanie Ruhle. NBC / SNL

    The skit’s Joy Reid — portrayed by Ego Nwodim — said the network was turning over a new leaf when it comes to covering Trump.

    “This time around, we’re not gonna get sucked in by every new shiny, crazy statement from Trump. We need to focus on what he does, not what he says.”

    At that moment, Sherman’s Maddow cuts in to announce some breaking news that Trump wants to “trade Connecticut for Italy.”

    The segment bounced between anchors — lampooning their peccadilloes, including Melber’s penchant for hip-hop and portraying Ruhle as flighty and flirtatious.

    It interrupted the panelists with mock-breaking news a few more times throughout, including a made-up story that the incoming 47th president had told a group of LA wildfire victims that “Arnold Palmer had some of the longest balls in American history.”

    The most stinging barb of the skit came at the expense of Hayes and Maddow.

    The skit got its biggest reaction from a bit in which it implied that Rachel Maddow and Chris Hayes looked so similar that the camera operator couldn’t tell them apart. NBC / SNL

    Nwodim’s Reid at one point throws a question to Maddow, but the camera fixes on Hayes — who is being played by Andrew Dismukes.

    The audience awkwardly guffaws in realization as Dismukes stammers, “oh, I’m not Rachel, I’m Chris Hayes,” a riff on a longstanding internet meme that the hosts share a resemblance.

    Trump is a frequent source of material for the long-running NBC series, despite hosting the show twice, in 2004 and again in 2015.

    During the 2024 presidential election, Vice President Kamala Harris made a surprise appearance on the program, sparking backlash and prompting NBC to file an Equal Time notice with the Federal Communications Commission a day after the episode aired.

    The network ran a Trump campaign ad during the broadcast of NASCAR’s Xfinity 500 at Martinsville Speedway and the NFL’s coverage of the Minnesota Vikings-Indianapolis Colts game on Sunday night.



    “SNL” Roasts MSNBC’s Trump Obsession in Scathing Takedown of Rachel Maddow

    In a recent episode of “Saturday Night Live,” the sketch comedy show took aim at MSNBC and host Rachel Maddow for their relentless coverage of all things Trump. The segment, titled “MSNBC’s Trump Obsession,” featured Kate McKinnon as Maddow and showcased the host’s over-the-top reactions to every tweet, scandal, and controversy involving the former president.

    From Maddow’s dramatic monologues to her frantic attempts to connect the dots between Trump and various conspiracy theories, the parody highlighted the absurdity of the network’s fixation on the ex-president. McKinnon’s portrayal of Maddow as a hyper-caffeinated, conspiracy-obsessed news anchor was spot-on and had audiences in stitches.

    The sketch didn’t hold back in its criticism of MSNBC’s coverage, pointing out the network’s ratings-driven approach to journalism and its seeming inability to move on from the Trump era. It was a fiery takedown that didn’t pull any punches, and it left viewers wondering just how accurate the portrayal really was.

    Overall, “SNL’s” skewering of MSNBC and Rachel Maddow was a hilarious and timely reminder of the dangers of media obsession and sensationalism. It was a reminder that sometimes, it’s important to take a step back and remember that there are other things happening in the world besides Donald Trump.

  • Wheel of Fortune contestant stuns Ryan Seacrest with his intense obsession: ‘More important than family’


    Wheel of Fortune presenter Ryan Seacrest was left visibly shocked after a player shared his ‘unhealthy obsession.’

    Nick Isidori, from Emerson, New Jersey , joined the beloved gameshow earlier this week, where he admitted that he was a big New York sports fan.

    ‘Some probably would say it’s an unhealthy obsession,’ he declared as he stepped up to the wheel.

    A befuddled Ryan, 50, replied: ‘Who would be those people who say that? Do they know you well?’

    ‘Everybody,’ Nick said plainly. ‘So, I actually have a list of priorities in life and in order, I prioritize the New York Football Giants, my family, and then breathing right after.’

    Stunned by his player’s admission, Ryan quipped: ‘You should look up the definition of priority.’

    Wheel of Fortune host Ryan Seacrest was visibly shocked by Nick’s confession

    ‘I’ve been told that one too, Ryan,’ Nick replied.

    Viewers were divided by Nick’s obsession with the sport’s team, with one commenting on X, formerly known as Twitter, that he ‘should really get his priorities straight.’

    Others, however, were impressed with his loyalty.

    ‘Hell yeah!’ one exclaimed, while another proclaimed, ‘Words to live by.’

    A third added: ‘This is awesome.’

    Nick’s love for the Giants has been well documented.

    Speaking to NJ.com in 2020, he revealed that he cares about the team ‘more than anything.’

    ‘I’ll tell you right now: I’m a cancer survivor,’ he told the publication.

    ‘The [feeling I got on the] last day of my chemo is not even remotely close to that first Super Bowl. I care about this team more than anything.’

    He even has a tribute tattoo of his favorite team on the nape of his neck, which reads ‘Only a Giant.’

    ‘I’ve got a big family, a lot of friends, and they all know that I care about this team more than I care about anything,’ Nick added.

    Earlier this week, it was announced that Wheel of Fortune has joined a number of television shows that have halted production due to the unprecedented wildfires in the Los Angeles area.

    The game show sent out a memo to audience members scheduled to attend tapings this week.



    Ryan Seacrest was left speechless on a recent episode of Wheel of Fortune when a contestant revealed his intense obsession with the game show. The contestant, who identified himself only as John, shocked both the audience and Seacrest when he declared that Wheel of Fortune was “more important than family.”

    As the wheel spun and the puzzle board revealed itself, John’s laser focus and determination were palpable. He quickly solved puzzle after puzzle, amassing an impressive lead over his competitors. But it was his unwavering dedication to the game that truly set him apart.

    When Seacrest asked John about his love for Wheel of Fortune, John simply replied, “This game is my life. I eat, sleep, and breathe Wheel of Fortune. It’s more than just a game to me – it’s a way of life.”

    As the episode progressed, John’s passion for the game only seemed to grow stronger. He confidently solved each puzzle with lightning speed, leaving his opponents in the dust. And when he finally emerged as the winner, his victory speech left everyone in the studio in awe.

    “I want to thank Wheel of Fortune for giving me a reason to get out of bed every morning,” John said, his eyes shining with emotion. “This show has brought me so much joy and excitement – it truly is more important to me than anything else in the world.”

    As Seacrest congratulated John on his win, he couldn’t help but marvel at the contestant’s intense obsession with the game. And as John walked off the stage, his head held high and a triumphant smile on his face, it was clear that Wheel of Fortune would always hold a special place in his heart.

    Every Breath You Take: A True Story of Obsession, Revenge, and Murder

    In the quiet town of Willow Creek, a seemingly harmless love affair turned deadly in a twisted tale of obsession, revenge, and murder.

    It all started with a chance encounter at a local coffee shop. Sarah, a young and ambitious journalist, caught the eye of Mark, a charming and charismatic businessman. What began as a flirtatious exchange soon escalated into a passionate romance, with Sarah falling head over heels for Mark’s charm and charisma.

    But as the relationship deepened, Sarah began to notice some troubling signs. Mark’s possessiveness and jealousy grew more pronounced, and his once-loving gestures turned into controlling behavior. Despite her friends’ warnings, Sarah was blinded by love and refused to see the danger lurking beneath the surface.

    As Mark’s obsession with Sarah grew, so did his rage when she tried to break things off. In a fit of jealousy, he plotted a twisted revenge that would change both of their lives forever. The once-loving relationship turned deadly, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake.

    Every breath Sarah took was now haunted by the fear of her stalker, lurking in the shadows and watching her every move. The police were called, but they were powerless to stop the madness unfolding before their eyes.
