The hunky 35-year-old actor worked himself up into an impressively wild state to perform the haka, an ancestral war cry from the Maori people of New Zealand.

The highly physical dance, accompanied by a warning chant, is best known for being performed before rugby matches by the New Zealand All Blacks team.

Despite the fact Momoa isn’t a New Zealander, hailing instead from Hawaii, the buff actor nailed his performance! With his trademark flowing hair and goatee beard he disappeared into the zone, beating out a fearsome dance and slamming his fists onto his forearms and thighs, before gasping to catch his breath.
