Chris Hemsworth Gets Nervous While Eating Spicy Wings | Hot Ones

stop being sunburnt and sunburn again

and then the skin peels off and you get

sunburn

again hey what's going on everybody for

first week Feast I'm Sean Evans and

you're watching hot ones it's the show

with hot questions and even hotter wings

and today we're joined by Chris

Hemsworth he's an actor and lionlike

figure in the action genre from the Thor

and Avengers films to rush the

extraction franchise and many more

coming May 24th you can catch him the

much anticipated George directed furiosa

Mad Max Saga Chris Hemsworth welcome to

the show thank you very much I've seen

you challenge yourself in Extreme Ways

you know from swimming in the Arctic to

climbing a 100ft rope that's suspended

from a helicopter how adventurous though

are you as an eater I like my food I

like my spice but this is this is about

as uh Extreme as I think I've

experienced so well you ready to get

started I'm excited this should be

Limitless season 2

[Music]

am I right this one that's the one

[Music]

yeah that's pretty simple it's got a

little little peppery mhm yeah

approachable nothing too crazy yeah

so in furiosa Mad Max Saga you play the

role of dementus a powerful warlord who

you've described as a pretty horrible

person maybe this is a silly question

but is an actor known for being a Norse

god who always saves the day did you

find any sort of perverse joy in being

the bad guy this time around yeah a lot

it's a certain amount of restrictions

expectations when playing the hero

especially a superhero that you have to

abide by and stay within um and so to to

to play the villain is fun it's it's

just you kind of the shackles are off

and you're allowed to be a little more

unpredictable you allowed to you know

there's not as many rules to follow so

creatively it was it was it was a lot

more fun yeah did you have a most

memorable Driving Experience on set like

what is it like to hop in these George

Miller minations and just Cruise the

Australian desert in a chariot bik yeah

it's uh like the real life version of

you know when you were a kid playing in

the backyard smashing trucks and cars

together you know the big monster truck

vehicle that I was in was insane and

loud and obnoxious and

awesome it was uh epic to say the least

yeah

[Music]

yeah seeing

double that's Char's play there we go I

remember you said that I'll remember you

said that yeah this is a it's going to

bite me in the ass literally I'll enjoy

it twice when you shoot something like

the 12 minute long one shot fight

sequence and extraction yeah how much of

that is rehearsed down to the smallest

movement and then how much of it happens

in the moment now with that stuff it's

like the necessity

required in order for everyone to stay

alive it has to be rehearsed down to the

the last beat you know um and you have

all your stunt performers and so on go

through all

the right versions the wrong versions

the sort of experimentation period they

bust themselves to pieces and then I

turn up and do my own stunts but they've

you know been narrowed into a pretty

safe Zone safer you know than it could

be um there still a bit of a leap of

faith but um a huge amount of prep

required um and then it's sort of a

orchestrated Controlled

[Music]

Chaos a little

bit nothing we can't handle we're on top

of it ask me some questions all right I

got you

so your naio series Limitless it kind of

reminds me of hot ones and that there's

this obvious hook but the Ambitions of

the show go so much deeper is there a

Stress Management tool that maybe you

learn that could possibly be useful for

us as we work our way through the wings

of death here I learned about box

breathing you know 4 seconds in 4

seconds hold 4 seconds out 4 seconds

hold but I'm not sure when you're

choking on a chilly if that comes into

play well I guess we could just put it

into practice and see what happens yeah

getting big over here

are you ready to move on here to Sauce

number four I am I am Lo Calientes

barbacoa all

right a little something mhm little

something little

[Music]

something yeah should be kind of sweet

oh there it is yeah little Smokey yeah

it's a creeper that one mhm yeah okay

M yeah but still locked in focus and

maybe I'm going to start box breathing

[Music]

[Laughter]

yeah that in itself is a challenge is

someone who clearly enjoys an adventure

what are examples of things that you

have to contractually agree not to do

when you're heading a billion- dollar

movie franchise oh well yeah I mean it's

there's always a do sign the waiver and

you don't do this don't do that you

still kind of do secretly but I've had a

few moments I've had a few moments where

I've been doing those things and going W

this could cost me or the studio or

someone a lot of money if I was to get

injured right now and so when I was a

shooting extraction I was down in the

south of France surfing some pretty big

waves and um yeah a couple of times with

kind of underwater you know being rolled

on by sort of big 15t Surf and thinking

uh maybe I shouldn't be here right now

this is this is good to hold the

production uh for for the entirety of it

because I'll be dead well thankfully you

can still eat hot wings are you ready to

move on here to the halfway mark let's

do this yeah so here we have now's

Revenge

okay I feel like we're going to stop

pouring this on and dipping in I'm

familiar I'll I'll do it if you're yeah

we're halfway there and it feels like B

start popping bottles I love popping

bottles man have you used that

before have anyone ever pop bottles

before in the show we are oh let get

little we are in

Vegas

no God

yeah yeah still not bad though right

it's a good one I love that meow's

Revenge meow's Revenge Jesus

yeah all right so a lot of actors who

have been on this show have explained to

me the value of doing soap operas early

on in their career including your

Countryman Margot Robbie how if at all

did putting together almost 200 episodes

of Home and Away prepare you for what

was to come in Hollywood for me the the

technicality was the greatest thing how

to hit your mark how to learn lines on

the fight how to just be comfortable in

the setting with cameras and lights and

things pointing in your direction you

know um and but then you kind of there's

not some I wouldn't say bad habits but

there's a certain sort of default

position you get into in a sort of

comfort zone which I had to kind of get

out of my system when I first started

doing

[Music]

film let's just pop bottles all right

let's pop bottles how heavy you going to

go I'm going to kind of follow your lead

all right I'm just doing a few oh this

is a dangerous dangerous game we're

playing ah why do we do this oh there we

go it's kind of your idea do you do the

the

version do you ever rub it in your eye

by accident oh

my any hot sauce mistake you can make

this is a step up by the way oh that's a

real jump that's not like a gentle

introduction we went

from pepper to chili now

but can't reach for the milk yet all

right all right yeah we're in a standoff

and I'll hold my ground as long as you

hold your ground in this together yeah

go for it go for

it when you're

watching can we have a glass of milk

let's do it it's too soon don't too all

right I'm off I'm off I'm off go I'm

always curious how people who act in

films actually consume them like how

would you describe yourself as a movie

goer uh I think a lot more growing up

you you know um I to love the movie

going experience but uh I don't know

once you're kind of seene behind the

curtain you can't help but sit there and

kind of hey I know they did this I know

that person drinks with that person and

you know when I watched Fury Road I

remember coming out of that film I was

completely immersed in the experience

for the first time in years I forgot

that I I I knew what was going on I

wasn't oh how did they do that shot how

did they do this I was absolutely 100%

absorbed in the experience and so

um I forgotten the question cuz it's

kind my tongue I know yeah is that the

answer it works for me you know what I

mean like I'm I'm marinating in this

whole experience just like you you know

I'm no superer marinating in the old uh

Ona cabanero Sher it's a challenge over

here let's have another one yeah you

want to you want to pop the bottle on it

yeah let's pop the bottle all right hell

yeah

[Music]

we're pushing the envelope aren't we do

we just bite it first or we no we didn't

no we

didn't all

right okay ready yep

okay kind of nice up front yeah almost

kind of ketchupy yeah but sometimes hot

sauce is tricky you know yeah this one I

think is a trickster L you and

then you have that sense of

security it's got like a peppery kick

doesn't it

yeah it does oh man yeah really like a

really a compliment to the last one you

know just a different kind of pepper

viol beautiful compliment yeah they're

all getting along in there aren't they

they really are complimenting each other

it's like a fish fight uhhuh like a war

zone do you have a go-to deflection when

you're at a convention and a fan

approaches you and asks you like a

minute super deep cut comic book

question that you have absolutely no

idea how to

answer

um no I've been pretty open about kind

of having read some Comics but not

others I do this thing sometimes when

I'm not real good with names everyone's

going to know now if there this but

someone come up and go Chris good to see

you and I let my wife with me I go

hey and she'll go hi I'm Elsa this is

John John this is sorry man something

like I could I could do that yeah I was

going to say I wasn't sure if you were

like telling the story and uh yeah

explaining or if you just actually

reacting to this be like hey good to see

you sorry and then you wipe for someone

else to step in smart I might steal that

from you you're good yeah it's not too

bad I mean it's it's not fun and Fades

right yeah now this next one is no fun

this is the bomb Beyond

Insanity yeah do we really want to pour

it on this pup bottles okay again

yeah I'm going to just pour in the Alisa

sace how's that sound oh dangerous is

you a mouth bouldering yeah and my lips

are on fire yeah should we have some

milk if you're down if you don't want to

I don't want to if you don't yeah good

if I'm good if you're good up to you I'm

not touching the milk into you touch it

yeah yeah well if you're good I'm good

you know no need for to reach for the

milk yeah it just doesn't go away either

does it no like speaking of compound

injuries you know what I mean like

that's the show you have a cumulative

effect here can't wait for the rest of

my press and interviews how going to do

for the

[Laughter]

day might be done oh my gosh yeah this

might be it this might take us out this

one really yeah you know I've been

around the block at do we always get to

it we're so braz before what I do

remember early on when you're like I'm

bored you know what I mean I'm not bored

no

more it always comes back this show oh

my God so you called surfing one of the

few things that holds my attention

completely and in its entirety no I'm

really nervous if I were to ask you

what's the greatest wave you've ever

surfed is there a memory that

crystallizes in your

brain well uh

man okay

okay

mhm um uh

clab

[Music]

right I went with um Kelly slider once

to clab Rak Fiji and uh ice cream

here here we go we have this magic trick

this is our medic over

helpful it takes me down they got their

huge set he go don't worry that's the

last big set dropping off cool I paddle

out

and straight away the 12T set comes

through watch everyone out comes up he

looks at me goes I swear it's dropping

off that's the last big set and

uh 10 minutes later another one even

bigger my board's like tombstoning and

I'm like on the roef going trying to

climb my leg rope to get the top I come

up and he's like okay not get smaller go

in and winning that was probably the

biggest scariest Sur of

nowhere near as terrifying as the next

thing we're about to

do

okay I can't wait to enjoy that tomorrow

morning it's just karma for all the

Cockiness I had at the start wasn't it

it's a humbling show you know it really

is at it's heart I wanted to stop there

have somewhere to go though it's a been

a journey it's a journey here we

go my budd's like why are we doing that

oh mine too mine too what an experience

yeah actually just is bad it's not as

bad not fun but not as bad not as bad St

beinging Sunburn and sunburn again and

AFL Grand Final their first in over 60

years yeah it was yeah was was there

1954 and that's the last time that won I

epic and every week up in in the finals

leading up everyone was like wow you

question before we roll credits it

an action star you know growing up

obsessed with Schwarzenegger movies

practicing your Rambo isms and John

Claude vanam Flying Kicks I'm C from

your unique vantage point is someone who

grew up a fan of the genre and is now a

Cornerstone of the genre what in your

opinion is the greatest action movie

performance of all

time I'm having trouble thinking the

greatest action movie performance of all

time one of my favorite films kickboxer

Blood Sport action

now you know how you shoot action these

days is I don't more sophisticated but

there's been there's growth you know and

and um and you watch them now and

they're kind of very you know

everything's a lot of slowmo and big

Hing kicks and so on um but Blood Sport

kickboxer probably two of my favorite

yeah set it in stone and look at you
