CHRIS HEMSWORTH PICKS UP HITCHHIKER, FABULOUSNESS ENSUES – (10/23/2018)
Chris Hemsworth and his personal trainer Luke Zocchi were driving around Australia when they ran into an American singer named Scott Hildebrand, who was thumbing his way across country.
Hemsworth shared a video clip of their adventure together, set to Hildebrand’s song, “Ready to Fly.”
“So we’ve just landed in Brissie, we’ve just seen a guy is hitchhiking to Byron Bay. That’s where we’re going,” Zocchi says in the clip, before turning the camera to the Thor star. “We’re going to Byron, we’ll give him a lift,” Hemsworth says.
But the mode of travel isn’t on land. “Little does he know that we’re getting a chopper,” Zocchi says. When Hildebrand gamely offers to pay for gas, Hemsworth explains it’ll cost $4K+.
Hildebrand shared the clip too, writing: “When hitchhiking leads to a helicopter ride with Thor. So grateful for this crazy experience and the opportunity to share my music with so many beautiful people. Thanks guys!”
