Chris Hemsworth showed off his bravery and his Australianness in a video. Shared on his Instagram, the clip shows Hemsworth bravely facing a huge spider, approaching it to record the best possible footage. His proximity causes the spider to jump, leaving him startled, prompting funny reactions from his followers.
The video shows Hemsworth surrounded by plants and nature. He's wearing a beanie and a grey shirt, and looks carefully at the camera, moving it slowly to reveal a spider's web and a huge spider laying there. He places the camera in front of the spider, with him standing close to it in the background, helping viewers get some perspective on the bug's size. "Look at that," he says. As he manipulates the camera, the spider jumps, prompting him to startle and laugh. "Jesus," he says.
"Didn't even scare me," he wrote in the caption.
His followers dropped many comments that ranged from playful to scared. "Thor VS Spider-Man lets begin the fight," wrote a fan. "Yeah….. that’s a NOPE for me," wrote actress Octavia Spencer.
"Even spiders find Hemsworth startlingly, ridiculously, really, really good looking," wrote a second fan.
