Chris Hemsworth Recalls Gruesome Mistake He Almost Made While Swimming With Sharks
HuffPost
The "Furiosa" star was about to make one of the sharks very furious, he said on "The Late Show."
Chris Hemsworth said his swim with sharks almost took a dangerous turn before the camera crew intervened. (Watch the video below.)
Hemsworth was proudly describing some family motorcycle and fishing adventures on “The Late Show” Thursday when host Stephen Colbert asked him what was the most dangerous thing he’d ever done for an adrenaline rush.
Hemsworth brought up his shark expedition for a documentary in 2021. It was going swimmingly ― no pun intended ― until he tried to play aquatic veterinarian.
The “Thor” star remembered doing as he was told at first, staying on the ocean floor when dozens of grey nurse sharks emerged from the darkness. They bumped him, he said, so he was close enough to notice that one of the sharks had a spear embedded in its side.
“Should I grab it? Should I just pull it out like it’s a little toothpick?” he recalled asking.
