Chris Hemsworth 'rescues' hitchhiking American musician

SYDNEY - American musician Scott Hildebrand had come to Brisbane from Mexico and needed a lift to get to Byron Bay in New South Wales.

A superhero came to his rescue.

Thor actor Chris Hemsworth, who was in a van with personal trainer Luke Zocchi, saw him thumbing a ride.

He told Hildebrand he was on the way there too.

E! News reported that in a video posted by the Australian actor on Sunday on Instagram, Zocchi could be heard saying they had just arrived in Brisbane.

Hemsworth said in the video: "We're going to Byron, we'll give him a lift."

"Little does he know we're getting a chopper," Zocchi continued.

Hildebrand repeatedly said "no way" when he found out about the lift - a vertical one - he was getting.

"Chip in for the gas, all right," Hemsworth joked.

At the end of the marvellous treat, Hemsworth brought the musician gently down to earth by saying: "All right Scotty, back to the hitch-hiking."
