Actor Chris Hemsworth, best known for his role as 'Thor' in the Marvel Universe, had revealed in November 2022 that he is at an increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease because of genetic factors. He discovered this while filming "Limitless," a National Geographic series. He also decided to take a break from acting to focus on his family and health. "The idea that I won't be able to remember the life I've experienced or my wife, my kids, this is probably my biggest fear," Hemsworth said, in an episode of the series, after learning about the news. Elsa Pataky, his wife, decided to do something special and heartfelt for the actor to confront his aging worries. Now, a short video of the same from the docuseries is going viral on social media.
