The 30-year-old often indulges in surfing and insists he has feared for his life on a number of occasions. <img alt="Chris Hemsworth" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/sep/Chris-Hemsworth_1.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 602px;" /> Chris Hemsworth. Pic/Santa Banta &quot;I&#39;ve surfed a couple of times where I&#39;ve been pinned under a reef and I&#39;m right at the end of my breath, and there&#39;s nothing else you want to see more than the surface,&quot; Hemsworth said in a statement. Talking about his experience on the Formula one track, he said: &quot;It&#39;s the near misses that you don&#39;t see when you&#39;re walking down the street, then later you think, &#39;S**t, that bus was two inches away from hitting me.&quot; &quot;There were moments when driving on the track where you think, &#39;I better pull back here&#39;, because you think of how things could end up,&quot; he added. Directed by Ron Howard, &quot;Rush&quot; is a biopic based on the 1976 Formula One season and the rivalry between Hunt and Niki Lauda. Slated to release Friday, the movie also features actors Daniel Bruhl and Olivia Wilde.u00a0
