A look at some epic challenges actor Chris Hemsworth undertakes on the new season of NatGeo's Limitless
BACK with a new season of Limitless, global action star Chris Hemsworth takes on some epic challenges to reveal how we can live better. In this season, the National Geographic series titled Limitless: Live Better Now, The Avengers star learns to drum for a brain-boosting, surprise stadium gig with Ed Sheeran, climbs a frozen 600-foot wall in the Swiss Alps to explore the benefits of breaking out of our comfort zones and embraces brutal Special Forces pain training in South Korea — all to discover how we can live longer, better lives. 'I feel fortunate to have been a part of this experience on this show that was constantly pulling me out of my comfort zone and forcing me to explore new spaces,' said Hemsworth. Speaking to The Indian Express, the actor said these challenges not only made him aware of his 'physical capabilities, but also emotional state.' He describes the experience of doing the show — a 'sort of fusion of the spiritual, introspective, existential, the physical-facing adversity.' The series premiered on JioHotstar on August 15. What was the toughest challenge he undertook this season? 'This is a tricky one to answer because probably the most challenging physically was the climbing of the dam wall, which is nearly 600 feet. But drumming in front of 70,000 people with Ed Sheeran, not being a musician myself, was terrifying. The number of hours that were required to put in (for practice) was one thing but in my mind I kept grappling with the endless, vivid ways that this could fail. I thought, what if I'm out of time, the guitar, the keyboard, the bass, Ed Sheeran singing, all of it falls out of sync. The drums are the key that keeps everyone else in balance and check.' Hemsworth had joined Sheeran in Bucharest, Romania, last year — the clip is shown in this season of Limitless. Also Read | Chris Hemsworth talks about legacy of Thor and his return in Marvel's Avengers Doomsday. Watch Though Hemsworth had 'fearful conversations around it', once the show 'kicked and the song launched', he was in the space. The actor, known globally for playing Thor, says, 'It was almost a spiritual out-of-body experience. It was like your instincts began to take over and you were just in this perfect state of flow with everybody. There was a real unity with 70,000 people (in the audience) singing along. It was like universal prayer. I've never felt anything like it.' The 42-year-old Australian actor, known for films such as Ghostbusters (2016), The Huntsman: Winter's War (2016) and Extraction (2020), reflects on pushing himself, physically and emotionally, for the show. 'I really enjoy the lesson that comes from it. It's the difficult things we face that tend to be most provocative or profound. This forces us to ask bigger questions and seek larger answers. I had hesitations at first because all of us are wooed by comfort, sitting on the couch and staying at home. However, I knew there was something else to dig into this space of health, wellness and longevity.' After all the hardship, when Hemsworth stood on the top of that alpine dam, what he experienced was 'pure exhaustion' as well as 'a sort of elation and a wonderful sense of achievement'. 'There were moments of absolute quiet, there was nothing left. Then, out of nowhere, something sort of propelled me forward and I kept climbing and tried to sort of reconcile all of those different inner voices of motivation. I had to pull from a whole lot of different things. We have a toolbox, we're sort of gathering necessary tools to navigate our way through any sort of challenges,' says Hemsworth.

Treating the InstaUsers with some adorable photos of the mother and son duo, Neeti revealed that her son reminds her every day that motherhood is measured through quiet moments with your kid. "Every day with Aryaveer reminds me that motherhood is not measured in milestones, but in the quiet moments — the warm snuggles, the bed time stories, eating meals together, traveling and the sparkle in his eyes when he learns something new, the way his little voice calls 'Mama' like it's the safest word in the world," she wrote. Neeti added that even at the tender age of four, her son teaches her joy, patience, and the beauty of living fully in the now. "This journey is wholesome and our unique story we write together, one precious day at a time," she penned. The proud mother was also elated about her son facing the camera for the first time.
