In one of the episodes which premiered on National Geographic on 16 November, Chris Hemsworth took some genetic tests to learn about his DNA.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the\u00a0Extraction\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>star discovered that he had two copies of the APOE4 gene, which puts him at a high risk of Alzheimer’s disease or dementia. According to the doctors, the Hollywood actor has an 8 out of 10 chance of falling ill because of his family’s medical history.<\/p>\n

Chris Hemsworth then revealed that his grandfather had dementia.<\/p>\n

Talking about death and his biggest fears, he said,<\/p>\n

Our memories are supposed to last forever. They shape us, and make us who we are, the idea that I won’t be able to remember a lot of experience or my wife, or my kids is probably my biggest fear.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

He added,<\/p>\n

It really triggered something in me to want to take some time off. Now when I finish this tour this week, I\u2019m going home and I\u2019m going to have a good chunk of time off and just simplify. Be with the kids, be with my wife.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\t\t
