LAX Employee Confirms What We Suspected About Chris Hemsworth's Off-Set Behavior

Despite being a brooding superhero in Marvel films, Chris Hemsworth has a reputation for being a total sweetheart behind the scenes. Although his hunky physique commands attention in his famous role of Thor, Hemsworth is a devoted husband and father of three who prefers to keep a low profile.

An interview with GQ Australia in 2018 revealed how humble the "Avengers" actor really is, when he opened up about often being uncomfortable about his fortune. "I feel gross about it," Hemsworth told the mag. He recalled a time growing up in Australia when he saved up for a whole year to buy a surfboard. "It taught me so many lessons about appreciation and working hard for something," he continued. "When I think about my kids, I don't want them to miss that joy." Hemsworth shared that he and his wife Elsa Pataky try to lead their children away from a privileged life.

Hemsworth's wealth has led him to do some pretty generous things for others in his years as a star, including picking up a hitchhiker in a chopper. The hitchhiker, a musician named Scott Hildebrand, spoke to E! News about the favor. "The experience was so cool and unexpected," he dished. "They're so nice and I couldn't believe it was happening." Hemsworth's down-to-earth nature has once again been brought to the spotlight since a viral TikTok from an LAX employee confirmed what we all suspected about Hemsworth when he's not in front of the camera.

According to a former LAX employee, Marvel star Chris Hemsworth "was really polite to everybody" when he was traveling. Cindy, who was a customer service representative for airlines, made a TikTok in which she rated celebrities she encounters based on their demeanor during her interactions with them, per the Daily Mail. While she described other stars like Kendall Jenner and Nicki Minaj being snobby at the airport, the opposite was true of Thor. "He was even on a first-name basis with some of the staff," Cindy revealed in her video, adding, unsurprisingly, that Hemsworth was "literally so handsome in person."

While the actor's manners appear to be appreciated in Los Angeles, Hemsworth discussed a 30 hour flight his family took on "The Ellen Degeneres Show" that didn't go so well in 2015. "It was kind of like the trip from hell," he said, adding that his children "were all sick and literally took it in turns to scream" on their journey from Australia to London. He continued, "The whole cabin ... wanted to kick us off."

The creator behind the viral TikTok about Chris Hemsworth's sweet airport behavior isn't the first regular netizen to gush about the movie star's kind ways. One Redditor also had a run-in with Hemsworth at the Los Angeles airport and left with an amazing memory. "When I was flying out of LAX a couple years ago, he was in front of me and nobody noticed," they wrote. "We took a picture together when I saw him again in one of the airport bookstores. He was really nice!"

Donna Biroczky, author of the "Dangerous Cupcake Lifestyle" family blog, detailed her unforgettable experience with Hemsworth when the "Thor" actor did a press junket for his military drama film "12 Strong" in 2018. Hemsworth led a roundtable chat with female writers from Army families and Biroczky called the opportunity a "dream come true" to spend time with the easy-going star. "​​Chris Hemsworth is as amazing as I knew he would be," Biroczky wrote. "Kind, thoughtful, funny, genuine, his respect for the military came through loud and clear." The blogger added that he was as charismatic as she expected and "there was a collective pause" among the writers when he smiled because, well, it's Chris Hemsworth!

It's not uncommon for the fame of the film industry to go to actor's heads. Chris Hemsworth once voiced his concern about getting lost in the Hollywood mix to Vanity Fair. "You just kind of lose touch with reality a bit here," he said of the biz. "You drive down the street and you're constantly reminded of everything you're either involved in or not involved in. It's exhausting."

While some stars fall victim to becoming jerks in the spotlight, that couldn't be further from the truth about Hemsworth, according to his co-stars. The cast of Hemsworth's 2016 film "Ghostbusters" vouched for the actor as not just another pretty face on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show." Melissa McCarthy gushed, "He's so nice and he's so funny, like — it's too much!"

"Thor: Ragnarok" star Tessa Thompson, who has worked with Hemsworth on multiple films, likewise sung his praises in an interview with ET. "I like everything, pretty much, about Chris Hemsworth," Thompson said. "As an actor ... he's incredibly gifted at comedy and actually, at everything." Hemsworth's "Men In Black: International" co-star spoke highly of not only his talents, but also Hemsworth's demeanor as a co-star. "When he comes on to a set, he knows everybody's names, he makes everybody happy just by being there," she shared. "That's really something that is very, very rare."
