When he is not saving the universe, it turns out Thor surfs. 

Chris Hemsworth, the actor who plays Thor in the Marvel films, is in Vancouver filming a movie and took time off to catch some waves on the island this weekend.

CTV Vancouver Island reports the Australian actor posted a photo of himself wearing a wet suit in Tofino.

“Not sure if we’re robbing banks or surfing but it’s damn cold in Canada. Well worth it though, what a beautiful place,” the post reads.

Last week, he recorded a video praising Vancouver’s iconic scenery.

The actor also made a surprise appearance at a World Rugby Sevens series at BC Place.
