The decision, he said at the time, coincided with an episode of the show on death, as well as one in which Hemsworth agreed to take a genetic test, which ultimately revealed that his risk of developing Alzheimer's is eight to 10 times higher than that of the general population — due to the fact that Hemsworth has two copies of APOE4 (the apolipoprotein E gene), one from his mom and one from his dad. After learning the results on the show, Hemsworth said in a confessional that «the idea that I won't be able to remember the life I've experienced, or my wife, my kids, is probably my biggest fear.»However, Hemsworth said, the decision to take a brief career break was not as connected to the genetic test as it may have seemed.«It all got a little sort of blown out of proportion,» he shared.
