During filming for his recent globe-spanning series Limitless, Avengers star Chris Hemsworth discovered via genetic testing that he has an increased risk of Alzheimer's.

The news came as a shock for the Australian actor, particularly as his 71-year-old dad, Craig, has recently been diagnosed with the disease.

Although Craig is in the early stages, Alzheimer's is already affecting his short-term memory, and this has inspired Hemsworth to take him on a very special memoryboosting road trip.
