The first Sunday of September sees Australians all over the nation posting pictures of their patriarch for Father's Day, so it's only fitting that Chris Hemsworth paid Instagram homage to his own dad with a throw back to rival all throw backs.

The snap shows Pappa Hemsworth as a paragon of "Aussie dad," with the chiselled good looks of his famous Asgardian son. Understandably the posts' comment section erupted with thirsty appreciation for the father of four who, arguably, is a pretty a hot dad.

Comments ranged from "OMG like father like son!" to "I can see where you boys get half of your good looks 😜 lol," to the more subdued, but no less lustful "Love ❤ the short shorts on your Dad."
