Chris Hemsworth praises daughter India after she wins all-boys bull-riding competition

Chris Hemsworth has praised his 14-year-old daughter, India Rose, after she won a bull-riding competition in which she was the only girl competing.

The actor shared footage from the event on Instagram, describing his daughter as a “savage” after her victory. “Only girl in the comp and took home the win,” Hemsworth wrote, adding that it was a “proud moment”.

“Seven? Why seven? You have to stay on it for eight,” she told her father.

“Eight seconds. What do I know?” Hemsworth replied.

The competition footage shows India holding on with one hand as the bull bucks across the dirt arena before she eventually falls. Page Six reported that the ride lasted about nine seconds.

India had previously tried bull riding during a family rodeo outing in January 2025. Her mother, Elsa Pataky, shared footage from the event showing India and one of her younger brothers riding bulls.

Pataky called India a “cowgirl” in the video and wrote that watching her children ride nearly gave her a heart attack.

India has also taken part in other outdoor activities. In November 2025, Hemsworth shared footage of her riding a dirt bike and clearing a jump.

“My girl absolutely sending it last weekend!” he captioned the post, while thanking those who had helped her learn to jump.
