Thor. To some, he's Chris Hemsworth dressed up as the mighty Asgardian god of thunder running around with The Avengers doing Avengers business and using his enchanted hammer Mjolnir.
To others, he's the actual Norse hammer-wielding god associated with thunder, lighting, storms, oak trees, strength, the protection of mankind, hallowing, healing and fertility.
But to the Royal Norwegian navy, Thor is a 30-year-old man who goes by the name of Lasse L. Matberg.

You can see why:
Matberg has amassed a huge following on Instagram thanks to his 6ft 6in frame and his uncanny resemblance to an actual mythological god.

His largely female following is only ever growing and Lasse, a lieutenant from Stavenger, Norway, is offered some very strange things in his messages.
Speaking in the Daily Mail, he said: "They want to marry me or ask me to make them pregnant."
Apparently he's not just a total fucking tank and actually has an extremely sensitive side too. Take for example the pictures of him holding animals and smiling...
Somehow I can see his follower-count ticking over nicely over the next few days.

And if that's not enough Avenger for you, here you go...
