It was the scene that stole the limelight in the Vacation trailer.
Now, Chris Hemsworth has revealed to get maximum impact in the scene, he spent hours trying on different sized prosthetic penises and in the end, he chose the biggest size of them all.

'We went bigger, bold!' Chris Hemsworth revealed at the Vacation premiere in LA on Tuesday that his scene stealing moment in his underwear was aided by the biggest prosthetic penis they could find
Laughing about the experience, the 31-year-old actor admitted: 'I was intimidated by that set and that scene and oh man, but this is why I got into the business to have fun, and this is fun.'
The handsome hunk confessed he couldn't help but laugh when he walked into the room to film the scene, saying: 'It was embarrassing, hilarious and probably more for other people than me.'
In the scene Chris's character in the film, Stone Crandall, walks into his brother-in-law's bedroom in his boxer briefs, with his extra large fakery in the front on full display.
He also shows off his washboard abs, which co-star Ed Helms joked about on the red carpet at the premiere.
Scene stealer: Chris's underwear scene in the trailer for the film took over the internet
'This is why I got into the business, to have fun': The Australian actor told E! News reporter Marc Malkin that while it was embarrassing it was a hilarious moment and the sort of thing he got into acting to do
'I didn't know his abs were going to be that amazing - I actually washed my clothes on his abs, I used his abs as an actual washboard,' he told Marc.
The Hangover star added that he knew about the size of Chris's prosthetic penis ahead of filming the scene because 'they moulded it off me'.
Co-writers and directors of the project, Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley, called the scenario with Chris in the office trying on the range of goods 'The weirdest, hottest couple hours,'

'I hope we see him do a lot more comedy': Ed Helms (left) praised Chris's comedic timing and said fans will enjoy seeing a different side to the action hero
Ed previously told Access Hollywood, the key to the scene wasn't Chris's obvious bulge but his comedic timing, a different side to the Thor star then fans are used to.
'That scene with the underwear sight gag, I think people look at that and kind of quickly assume, "Oh it's funny because of the underwear sight gag." But it's not, that's not why it's funny. It's funny because of Chris' performance," he explained.
'I could barely make it through filming [the underwear scene],' he added, saying: 'I hope we see him do a lot more comedy.'
Vacation opens in cinemas around Australia, August 20.
Stealing the spotlight: Chris and his wife Elsa Pataky attended the Vacation premiere in Los Angeles earlier this week
Go nude... in sandals like Elsa's this summer
What a stylish couple these two make.
Chris Hemsworth and his wife Elsa Pataky attended the Los Angeles premiere of his new movie, Vacation, last night and while Chris looked dapper in a tailored blue suit, Elsa stole the spotlight in a pretty nude lace dress and heels.
Neutral tones can be tricky to pull off but this is a lovely look on the Spanish actress and we especially love those strappy sandals. They're by stateside footwear designer Brian Atwood and are the perfect addition to any look, regardless of the color palette.
Nude heels are so versatile you can wear them with jeans, your little black dress and even a floor-length gown. Unfortunately, these exact shoes have now sold out but click (right) to buy a similar style by Brian Atwood in pink at Saks Fifth Avenue.
Or stick to nude shades with our edit below. New Look has a dead ringer for Elsa's heels or spend even less at Prettylittlething.com.
