Taking to the set in a pair of bright orange shorts, striped socks, Nike trainers and a pink sheet tied around his neck, Efron did well to display his rippling muscles. 

Once the director gave Zac his cue, the handsome actor was seen clutching a bin bag as he leapt over a fire pit as party goers watched on.

Seemingly shooting scenes for some sort of challenge, the High School Musical star did a few takes of the same shot before running off in another direction.
