If you were going to have anyone come to your rescue in a burning building, we reckon Hugh Jackman would be a welcome face in a crisis.
And luckily for Zac Efron, he was there to save the day on the set of their new movie, musical The Greatest Showman, when pyrotechnics got a bit out of hand.
"It started to get late, and some of the pyrotechnics got a little bit too hot," Efron told MTV at CinemaCon.
"We burst out of the building [with Hugh carrying me]. It looked great on camera. We didn't know it [at the time], but it was pretty intense.
"I watched playback, and he saved me from a burning building. It later exploded that night. It was a set, but it later burned down."
We can confirm that a fire did break out on that set, when some lights crashed into a building, but thankfully no one was hurt

"It was pretty awesome," he added. "Hugh Jackman saving you from a burning building? It's every girl's dream."
Jackman is both producing and starring in The Greatest Showman, which is based on the life of the Ringling Bros boss and eccentric showman PT Barnum.
It reunites Oscar winners Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, who worked on the music for La La Land.
The Greatest Showman will arrive in US cinemas on Christmas Day (December 25).
