Zac Efron Ups the Ante While Eating Spicy Wings | Hot Ones

they do they have amazing pies careful around your eyes there is there be careful around your eyes hey what's going on everybody for first we feast I'm Sean Evans and you're watching hot ones it's the show with hot questions and even hotter wings and today we're joined by Zac Efron he's an actor you know from films like the greatest showman neighbors and Ted Bundy extremely wicked he also has a YouTube channel with a casual million plus subs as well as a brand new series on the way it's called killing Zac Efron it's set to hit kwibi this spring Zac Efron welcome to the show thanks for having me man that was awesome good intro I know that you're an adventurous eater how are you around spicy food something happened when I was traveling internationally I just I thought I could eat spicy food I thought it was a healthy food it's healthy spicy food either a good one even but I went it somewhere to a couple countries that really put a lot of spice into their food and learn to respect it yeah I almost died and then like came back and I have a healthy respect now for for sauce [Music] have you going already she's diving right in those delicious how can a piece of cake so I'm watching your new quip you showed killing Zac Ephron it's clear that you have an affinity for extreme situations like going deep into these dangerous jungle to hunt crocodiles is part of the appeal of shooting in these remote locations is that there are thousands of miles away from Hollywood like are you kind of interested in the fact that you're kind of a escaping the Hollywood machine even though you're obviously bringing cameras along for the journey that's really it's an interesting that you put it that way yes skate like partly I call it escaping I think it definitely is escaping but going on trips like on the weekend going into the woods backpacking camping rock climbing these things are like very engrained in Who I am as a person so that's my therapy I do that to get away and to sort of have some sort of equilibrium helps me think and process I have no trouble sleeping when I'm camping like I can go out there and reset for a weekend and I'll come back and I'll help me struggle city sleeping in LA no matter where I am but it's fun to get out there it's fun to bring friends so yeah get outside so that's a prescription we are should we add some is that how should we do people do that or these like I'll see older this is an aesthetic thing well uh it's happened once before Shia LaBeouf came in here and he actually drives it up yeah so play that however you want [ __ ] it let's go all right how do you tell how do you tell how hot it's gonna be by eating it okay [Music] [Music] well at least if I'm trying I'm trying out the pouring method it's on the early side of this that's smart hmm it's on your YouTube channel you have this show gym time where you workout with everyone from NFL stars to Victoria's Secret models having stepped into the world of so many different Fitness obsessives is their kind of training that you respect the most on a sheer grit level that's a good question um for me athletes are like movie stars I would say you know it's when I get to meet where I hang out with somebody who's been inspiration to me through whatever their art or craft is that's really fun and if they want to train with me unreal I'm getting this to peek behind the curtain can sort of just have fun with them and see them in their element because that's all they do is they train and some of them are savage I'm always amazed by certain actors abilities to transform their bodies based on the requirements of whatever character they're playing from movie to movie definitely what's the difference and how you and your trainer might approach plane like a Baywatch lifeguard versus playing like Ted Bundy oh man another great question that was actually a really important time to do pay watch cuz I realized that like when I was done with that movie I don't ever want to be in that good of shape again really it's like it's I was so it was so art you're working with almost no wiggle room right you've got things like water under your skin that you're worrying about like making your six pack into a four pack [ __ ] like that that's just like not it's just stupid no it's not it's just not real I'm like I'm happy that that it worked I'm happy that it got me through it I may do it again if it was something worthwhile but we'll wait till it gets to that I don't need to I'm good take care of your heart take care of your brain you're good [Music] oh sure let me hit that he's like yeah no I don't want to how many of these shows have you done this is uh believe it or not Season eleven approaching 200 episodes set across from 200 famous people doing this that's awesome man that's so cool that's I feel like I knew it was gonna be a high number but 200 just of course you don't want to pour out any extra sauce no but you know what I like I like the new experience you know that's what I think is funny about this is that in the hundreds of times that we've done it there have been so many different ways that it's approached cool you know it is a good this whole setup is just money man like this is why you go out to eat wings so you can be with your homies man this is awesome so I'm fascinated by your signed baseball collection which isn't just something that you spent millions of dollars on it's something that dates back to you being a little kid chasing down homerun balls at Giants games that's exactly right do you have a favorite story or a baseball that to you is like a crown jewel in the collection Dusty Baker the coach of the Giants at the time he drove by and he was on a motorcycle so he didn't have a window he could roll up so he saw like there was a couple people waiting for him I ran up with a baseball and I was like we signed on this you know I had like a blue pen and the sweet spot of a brand new ball and I showed it to him and dusty was like oh I can't right now I got to go to church and that just me it's usually like don't have time right he's like I'll be back in 30 minutes he left and I thought I was never gonna see him again 45 minutes later the motorcycle came roaring in and I was like no way and he literally pointed right at me he's like come over here and I walked over he's like you still got that ball I was like yeah thank you sir somebody signed it so that one meant a lot to me just cuz Dusty Baker like doubled back from church who knows what he did but it was pretty awesome it was really cool that I was like I'd like bleached hair I was a little kid just yeah awesome while filming Charlie st. cloud did you pick up anything interesting when you were working alongside Atlanta Braves pitching coach Roger McDowell oh my gosh man blast from the past we had to play catch but I could play catch at that point I played baseball grown-up so which is good cuz sometimes in the movies you never know like sometimes your watch is why he was there cuz there's a couple of those like what's the one I'm thinking of War of the Worlds moments look like [Music] I like mustard I like mustard a lot so as you mentioned you're a seasoned traveler criss crossing across the globe your own adventures and then of course even your movie roles if you could spend one month surfing anywhere where would you go mm probably Costa Rica I think Bali's pretty red ball these are awesome right now like um I think I just have so many friends in Costa Rica that that would be this is just got hot do you have a favorite golf course in Hawaii there's just insane golf last time only coughing I went with uh I should not touch my eyes right that's that's anyone done that uh I would say in about forty five percent of the episodes really well it's hard no way man oh geez I'm so happy I just touched my nose because I can feel it yeah but the eyes because the water so you'll think to yourself oh I just I just gotta wipe my eye but then you have sauce of the cross-pollination they're late you're late your eyeballs on fire oh man I'm ready for the next one I'm ready for the next one I said it's Costa Rica and what's and what was the next one who favorite golf course I don't know there's one in Valencia I used to sneak onto the links that's my favorite one all right great memories let's go on to los calientes Rojo here oh those calientes real cool [Music] first we feast man it's a cool name so Zack we have a recurrence segment on our show called explain that Graham where we do a deep dive on our guest Instagram pull interesting pictures that need more context so we'll put it up here on the monitor and then you just tell us the bigger story okay the major form is oh yeah they're not from mine like for example man that's all my oh that's great here you are Jim Gary's pinching your nipple it seems like an image that requires more explanation I went to Hawaii I was I was staying with my friend Kenny Ortega he directed High School Musical this is a couple years after and he said you want to I'm friends with Jim Carrey you want to go to his house so we walked down the beach and there was this really cool Bush sort of up against the beach it was like along the beach and it was like a berm when we walked like into it and it formed a tunnel and I had never really been in a plant tunnel before so but it was the path from the beach we walked through it and I see Kenny like hey and then I looked at the second story and unlike the second story of the building [Music] Jim Carrey was there just standing on the balcony he was like oh it was really like Ace Ventura pet detective and that's one of my favorite movies growing up so it was pretty cool he's a very nice guy and one of my frickin heroes so that's it that's the explanation behind that photo I don't know why I said my nipple this is your eggs big bite Martin garrix yeah big friend of the program we call big bite Martin garrix so what really was yeah and then is this average with the bites he's a savage with the bites I met him totally on accident that night we was walking down the street in Amsterdam and I see of all things in Amsterdam a crowd of like video cameras what looked like to me to be like TMZ or foot photographer type people my lips and then and then suddenly someone's tapping me on the shoulder and I'm pay its the person tapping he was like hey man what's up and I was looking it was Martin and he's like I'm from here dude it's my birthday like tomorrow what do you want to come to a concert and I was like yeah sure so I quit what I I went to hang out with Martin he like organized his setlist and I was just chilling watching him and then next thing I know I was up on stage and like that that little booth he's out with the DJ booth I was like underneath it for a whole set it's just like down below and I was just like what's going on and he's like this is sick right I'm like yeah it was really funny all right next up this is very uh mentor-mentee looking to me actually it was really cool about that night and this kind of sticks in my mind is like we weren't talking at that point and then I was just kind of gonna wait for him and sure enough he like had his hat down low and when the ball went to the other side he was like hey man do you want to like go get breakfast tomorrow and I was like yeah dude so he like gave me he wrote my phone number down and then handed it to me while the other team was scoring and nobody saw and I took it and he cooked me breakfast the next day at his house would he cook up he cooked he actually he cooked waffles and then he burnt those and then he made pancakes it was awesome I don't know I had a billion questions for him at that point definitely dealing with too much paparazzi presents in my life and like sitting next to Leo I was just like dude how do you how have you handled this for so long he was like frankly you're getting in a little bit different you know it's a little bit yeah didn't you like look at the monitors and be like yeah well I've never had that's so like um damn how do you know who'd you talk to you Jesus I really think my publicist knows this Jesus man who'd you talk to you do you know other [ __ ] I'm gonna say it now [ __ ] sorry screw it I'm gonna say it now uh I pulled up and lick these some cars followed me this was just a normal routine it's just like leave my driveway and like ten cars would follow he was like yeah there's never this many cars here and he was like that's insane dude and I saw in his eyes a little bit of like the feeling that I consistently was having all the time which was just like stress and anxiety and he was like don't worry about it man it's it's your year good and I really appreciate that he's like that time you know you feel good about it help me a little bit so that's the biggest hand you can extend I feel like in Hollywood is looking out for someone younger so rock on leo thank you buddy I just have a man let's have a feeling oh yeah well that's a good system for years as better remember hooking half split numb [Music] so the paparazzi talk was actually a rather poetic segue into this question because over the years we've had some incredible paparazzi evasion techniques discussed on this show when you think on your own experiences is there a maneuver that you've done to evade the paps that over the years may be a story that you're particularly proud of that one's not for almost like a two or three year period of my life I drove through various Lots pulling in on one side of Warner Brothers or Universal just going in one of their ten entrances and then I don't know staying in there for 15 minutes and leaving through one and trying to catch him not looking and then if that didn't work I would have to go back and go somewhere else a lot of people they don't really believe you or they think like just just live your life that's movie star problems yes yeah you're talking to such high-class problems and we are yeah it's it's a ridiculous thing and it feels stupid to complain about and like part of me doesn't even want us to do it but since this is the forum for stories my dad was skeptical about the paparazzi so we pulled out he was driving my little brothers in the car and they start following us and I was like they're definitely following and he's like yeah right and I said it was the car behind us like a you know a 4runner a beige 4runner and he's like yeah so like yeah well that's the car that always follows me behind that is gonna be a you know an su to another this SUV a GMC something and and he was like started to realize that I was right and he just didn't want to accept it he just couldn't accept it so we drove to the Catalina Expressway one by one with him realizing the amount of cars and the building anger inside of him was just hilarious he was like this legal this this should be I can't that guy you told me that guy right you hey you and I'm just like dad you need to relax man I can chill and he's like this happens all the time to you I can't believe this is this is insane I don't even really believe it I don't even think that's right that guy's not he has a camera oh my god he's shooting us what is it I'm like daddy you're giving him exactly what he wants Manning that's a show [Music] I've definitely like had weed maybe stargazer trip I'm not probably not gonna do too much I assume this has got to be that we're getting up to a serious is it okay I've been warned oh I can feel it already that's the smell this is snow [Music] hmm is it true that Tom Cruise gave you an impromptu tour of his motorcycle hangar yeah man those rap red Ducati Tom Cruise pulls up in the red Ducati I'm with he had a helmet I think he he pulled up if there was I wasn't a hanger it was kind of like this and like yeah they were air he had air like legit airplanes all parked in there he flies by on a red Ducati just like in mi3 like I did I hear it and it's just like flying so cool I hope that's him he doubles back around Tom Cruise and he pulls in and he got got off the bike but then I think he left the bike running a little bit because the as soon as you went to get off it you like swung his leg over and the bike kind of sketched forward and he went like whoa and then it stopped again and so I walked forward and I was gonna shake his hand he went to get off again and it revved up again and he went a little further forward like starting up it was just it was a funny moment mm-hmm I'm still super super cool what's the backstory on breaking your hand and neighbors as I understand it you had to get an emergency surgery to keep from derail in the film that's a bit of a build up that's that that's what's that said no all right that's edit not built-up sounds leo I broke his hand and then didn't go to the hospital like saved the booty man you said something about how actors will often look for excuses not to do they're very easy job yes that's yeah I'm not the opposite man I'm a workhorse I like it man that's just leaders that one's a leader man just you wait I'm not gonna touch it not touching it everyone everybody's laughing right now my nose be running you to bomb beyond and sander figure I'll pop the top and tell the wheels fall off and tell them walking around these guys are all laughing is this a secret sauce everybody knows about this one is this where the wheels fall off the bombs got something stuck in it stop let's go it's not make new make sense yeah I like to dive into that one at the same time as the guest so that we start to oh yeah now we're not in our diving it whoo sever that's a good one I heard you say that if you weren't an actor you'd be a chef what what does zac efron restaurant look like would it be you know global flavors inspired by your travels or would it be like a gym rat fuel up station with like steamed brown rice and unseasoned chicken breast oh man you know what I really like food I've traveled to places based on some of the destinations that I'm going to eat at oh and do people I'm gonna cry man these are see you cried a little bit just here at the table come on see we talk about anything it seems like I'm gonna be emotional about everybody's so knowingly looking in there and that's very um do you have an all-time favorite food city oh man Chicago is great Chicago has to shout out Chicago yeah man absolutely shut down boy that's right all my friends are in Chicago Chicago Chicago ins targets Chicago my sand away Obispo mm-hmm have you ever been really over and a more specifically hmm yeah have you ever been to that apple farm in yeah we've got a tremendous like pies and [ __ ] they do they have amazing pies careful around your eyes there is there careful around your eyes thanks we're looking out for each other here actually I stayed at that wheel house one you know like they're big into the like if you can get one of you houses yeah we stayed there yeah that's awesome that's my heart that I was just there the other day I did it like each cleanup in Morro Bay which was pretty close by when I stopped back at AG and like was at a gas station and I just I was always around growing up but it looked way nicer and I pulled in in this truck saw me with my window rolled I was in the backseat this car this guy saw me he was like older than me you know he's older than both of us and he was like Zac Efron I like looked at him reflexively I was like what's up and he goes hey JEE and I was like AG he's like yeah and then like all four windows rolled down and like four guys what a ga ga gee so I don't know why but I'm starting to feel like a hometown hero I want to put a lot of happy [Music] [Music] our mom's still the most intense and Savage fans to meet in the wild yeah how do you do that tell you that [ __ ] you know what I think moms are a little bit less they have less of a guard up in a good way dad's there's this weird thing of like we're all men here right so it's like they don't know if they want to admit it or not and for the longest time a lot of guys would be like you know what and then like later in the same night I would see that person and they would be like little drunk singing a high school musical song I'm like you could just tell me when I walked you know Thanks what's the biggest difference between catching a football from Drew Brees and then just like playing catch with your brother on the beach like is the rotation is there something about it that snaps different 100% when drew brees when Drew Brees goes and like throws a pass first of all he could be like 50 yards away and when it comes out to you just see a tight circle that's like not even visiting looking at spinning it just looks like it's vibrating or wobbling when as soon as he like lazily throws it it's in your face and you're catching it and it's like going by you've got to hang on to that thing you got to really have that diamond shape in your hand so you won't catch it all right Zach Efron all right [Music] this is the last dab we call it the last dab because it's tradition around here to put a little extra on the last wing we don't everyone makes it to the over this bar this is rarified air okay good Zach with all the sauces all over the plate it's been quite the
