Elsa Pataky marked her milestone 50th birthday in characteristically fearless fashion, taking a daring leap from the rocks beside a waterfall.

The Spanish actress looked decades younger as she showcased her incredibly toned figure in a bright green thong bikini during the outdoor adventure.

Elsa appeared completely fearless as she launched herself through the air with her arms outstretched before plunging into the water below. Other images showed her posing confidently on the rocks and cooling off beneath the powerful waterfall.

Her husband, Chris Hemsworth, shared the photographs and videos on Instagram alongside a loving tribute to his wife.

"Happy birthday to the forever adventurous, fun loving, good times a rollin, gorgeous @elsapataky," the Thor star wrote, adding heart and kissing emojis.

Born in Madrid on July 18, 1976, Elsa began her acting career in Spain before gaining international recognition through roles in films including Snakes on a Plane.

She became best known to global audiences as police officer Elena Neves in the Fast & Furious franchise, first appearing in 2011's Fast Five before returning for several instalments.

Elsa later took on another physically demanding role as army captain JJ Collins in the 2022 Netflix action thriller Interceptor, which Chris executive produced. Her recent credits also include Poker Face, Carmen and Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

Elsa and Chris began dating in 2010 after being introduced through their representatives and married later that year. They share daughter India Rose, 14, and 12-year-old twin sons Tristan and Sasha.

The couple relocated from Los Angeles to Byron Bay in 2015, choosing to raise their children away from the intensity of Hollywood and embrace the privacy, natural beauty and outdoor lifestyle of northern New South Wales.

As she enters a new decade, Elsa is also branching out professionally with her first design collaboration with Byron Bay fashion label Spell.

"Twelve years ago, I discovered Spell. A year ago, we began designing a collection together. Today, I share it with you," she announced on Instagram.

"It's been amazing and I hope you love every piece as much as we loved bringing it to life."
