Rubber Boulder Incident at Walt Disney World's Indiana Jones Show Injures Staff Member
At Walt Disney World in Florida, during the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular! show, a rubber boulder prop weighing about 400 pounds rolled off its track toward the audience. A staff member stepped into the path of the moving prop and was knocked to the ground. Disney has stated that the employee is recovering from the incident.
The event occurred during a live recreation of a scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark featuring Indiana Jones outrunning a giant boulder. Despite the boulder's rubber composition, it moved off its track unexpectedly, prompting bystanders to note that the staff member's actions likely saved the audience from harm.
Disney has emphasized that safety remains a core priority and announced that it will modify the show element as its safety team reviews the circumstances surrounding the incident.
