Disney worker hurt stopping 180-kg fake boulder from hitting audience
A worker at Walt Disney World is "recovering" after being injured by a 400-lb (180kg) runaway fake boulder prop in an incident that was caught on video, the Florida theme park confirmed.
The incident took place at the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular! during a live recreation of a famous scene from the film.
Video shows the boulder rolling towards the audience as a staff member jumps into its path, preventing it from reaching the crowd.
"We're focused on supporting our cast member, who is recovering," Disney said in a statement on Wednesday. "Safety is at the heart of what we do, and that element of the show will be modified as our safety team completes a review of what happened." Read more
