LAKE BUENA VISTA, FL — A cast member at Disney World was hurt on Tuesday when a 400-pound prop boulder used as part of the Indiana Jones stunt show at Hollywood Studios began to roll toward the audience, according to published reports.

In a TikTok video, the boulder can be seen bouncing off a ridge and rolling toward the audience during the stunt show’s temple sequence, which is a recreation of the opening scene of the 1981 film, "Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark," starring Harrison Ford, reports say.

One of the cast members can then be seen stepping out in front of the runaway rubber boulder used in the stunt in an attempt to stop it, but is instead knocked over by it, and others running to help him, according to WESH TV.
