An employee at Walt Disney World got injured while trying to halt a massive runaway prop boulder during the Indiana Jones live show at the theme park.

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — A worker at Florida’s Walt Disney World was hurt while attempting to prevent a large prop boulder from rolling into the audience during the Indiana Jones live show.

During the “Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular” held at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, a worker was knocked down by the 400-pound (181-kilogram) boulder. The prop had veered off its track on Tuesday and was heading towards the audience when another worker managed to stop it just in time.

Due to privacy concerns, Disney did not disclose the specifics of the worker’s injuries.

Following the incident, one of the scheduled shows on Tuesday was canceled. On Wednesday, the performances were altered to exclude the prop boulder. Disney stated it is investigating the cause of the prop’s unexpected movement off track.

“We’re focused on supporting our cast member, who is recovering,” Disney said in a statement. “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.”

The show is based on the Indiana Jones films and recreates an early scene in the first film, “Raiders of the Lost Ark.”
